Four Week Solution

Week 1

Foundations

We begin by understanding the economic context and drivers that will shape the business's future performance. This involves analysing market dynamics, competitive positioning, regulatory environment and key value drivers such as pricing power, customer concentration and operational leverage. We then examine the historical income statement, normalising for non-recurring items and adjusting to reflect sustainable, maintainable earnings. By week's end, you'll have a clear picture of what drives value in the business and a clean baseline of historical financial performance.

Projections

Week 2

With the income statement baseline established, we build detailed revenue and cost forecasts based on the economic drivers identified in week one. These projections account for market growth rates, pricing trends and operational assumptions. We develop the forecasting model that translates strategic assumptions into projected income statements for the forecast period, ensuring all line items are properly linked to underlying drivers.

Statements

Week 3

We expand the model to include complete cash flow projections, calculating operating cash flow, capital expenditures and working capital movements. We then build out the projected balance sheet, ensuring assets, liabilities and equity are properly forecast and that the three financial statements are fully integrated. By week's end, you'll have a complete three-statement financial model with all linkages working correctly.

Testing

Week 4

The final week focuses on stress-testing the model through scenario and sensitivity analysis. We model different scenarios to understand the range of potential outcomes based on varying assumptions. We test sensitivity to key variables—revenue growth rates, margins, working capital requirements and capital expenditure—to identify which assumptions have the greatest impact on financial performance. The deliverable is a robust financial model with clearly documented assumptions and scenario outputs.
