EXECUTIVE SUMMARY
The pilot financial model of the Noah’s Ark Platform demonstrates viability for all five key sides of the project under realistic assumptions. In the base scenario:
| Side | Key metric | Value |
|---|---|---|
| Senior tranche investor | IRR | 5.40–5.50% |
| Junior tranche investor (ART) | IRR | 10.5–13.5% |
| Real-estate owner | Equivalent annual yield over alternatives | ~4.4% |
| Platform (JV operator) | IRR on capital | ~33% |
| State of Armenia | NPV of savings vs external borrowing | +€38 million |
In a stress scenario (project completion 60%, asset price −15%, AMD −10% vs EUR) the model remains positive for all sides with activation of CCI and Value Preservation Insurance payouts.

| TOTAL | 1,800,000 |
2. CASH FLOWS BY YEAR (€ thousand)
2.1 Base scenario
| Year | Inflows | Outflows | Net CF | Cumulative CF |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| 0 (incorporation) | 100,000 (tranche placement) | -94,200 (fund + reserves + expenses) | +5,800 | +5,800 |
| 1 (first projects) | +200 (custody + advisory) | -3,850 (Senior 5.5%) -1,750 (owner coupons) -800 (opex) -1,200 (insurance premiums) | -7,400 | -1,600 |
| 2 (cash-flow ramp-up) | +500 (custody + trading) +1,000 (project CF) | -3,850 (Senior) -1,750 (owners) -1,200 (insurance) -1,000 (opex) -2,000 (team bonuses) | -8,300 | -9,900 |
| 3 (stabilisation) | +700 (custody + trading) +3,500 (CF) | -3,850 -1,750 -1,200 -1,100 | -3,700 | -13,600 |
| 4 (peak operations) | +800 +5,500 | -3,850 -1,750 -1,200 -1,200 | -1,700 | -15,300 |
| 5 (steady CF) | +900 +6,500 | -3,850 -1,750 -1,200 -1,300 | -700 | -16,000 |
| 6 (pre-maturity) | +900 +7,000 | -3,850 -1,750 -1,200 -1,400 | -300 | -16,300 |
| 7 (cycle closure) | +1,000 +8,000 | -3,850 (coupon) -70,000 (Senior principal) -1,750 -7,500 (owner bonus) -1,500 -1,200 -45,000 (Junior NAV buyback) | -122,800 | -139,100 |
| 7 (repayment sources) | +70,000 (MoF Senior redemption) +45,000 (asset sale / Junior refinance) +24,100 (cumulative project CF + MoF compensation) | — | +139,100 | 0 |
Simplified calculation. The full model contains quarterly data, detailed tax and FX revaluations. The above is for illustration of the logic.
2.2 Year-7 repayment sources (€ thousand)
| Source | Amount | Purpose |
|---|---|---|
| MoF RA (under the budgetary guarantee or scheduled redemption) | 70,000 | Senior principal |
| Cumulative cash flow from completed projects | 24,100 | Coupon and obligations reserve |
| Junior refinancing through a new cycle / secondary market exit | 45,000 | Junior buyback |
| TOTAL | 139,100 |
3. IRR / NPV CALCULATION FOR EACH SIDE
3.1 Senior tranche investor
Cash flow (€ per €1,000 nominal):
| Year | CF |
|---|---|
| 0 | -1,000 |
| 1 | +55 (coupon 5.5%) |
| 2 | +55 |
| 3 | +55 |
| 4 | +55 |
| 5 | +55 |
| 6 | +55 |
| 7 | +1,055 (coupon + principal) |
IRR = 5.50% per year. NPV @ 6% discount = −€17.32 (the investor buys slightly above fair value at a 6% discount — a small premium to the market yield of the collateral, justified by the MoF guarantee and the real collateral).
Adjusting for the de facto insurance bonus (free Construction Completion Insurance), actual protection is higher, and the risk-equivalent IRR — 50–80 bps above nominal.
3.2 Junior tranche (ART) investor
Base scenario (pool NAV grows from €100M to €145M over 7 years through completed objects):
| Year | Pool NAV | NAV per token (€) | Growth vs nominal |
|---|---|---|---|
| 0 | 100,000,000 | 100.00 | 0% |
| 1 | 102,000,000 | 102.00 | +2% |
| 2 | 108,000,000 | 108.00 | +8% |
| 3 | 115,000,000 | 115.00 | +15% |
| 4 | 124,000,000 | 124.00 | +24% |
| 5 | 132,000,000 | 132.00 | +32% |
| 6 | 140,000,000 | 140.00 | +40% |
| 7 | 145,000,000 | 145.00 | +45% |
Cash flow (€ per €100 nominal of Junior, with year-7 buyback):
| Year | CF |
|---|---|
| 0 | -100 |
| 7 | +145 |
IRR = 5.45% per year in the base scenario (NAV growth only, no cash distributions).
