FINANCIAL MODELING / SCOPE EXPLOREREXPLORE THE WORK
What drives the forecast?
A three-statement model links revenue drivers, operating costs, working capital and financing. It shows how a business decision can affect both reported performance and cash.
Revenue driversCustomers, pricing and sales assumptions
Operating planHiring, overheads and investment
Financial outputsProfit and loss, balance sheet, cash flow
The forecast horizon, level of detail and update requirements are agreed before work begins.
When might extra cash be needed?
Cash-flow forecasting helps identify the timing of a potential shortfall. We can compare an expansion plan, a delayed customer receipt or a different spending schedule before you commit.
Opening cashUSD 300,000
Base-case closing cashUSD 195,000 after six months
Downside closing cashUSD 60,000 after six months
These figures match the scenario example above. They are illustrative, not a client forecast.
How does a new investment affect ownership?
A fundraising model can show the effect of a proposed investment on the ownership structure, alongside its impact on available cash and the business plan.
Pre-money equity valueUSD 8 million
New equity investmentUSD 2 million
New investor ownership20% of USD 10 million post-money
Simplified example: existing holders retain 80%. Assumes no options, convertibles, fees or other changes to the capital structure.
- DEFINE
Start with the question.
Agree the decision, forecast horizon, intended audience and outputs. Establish whether the model supports a budget, growth plan or fundraise.
- CONNECT
Build the assumptions.
Gather historical records and business drivers. Link the forecast statements and document the inputs that matter.
- TEST
Compare what could change.
Examine scenarios and sensitivities, including the effect on cash, funding needs and ownership where relevant.
- EXPLAIN
Make the model usable.
Walk through the outputs, assumptions and how to update inputs. Agree any future model updates separately.
You approve the business assumptions. Veritas builds the agreed model and explains the outputs; forecasts do not promise performance or investor acceptance.
Before we begin
A few useful
answers.
What is financial modeling?
Financial modeling connects assumptions about a business to projected financial results. A model can link profit and loss, balance sheet and cash flow to help compare plans, scenarios and funding requirements.
Can you build a model for a business with little trading history?
Yes. We can build an assumptions-led model for an early-stage business using its proposed pricing, customer growth, costs and funding plan. Limited historical data makes the assumptions and their uncertainty especially important.
Does the service include fundraising and dilution models?
Yes. The agreed scope can include investor and fundraising models, funding-needs analysis, cash runway and ownership dilution calculations. The model supports financial evaluation; it does not guarantee investment.
Can you compare base, upside and downside scenarios?
Yes. We can build scenario and sensitivity analysis around agreed drivers such as sales, pricing, costs, hiring or collection timing. Each scenario shows the consequences of its assumptions.
Is financial modeling the same as ongoing Virtual CFO support?
No. Financial modeling is a defined model-building engagement. Virtual CFO support can add ongoing reporting, forecast updates and financial discussions. Explore our Virtual CFO service if you need recurring support.
Do you work with businesses across the Middle East?
Yes. Veritas provides remote financial modeling support for businesses across the Middle East, and welcomes international enquiries. We confirm the business context, reporting needs and service suitability before work begins.
