- WHY EVOLUTIOWe understand and tailor your needs
- Transactions – Evolutios’ head of transactions has been an investor for more than 10 years, being involved in more than 30 purchase- and sales transactions in Norway as well as internationally. As an investor, he was also involved in post merger integration and monitoring, both operationally and from a management position to secure planned value creation. Extensive experience from both successful and less successful acquisitions, enables authentic and realistic advice and recommendations, focusing on industrial rationale and value creation, instead of solely focusing on the transaction. As an investor, he has been involved in the valuation of more than 400 companies. This provides insight and understanding for what is important for potential buyers and how to best prepare companies for sale, while structuring the sales process to ensure highest possible value.
- Valuations – Evolutio’s head of valuations has a broad valuation experience ranging from technical valuations for accounting and tax purposes to practical valuations for investment purposes. He has experience in disputes in the District Court and the Court of Appeal, has been an equity analyst in Pareto Securities and has used valuations as an important tool in making investment decisions in Herkules Capital.
- Improvement Projects - Our experienced staff have completed a large number of improvement projects and therefore has an unique implementation expertise to offer clients. Evolutio handpicks people with direct relevant experience for each improvement project.
- Management for hire – Our experience is that many companies know what they would like to do and have their ideas planned out, but that the challenge is implementation, capacity and expertise. Instead of offering a large consultancy team we offer operational people who can sit with the client to implement the strategies.
- Executive search – We have experienced how important it is to find the right person at the right time and place, and how much this impacts the value creation and the implementation capability of a company. In addition we have on several occasions experienced how much money and not to mention lost time and value creation a wrong recruitment can result in. Furthermore, we have worked operationally as CFO and as a sparring partner to a number of CEO’s and CFO’s and thereby have direct insight in to a client’s need. With this background in addition to a broad network and thorough analytical approach, we are able to find the best people for the right positions within economics and finance.