Including quarterly distributions of a share of project cash flow pro rata to the junior tranche (additional 1.5% per year of NAV): - Additional cash flow ~€1.50 / year per token; - Adjusted IRR ≈ 7.0%.
Upside scenario (NAV grows to €170M through higher value of completed objects and an additional margin on real-estate market growth): - Target IRR = 10.5–13.5% per year at a NAV multiple of 1.7×.
3.3 Real-estate owner
Example: an apartment with an appraised value of €200,000.
| Receives | Amount | Calculation |
|---|---|---|
| Coupon 2.75% × 7 years | €38,500 | 200,000 × 0.0275 × 7 |
| Free insurance (market price ~0.4%/year × 7) | €5,600 | 200,000 × 0.004 × 7 |
| Property-tax exemption (0.6%/year × 7) | €8,400 | 200,000 × 0.006 × 7 |
| One-off 7.5% bonus | €15,000 | 200,000 × 0.075 |
| TOTAL cash equivalent over 7 years | €67,500 | (33.75% of asset value) |
Equivalent annual yield over alternatives: - Net gain: €67,500 / 7 / €200,000 = 4.82% per year; - Net of likely alternative returns (e.g. AMD bank deposit ~6–9% per year, but with AMD inflation ~5–7% real yield ~1–3%): ~3.5–4.4% real uplift.
Qualitative benefits for the owner: - the asset stays under full ownership throughout the period; - no hassle with tenants and maintenance; - “Co-investor of Armenia” status; - pre-emptive right to subscribe to a CFA on a new object.
3.4 The Platform (JV “Noah’s Ark”)
Platform revenue over 7 years (€ thousand):
| Source | Y1 | Y2 | Y3 | Y4 | Y5 | Y6 | Y7 | TOTAL |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| Issuance fees | 1,800 | 0 | 0 | 0 | 0 | 0 | 0 | 1,800 |
| Custody fees (0.3% NAV) | 308 | 324 | 345 | 372 | 396 | 420 | 435 | 2,600 |
| Trading fees (Junior secondary) | 60 | 120 | 180 | 240 | 300 | 360 | 420 | 1,680 |
| Advisory fees | 100 | 80 | 60 | 50 | 40 | 30 | 30 | 390 |
| FX & other | 50 | 80 | 100 | 120 | 140 | 160 | 180 | 830 |
| TOTAL revenue | 2,318 | 604 | 685 | 782 | 876 | 970 | 1,065 | 7,300 |
Platform expenses over 7 years (€ thousand, simplified):
| Item | Y1 | Y2 | Y3 | Y4 | Y5 | Y6 | Y7 | TOTAL |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| Owner coupons (2.75% × €100M) | 1,750 | 1,750 | 1,750 | 1,750 | 1,750 | 1,750 | 1,750 | 12,250 |
| Owner bonus (Y7 only) | — | — | — | — | — | — | 7,500 | 7,500 |
| Insurance premiums | 1,200 | 1,200 | 1,200 | 1,200 | 1,200 | 1,200 | 1,200 | 8,400 |
| Owner property-tax compensation | 600 | 600 | 600 | 600 | 600 | 600 | 600 | 4,200 |
| Opex (personnel, IT, audit) | 800 | 1,000 | 1,100 | 1,200 | 1,300 | 1,400 | 1,500 | 8,300 |
| Corporate tax 18% (on net profit) | 0 | 0 | 0 | 0 | 0 | 0 | 0 | 0 (loss in pilot) |
| TOTAL expenses | 4,350 | 4,550 | 4,650 | 4,750 | 4,850 | 4,950 | 12,550 | 40,650 |
Net CF of the Platform: −€33.35M over 7 years on the pilot cycle (negative due to one-off owner bonuses and insurance premiums).
However, in Phase 2 at €1B+ annual turnover and with the Fund Law tax incentives (L5): - owner coupons are not paid by the platform — paid by the CBA from issuance proceeds; - bonuses are covered by pool NAV growth; - issuance fees scaled 10×; - The Platform reaches sustainable profit with 30–40% IRR on capital.
Base IRR on Platform (JV) capital: in the pilot ~5–10%; at full deployment — 30–40%.
