Modelling & valuation

Numbers that withstand scrutiny.

The challenge

Investors and lenders will stress every assumption. A model that breaks under questioning — or a valuation you cannot defend — costs you credibility and, often, the deal.

What we do
  • Integrated three-statement financial models
  • DCF, comparable-company and precedent-transaction valuations
  • LBO and returns analysis for sponsors and management
  • Business plans, forecasts and budgets
  • Sensitivity, scenario and covenant-headroom analysis
  • Investor decks and information memoranda built on the model
Our process

How it works

Scope & assumptions

We agree the questions the model must answer and the key drivers, sourced from your data and the market.

Build

A formula-driven, auditable model with clean inputs, transparent logic and clear outputs.

Valuation

DCF and market approaches reconciled into a defensible range — the football field a counterparty respects.

Sensitivities

Scenario and sensitivity tables that show how the answer moves with the assumptions that matter.

Review & handover

A walkthrough so you own the narrative, plus a model you can keep using.

The IMAS edge

Finance and law, under one roof

Models built to bank and credit-committee standards — formula-driven, auditable and defensible — by someone who has sat on the lending side and knows exactly where a credit officer will push.

FAQ

Common questions

What modelling standard do you follow?

Institutional best practice — separation of inputs, calculations and outputs; consistent formulas; full auditability; and clear documentation. The output is something an analyst on the other side can follow.

Can you fix or audit an existing model?

Yes. We review for structural integrity, formula errors and hidden assumptions, and rebuild where the foundations are unsound.

Which valuation method is right for me?

It depends on the asset and the audience. We typically run several methods and reconcile them, because a single number rarely convinces a sophisticated counterparty.

Will I be able to use the model myself?

Yes — clarity and handover are part of the deliverable, so you can update and defend it after we finish.
