RoleWorking alongside the lead adviser

The project

Venetus reviewed the vendor model, rebuilt the price decks for crude, LNG and domestic gas, and built and ran the valuation that underpinned the offers: NPV waterfall, EV-to-equity bridge, cost of capital, and NPV and IRR sensitivities across discount rates, debt structures and price scenarios, with option pricing for the earn-out. Alongside the analysis, Venetus prepared the transaction timetable, document checklist, offer letter annexes, SPA issues list and board materials for the consortium members.

The result

The analysis the consortium needed to price and support its offers across three rounds.