3.5 The State of Armenia
Alternative scenario — external borrowing of €100M:
| Parameter | Value |
|---|---|
| Coupon on a sovereign RA eurobond (current market) | ~6.5% per year |
| Tenor | 7 years |
| Principal | 100,000,000 |
| Cumulative coupons over 7 years | 45,500,000 |
| TOTAL to repay | 145,500,000 |
Alternative scenario — Noah’s Ark Platform:
| Parameter | Value |
|---|---|
| Raised into the Fund | 100,000,000 |
| Insurance coverage (paid by the platform) | 0 |
| Budgetary guarantee — activated? | Unlikely (probability <2.5%) |
| MoF guarantee fee (budget revenue) | +1,225,000 |
| Assets transferred to RA ownership (completed objects) | 92,000,000 |
NPV savings for the RA budget @ 6% discount = +€38,200,000 (vs the external-borrowing alternative).
Additionally — invisible savings: - acceleration of national projects by 5–7 years; - mobilisation of diaspora capital (previously untapped); - creation of an institutional base for replication (Phase 2); - reputational effect of MiCA-compatibility and financial sovereignty.
4. SENSITIVITY TO 5 DRIVERS
4.1 Driver 1: Asset Price Drift (pool value change)
| Scenario | NAV (Y7) | Junior IRR | Senior IRR | Budgetary guarantee activation |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| -30% | €100M | -2.5% | 5.5% | Unlikely |
| -15% | €120M | 2.0% | 5.5% | No |
| 0 (base) | €145M | 5.45–7.0% | 5.5% | No |
| +15% | €170M | 7.5–10% | 5.5% | No |
| +30% | €195M | 10–13.5% | 5.5% | No |
4.2 Driver 2: Default / Project Completion Rate
| Scenario (% projects delivered) | CF from projects | CCI activation | Senior IRR | Junior IRR |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| 60% | €15M | Yes (€10M) | 5.5% (insurance + budget) | 4.0% |
| 75% | €18M | Partially | 5.5% | 5.5% |
| 85% (base) | €23M | No | 5.5% | 5.45% |
| 95% | €27M | No | 5.5% | 7.5% |
4.3 Driver 3: AMD/EUR Currency Volatility
| AMD vs EUR move | Impact |
|---|---|
| -15% (AMD weakens) | AMD-denominated owner coupons → lower in EUR; platform load grows by ~€1.8M over 7 years |
| -5% (mild weakening) | Marginal impact; ~€600k of additional expenses |
| Base | — |
| +5% (AMD strengthens) | Positive for the platform ~€600k of savings |
| +15% | ~€1.8M of savings |
4.4 Driver 4: Interest Rate Environment
| CBA base rate | Senior coupon | Investor demand | Junior IRR |
|---|---|---|---|
| 7.5% (already higher) | needs to rise to 7% | demand drop | -2% to base |
| 6.0% (base) | 5.5% | standard | base |
| 4.5% (lower) | 5.0% | excess demand | +2% to base |
4.5 Driver 5: Project Cash Flow Generation
| Concession yield from objects | Cash to Fund | Effect |
|---|---|---|
| 3% (low) | €13.8M | Junior IRR falls to 3% |
| 5% (medium) | €23M | Junior IRR ~7% (base, source) |
| 7% (good) | €32.2M | Junior IRR 10%+ |
| 9% (opt.) | €41.4M | Junior IRR 13%+ |
Note (Restatement 2026-05-11, per the independent macro audit by Petrosyan): real net yields of commercial real estate in Yerevan (after opex) are in the 3.5–4.0% net range, not 5%. Using 5% as a “medium scenario” inflates Junior IRR. The defensible base scenario is 3.5–4.0%, corresponding to a Junior IRR ~5–6% under stable conditions. Full driver revaluation and a re-run of the entire model — see §8 “Restatement 2026-05-11”.
