Financial/Business Planning

When is it needed?

  • If the company is facing an uncertain or turbulent period.
  • If management wants to clearly see how to plan its resources – be it workforce, raw materials, or investments.
  • If a new project, development, or investment is launched.
  • If company sale or investor involvement is on the agenda.
  • If a new business is starting, and the first steps need to be taken on a solid foundation.

What results can you expect from good business planning?

  • Realistic financial forecasts for several years, broken down monthly.
  • Income statement, balance sheet plan, and cash flow plan – all within a unified system.
  • Scenario-based modeling to see what happens in different market situations.
  • Achievable goals and control points along which progress can be measured.

Workflow

Model Creation

In the first step, we map out the company’s operations: we conduct interviews, data collection, and consultations, then based on these, we develop the logical structure of the financial model. This will be the basis for planning.

Income Statement and Cost Calculation

We prepare the manufacturing or service income statement, which includes cost calculation for the entire portfolio. We account for the effects of prototypes, investments, depreciation, pricing, and sales channels, and determine the break-even point.

Cash Flow Planning

We plan the funding requirements and financing, the production and inventory processes, as well as the supplier-customer payment schedule, so you can see how much liquid assets are available and when.

Balance Sheet Preparation

We prepare the balance sheet considering investments, depreciation, inventories, accounts receivable and payable, and funding sources – this shows the company’s financial stability during the planned period.

Investor Study (optional)

If capital raising or company sale is the goal, we prepare the investor material, which presents the company’s financial performance, potential, and expected return.
