What we do
01 02
Two lines of work
We read a project the way the lender, the investor and the operator will read it — market, engineering, regulation and finance together — and fix before due diligence what would stop the signature.
Project development
Praxys also develops projects: we take on commercial and financial structuring, coordinate the advisors and answer for the outcome, not just the recommendation.
When to call us
Five situations where we make a difference
- The bank asked for a model that will survive due diligence.We build the model and the financial story the way the lender will test them: explicit assumptions, scenarios and debt coverage.
- The project needs a partner, and you do not want to lose control.We design the equity structure, governance and shareholders’ agreement, and lead the negotiation.
- The debt has outgrown what the cash flow can carry.We restructure tenor, collateral and instruments to give the business room to breathe without destroying value.
- You are bidding for a concession, PPP or tender.We close the economic proposal and the financing plan that support the bid.
- You need to know what it is worth — to buy, sell or negotiate with a partner.Independent valuation, with the reasoning explained to whoever has to decide.