5. PEER COMPARISON
| Peer | Tenor | Yield | Collateral | Jurisdiction | Volume | Target audience | Advantages vs Noah’s Ark | Disadvantages vs Noah’s Ark |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| Israel Bonds | 1–10 years | 4–6% | Sovereign Israel | Israel | $50B+ over 75 years | Jewish diaspora | Long track record, trust | No real collateral; no digital infra; no cash distribution to owners |
| EIB Project Bonds | 5–25 years | 3–5% | EIB rating + project CF | EU | €5B+ per year | Institutionals | AAA rating; scale | High entry threshold; not for diaspora; not crypto tokens |
| World Bank IBRD social bonds | 5–10 years | 3–4% | World Bank guarantee | Global | $1B+ per year | Institutionals + retail | AAA rating; ESG focus | Not for a specific country; no tokenization |
| Diaspora Bonds India / Ethiopia | 5–7 years | 5–7% | Sovereign | India / Ethiopia | $11B / $50M | Diaspora | Precedent of working diaspora bonds | No real-asset collateral; not digital |
| IFC Local Currency Bonds | 3–10 years | variable | IFC rating | Emerging markets | $2B+ per year | Institutionals | Deep IFC experience | Not for a specific country; not for diaspora |
| MakerDAO RWA tokens (RWA-006) | open-ended | 3–6% | US Treasury bills | Global | $5B+ TVL | Crypto investors | Full decentralization | No sovereign guarantee; no infra projects |
| Provenance Blockchain Real Estate Tokens | variable | variable | US real estate | USA | $500M+ | Crypto + retail | Mature tokenization | No country social mission; no diaspora |
Noah’s Ark is unique in the combination of: - Real-estate collateral + insurance + budgetary guarantee (defense-in-depth) - DLT infrastructure with a CBA regulator node - A targeted diaspora channel through emotional + financial motive - Win-Win-Win for all 3 sides without losses - Regulatory support (HO-159-N built on the MiCA template) - Scalability to €1B+ in Phase 2 - Replicability of the model in other jurisdictions

6.2 Key metrics
| Metric | Source (management model) | Defensible base (post Restatement 2026-05-11) |
|---|---|---|
| Break-even year | Y5 | Y5–Y6 |
| Equity IRR (10 years) | 33–40% | 18–25% |
| NPV @ 15% discount | +€42M | +€12–18M |
| Cumulative AUM Y10 | €5 billion | €800M–€1.5B (Petrosyan: no RWA platform in EM has reached €5B; defensible target materially lower) |
| EBITDA margin Y10 | 91% (€52M / €57M revenue) | 25–40% (per BitGo / BNY Mellon / institutional custody benchmarks); revised EBITDA Y10 €22–26M |
Detailed justification of the corrections — see §8 “Restatement 2026-05-11”. The original model is retained as a “management aspirational scenario” (Bull case PWERM); the defensible base is used in all external communications.
7. EXIT STRATEGY
7.1 Possible exit scenarios (horizon 7–10 years)
Scenario A: IPO on the Yerevan Stock Exchange + cross-listing (Istanbul, London, Dubai) - 25% placement of charter capital - JV target valuation: €500–800 million - Raising funds to scale Phase 2 and 3
Scenario B: Strategic acquisition by a major fintech or bank - Potential buyers: Ardshinbank, Ameriabank, EBRD, World Bank IFC, Wise, Plaid, Coinbase, Ripple Labs - Target valuation: €600M – €1 billion - Ensures project continuation and integration into a larger infrastructure
Scenario C: Buyback by private investors (incl. Armenian diaspora) - Gradual buyback of shares from the partner bank and other minorities - Retention of independence and control by Kagirov A-Kh. A.
Scenario D: Spin-off of IP into a separate holding - Transfer of IP to an international holding (Cyprus / Switzerland / UAE) - Licensing of IP to regional operators in Georgia, Kazakhstan, the EU - Royalty income ($50–100M per year with 10+ regional operators)
7.2 Recommended sequence
- Years 5–6: Strategy selection depending on market conditions and Phase 2 progress;
- Year 7: Execution of the exit strategy (IPO or strategic sale);
- Year 8+: Reinvestment of part of the proceeds into new pilot cycles and regional rollout.
7.3 Exit valuations — McKinsey-revised (per Restatement 2026-05-11)
| Scenario | Source (E1 §7.1) | Defensible base (McKinsey, Audit_6) |
|---|---|---|
| IPO Yerevan SE + cross-listing | €500–800M | €300–500M (given current Yerevan SE liquidity ≈$2M ADV and the real cross-listing-venue readiness) |
| Strategic acquisition | €600M – €1B | $200–500M (the real buyer pool for Armenian RWA fintech is limited; readiness of Coinbase/Ripple/Wise/Stripe to acquire something Armenian-rooted requires confirmation) |
| Spin-off IP royalties $50–100M/year | with 10+ regional operators | retained as a Phase 3+ target; before that — licence income $5–15M/year with 2–3 regional operators |
Source of revaluation: Audit_6 (David Brennan, McKinsey Senior Partner). The aspirational source numbers are retained as a Bull case PWERM; the defensible base is used in external communications.
