APEX Financial Evaluation

Simple, Complex Models Handled with Ease

Enter simple models into the program in minutes, with the results available in seconds. Complicated models require little added effort, even with complex scenarios like these: Properties with multiple ore types, commodities, and smelter or refinery schedules; production costs that vary over time; multiple royalty terms; multiple ore bodies mined simultaneously by differing methods; equity, loan or joint venture financing.

The Results You Need

APEX produces a complete cash flow schedule for your project and then computes the projected net present value, pay-back period, and internal rate of return on either a before- or after-tax basis.

With the initial results computed, it is a simple matter to change any of the data items and determine what impact the change would have on the project economics, or you can proceed to determine breakeven values for any of the items and go on to conduct sensitivity and risk analyses in a variety of ways.

Breakeven Analysis

You can easily compute the breakeven value for any of the data items you entered, such as ore grade, production rate, stripping ratio, smelting charges, or mining costs

Risk and Sensitivity Analysis

Powerful risk and sensitivity modules allow you to examine the economic effects of variations in the data elements. By testing ranges of values, APEX allows you to work with data that might not be as accurate as you would like it to be. If you can tell APEX how accurate you think your data is, it will tell you how certain you can be of the results.

Report Print-out

Your report print-out contains a complete summary of data and results in a professional looking format suitable for independent presentation or inclusion in your project report. APEX also allows you the option of exporting your results to popular spreadsheet or word processing programs.

Help and Support Always Available

“Help” screens are available for virtually every data field; several tutorials are included in the manual; and of course, our staff is always here for support if you need us – anywhere in the world.
