Quantify uncertainty. Minimize risk.
Hanis Consulting transforms environmental risk into actionable insights using cutting-edge statistical analysis to safeguard your investments and elevate decision-making.

With Hanis Consulting’s Quantitative Environmental Risk Analysis, our client turned complexity into an opportunity to preserve their deal value and streamline negotiations.
Case Study: Driving Seller Success Through Strategic Insights
The Challenge:
A seller divesting a business asset with operations across multiple states and internationally faced significant challenges. As a stock-based transaction, the buyer sought to reduce the purchase price, citing potential environmental liabilities as justification. The seller needed a precise, data-driven solution to not only address these claims but also maintain control of the negotiation process and mitigate long-term risks.

- Real-Time Updates: As the transaction progressed, our analysis was dynamically updated with new data, ensuring the client had the most accurate and relevant insights to support their position.
- Targeted Negotiations: Leveraging the strength of our quantitative analysis, the seller effectively pushed back on the buyer’s proposed price reduction. The data provided clear evidence that mitigated environmental risks were being effectively addressed, preserving the original deal value.
- Risk Mitigation Strategies: We helped structure the transaction to minimize the seller’s post-closing exposure using environmental holdbacks, liability transfers, and insurance coverage tailored to the identified risks.
The Results:
Our unique approach delivered exceptional outcomes for the client:
- Preserved Deal Value: Armed with robust data and analysis, the client successfully countered the buyer’s attempts to reduce the purchase price, protecting the financial integrity of the transaction.