8. RESTATEMENT 2026-05-11 (PER INDEPENDENT MULTI-DISCIPLINARY AUDIT)
8.1 Source of corrections
The financial model has been independently re-reviewed by two independent experts: - Margaret Holloway, CFA/CBV/ASA — Big4 valuation partner (Hollister Capital Advisory LLP). Audit_3. - Dr. Aram Petrosyan, PhD Economics (Harvard), ex-IMF Mission Chief Armenia. Audit_2.
Additionally — strategic context: - David Brennan, MBA Wharton, Senior Partner McKinsey & Company. Audit_6.
8.2 Six structural Hollister corrections (Audit_3)
| # | Parameter | Source | Hollister-revised | Justification |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| 1 | Royalty base for RfRM | 2% × AUM | 2% × Revenue | Industry royalty is calculated on licence revenue, not AUM. Effect: IP portfolio drops from €12.5M to €5.0M Base. |
| 2 | PWERM probabilities | Bear 35 / Base 40 / Bull 18 / Home Run 7 | Bear 45 / Base 38 / Bull 13 / Home Run 4 | A 7% Home Run is not empirically supported: of 8 diaspora bonds since 1951, only Israel reached Home Run over 75 years. |
| 3 | Reconciliation weights | Income 50 / Market 25 / Cost 15 / IP 10 | Income 30 / Market 25 / Cost 25 / IP 20 | AICPA SSVS No. 1 for pre-MVP / pre-revenue: Cost approach should weigh 40–60%. Income cannot dominate without confirmed revenue. |
| 4 | EBITDA margin Y10 | 91% (€52M / €57M revenue) | 25–40% | Custody/issuance/trading benchmarks (BitGo, BNY Mellon, Anchorage): 25–40%. Y10 EBITDA compressed from €52M to €22–26M. |
| 5 | Industry β (relevered) | 1.55 (D/E 30/70) | 1.36 (D/E at operator level) | The project debt sits at the “Noah’s Ark” Fund level, not at the CASP operator. Operator relevered β at D/E ~0/100 ≈ unlevered β. |
| 6 | Real Options value | €5.69M (Black-Scholes call) | €1.5–2.5M (post de-double-counting) | Phase 2 growth is partly captured in the Gordon Growth TV of the main DCF; net marginal optionality is materially lower. |
8.3 Three macro Petrosyan corrections (Audit_2)
| # | Parameter | Source | Petrosyan-revised | Justification |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| 1 | Net yield of commercial real estate in Yerevan | 5% (base) | 3.5–4.0% net | Real net yields after opex for stabilised assets in Yerevan; construction dry years further reduce effective yield. |
| 2 | AUM target Y10 | €5 billion | €800M–€1.5B | No EM RWA platform (Centrifuge, Maple, Goldfinch) has reached €5B. €5B is 17–20% of Armenia’s current GDP — an unrealistic share of the national real-estate market. |
| 3 | Diaspora funnel Y1–Y3 | €25–40M+/year | €8–18M/year | Applying first-decade adoption rates of Israel Bonds to the Armenian diaspora (7–8M vs 7.5M Jews in the US); the RU bloc (2.5M people) gives a max of $5–15M due to sanctions risk. |
8.4 End defensible value range (post Restatement)
| Value layer | ECHELON Base (source) | Hollister-revised Base | Δ |
|---|---|---|---|
| IP portfolio | €12.5M | €5.0M | −60% |
| Pre-money Enterprise Value of the JV | €18.0M | €13.0M | −28% |
| 60% Kagirov share (via Center Group Company) | €7.78M | €5.27M | −32% |
| Maximum Defensible (P85) | €34.0M | €26.5M | −22% |
Under a combined stress test (CBA base rate 11% + AMD −20% + inflation 6% + recession), Pre-money EV compresses to €5–7M.
8.5 Stress-test scenarios (for Big4 / IMF / EBRD due diligence)
| Scenario | Trigger | Junior IRR | Senior IRR | Budgetary guarantee activation |

8.6 Recommended next steps
- Big4 financial review of the E1 model in Yerevan (KPMG / EY / Deloitte Armenia): ~€20–25k, 4–6 weeks. Aim — move the forecast from management estimate to third-party validated forecast.
- Re-statement of the ECHELON valuation report applying 6 Hollister corrections + 3 Petrosyan macro corrections. Keep both versions (ECHELON aspirational + defensible base) for different audiences.
- Capital IQ / Pitchbook Pro access for updating comparables and multiples to Q1-2026.
- Letter of Comfort from MoF RA + MoU with one of the Armenian banks (Ameriabank / Ardshinbank / Evocabank) — each document increases probability-weighted EV by 30–40% (see Audit_6 §11).
