FAQ
What does financial modelling involve?
Financial modelling involves creating dynamic models that reflect a company’s financial situation and support business decision-making. The models enable forecasting of results based on historical data and future assumptions, analysis of profitability and liquidity, and simulation of various business scenarios.
What is a financial model?
A financial model is a tool (usually a spreadsheet) that presents a company’s projected financial situation. It includes, among other things, revenue, costs, profit, the balance sheet and cash flows. This enables the analysis of the profitability of operations and supports strategic and investment decisions.
Is a financial model the same as a budget?
No – a budget is a static financial plan, usually based on a single scenario. A financial model is a dynamic tool that allows you to analyse multiple scenarios (e.g. optimistic, base-case, pessimistic) and examine the impact of various variables on the company’s financial situation.
Can a financial model be used for company valuation?
Yes – a financial model is often used as the basis for company valuation, particularly in the DCF (discounted cash flow) method, where financial forecasts and cash flows are key.
How long does it take to prepare a financial model?
It usually takes between 1 and 3 weeks to prepare a financial model, depending on the model’s complexity, the scope of the data and its intended use (e.g. investment, financial controlling or contribution in kind).
Can I update the financial model myself?
Yes – our financial models are prepared in an editable format, allowing you to update the input data, assumptions and parameters yourself. This means the model can be adapted on an ongoing basis to reflect changes in the company’s situation.
Do you provide training on how to use the financial model?
Yes – as part of the service, we offer training on how to use the model, guidance and support in interpreting the results. This allows the client to use the tool freely in day-to-day work or in discussions with investors.
