Independent Valuation of Aviation Businesses & Assets, Backed by Deep Industry Expertise

The cost depends on the specific scope of the assignment. Pricing is influenced by the type of service (valuation, expert analysis, or consulting), the depth of analysis required, the volume of available data, the level of urgency, and whether an on-site inspection is necessary.

For example, a preliminary desktop valuation and a full expert report prepared for litigation involve very different scopes of work, a different number of specialists, and a different level of responsibility. For this reason, we first review your case, clarify the purpose of the engagement, the intended use of the report, and the data available. Only after that can we determine the cost.

At the initial stage, we can conduct a brief case assessment and provide a preliminary cost estimate.

Yes. Our reports are prepared for use in legally and financially significant proceedings. We follow professional valuation standards, disclose all assumptions, data sources, and valuation logic, and structure our reports so they are clear, transparent, and verifiable by third parties.

It is important to note that the final decision on acceptance always rests with the specific court, bank, or insurance company. Our role is to make the report as admissible as possible by ensuring methodological accuracy, reproducibility, and the defensibility of our conclusions.

We work on international assignments and can adapt the report format to meet the requirements of a specific country, court, or financial institution.

If the client has legal counsel or specific counterparty requirements, we coordinate the report format in advance to ensure it is suitable for use in the relevant jurisdiction.

Yes. This is one of the most practical uses of an independent valuation report.

At the pre-litigation stage, an independent report can help accelerate settlement discussions and support agreement on clear, objective terms, without escalating the matter to full legal proceedings.

Yes. This is a common situation in practice. Quite often, some documents are missing, data is fragmented, the operating history is incomplete, or business financials are not fully prepared.

We are experienced in working under these conditions, relying on available information, market data, and clearly stated, appropriate assumptions.

Yes. We can be engaged in an expert support capacity, including preparing calculations, issuing expert reports, and supporting your position throughout the proceedings. Where required, we also act as expert witnesses, in accordance with the rules and requirements of the applicable jurisdiction.

The difference lies in the scope and depth of analysis. A Desktop Appraisal is a remote format without a physical inspection. It is used when speed is critical, when a preliminary indication of value is sufficient, or when physical access to the aircraft is limited or not required.

A Full Appraisal includes a physical inspection of the aircraft and a review of the documentation. This increases accuracy and reduces the risk of later disagreements about the aircraft’s condition, configuration, or maintenance status.

A Comprehensive Appraisal is an in-depth format intended for transactions and complex cases, where expanded analysis, detailed justification, and a higher level of defensibility are required.

Yes. We regularly work on cases involving disputed asset status, damage, downtime, conflicting party positions, inconsistent data, insurance claims, and leasing disputes.

In such matters, transparency of calculations and a sound evidentiary basis are critical, as valuation figures are almost always subject to review and challenge. We structure our work from the outset so that conclusions can be clearly explained and effectively defended.

A CFO typically evaluates a business from the inside, based on management information, internal assumptions, and the company’s operational logic. We assess a business from the perspective of an external party such as an investor, buyer, lender, or court.

In addition to internal economics, we consider market context, industry-specific risks, cash flow sustainability, regulatory constraints and assumptions, asset structure, contract quality, and other factors that directly affect value in the aviation sector.

As a result, the client receives not just an internal calculation but an independent valuation that can be used in negotiations and formal procedures where a defensible, evidence-based position is required.

To begin, it is sufficient to describe the assignment and its objective: the purpose of the valuation or expert analysis, the timeline, and whether the subject is an asset or a business. From there, we identify which data is critical for your specific case.

If limited information is available at the outset, we will advise what is sufficient for a preliminary assessment and which documents should be obtained to proceed with a full engagement.
