Financial Projections

Assumption-based estimates of the future, built on the actual historical position — the two are kept clearly distinct in every projection we prepare.

What this covers

Scope of the engagement.

What the work involves, and the business situations that typically bring it about.

What it involves

  • Revenue, cost and profit projections
  • Cash-flow projections
  • Working-capital requirement estimates
  • Scenario analysis
  • Assumption-based forecasting, with assumptions stated explicitly
  • Break-even and sensitivity analysis
  • Multi-year financial models
  • Best-case, base-case and downside scenarios

Business situations

  • Business planning and internal management planning
  • Expansion into a new product, location or market
  • Funding or investment discussions
  • Evaluating a decision before committing resources to it
  • Stress-testing a plan against uncertain conditions
  • Setting internal targets for the year or project ahead

Value

What this is intended to deliver.

Clear, assumption-based projections let a business — and the parties it is speaking with — reason about the future on stated terms rather than guesswork.
