Why Houlihan Capital
What Sets Us Apart Is How We're Structured
The firm is structured around three principles: independence, analytical rigor, and direct access to senior advisors on every engagement.
Specialized Markets
Experience in the Markets That Demand It Most
Some industries require more than standard valuation methodology. Our team has built specific expertise in sectors where regulatory complexity, non-traditional assets, and rapidly changing market conditions make generalist approaches inadequate.
Crypto & Digital Assets
Portfolio valuations that satisfy auditor and LP requirements in a rapidly evolving asset class.
Cannabis & Alternative Health
Regulatory-compliant valuations for operators navigating complex and evolving market conditions.
Private Equity & Venture Capital
Lifecycle support from initial investment through exit — portfolio valuations, fairness opinions, and M&A advisory.
How We Work
A Process Built for Consequential Work
Every engagement starts with a direct conversation about the situation, the timeline, and what the analysis needs to accomplish. From there, a senior advisor owns the work from start to finish.
