Financial Modeling

Overview F.M

Financial Modeling Overview

Financial modeling is an invaluable tool for forecasting future financial performance, measuring a business's value, evaluating M&A activity, assessing the impact of possible business scenarios and understanding performance sensitivity to volatile future environmental factors.

A financial model is simply a tool that’s built usually in Excel to forecast financial performance of a business into the future. The forecast is typically based on the company’s historical performance, assumptions about the future, and requires preparing an income statement, balance sheet, cash flow statement and supporting schedules (known as a 3 statement model). From there, more advanced types of models can be built such as discounted cash flow analysis (DCF model), leveraged-buyout (LBO), mergers and acquisitions (M&A), and sensitivity analysis.

Financial Modeling Uses

The output of a financial model is used for decision making and performing financial analysis, whether inside or outside of the company.

 

Inside a company, executives will use financial models to make decisions about:

1 -  Raising capital (debt and/or equity)

2 - Making acquisitions (businesses and/or assets)

3 - Growing the business organically (i.e. opening new stores, entering new markets, etc.)

4 - Selling or divesting assets and business units

5 - Budgeting and forecasting (planning for the years ahead)

6 - Capital allocation (priority of which projects to invest in)

7 - Valuing a business
