Investment project analysis — decisions based on numbers, not intuition
About the service
New production lines, IT products, network expansion, or entering foreign markets — every project requires capital and carries risks. Mistakes made at the evaluation stage are costly: overestimated CAPEX, overly optimistic sales, ignored currency and interest rate risks, underestimated tax and regulatory requirements. The result — zero NPV, failed IRR, cash gaps, and lost time. In cross-border projects, additional challenges arise from differences in regulations between Ukraine and the EU, as well as bank and investor requirements, local taxes, and compliance.

A budget is a plan for an existing business; a project’s financial model describes a future asset, including assumptions, scenarios, and valuation.
We compare NPV, IRR, and Payback against the company’s thresholds and conduct stress tests and sensitivity analysis.
We use FX and rate scenarios, apply hedging where needed, and maintain the required liquidity reserves.
Yes. We align assumptions, taxes, and reporting with the standards expected by European banks and investors and adapt the structure to jurisdiction-specific requirements.
Investment project analysis is a systematic assessment of efficiency and risks before launching or financing an initiative.
The goal is to confirm the project’s economic feasibility and prepare it for presentation to owners, banks, and investors in Ukraine and the EU.
What the investment project assessment includes
- Financial model with P&L, Cash Flow, and Balance Sheet reports, including calculations of NPV, IRR, Payback, Profitability Index, and key covenants (DSCR, Net Debt/EBITDA).
- Assumption validation: prices/volumes, revenue structure, margins, CAPEX/OPEX, working capital requirements.
- Scenario modeling and sensitivity analysis for key drivers (FX rate, interest rate, price, volume, CAPEX). Monte Carlo simulations if required.
- WACC calculation and inclusion of cost of capital in cash flow discounting.
- Financing structure (equity/debt): tranche schedule and assessment of the project’s debt service capacity.
- Tax and compliance: accounting for VAT, local taxes, and regulatory requirements; process differences for Ukraine and the EU.
- Investment memorandum (Teaser/Memo) and presentation materials for lenders / investors.
