What Can You Expect from PKF’s Financial Modeling Service? PKF’s Financial Modeling Service involves creating and analyzing detailed financial models for businesses. We provide the expertise, tools, and resources needed to develop models that can support financial management, strategic planning, and business decision-making.
Our collaboration in financial process modeling includes several key stages.
Step 1 Analyzing Requirements and Financial Modeling Goals We begin by thoroughly understanding the client’s goals and needs . These could include forecasting future financial performance, assessing the profitability of new projects, preparing for mergers and acquisitions (business plans), or optimizing working capital.
Simultaneously, we gain a deep understanding of the client’s business operations.
Together, we define the scope of the service , which may cover specific financial areas such as revenue forecasting, cost management, cash flow analysis, or business valuation.
Step 2 Collecting Data for Analysis We gather essential data by discussing key assumptions regarding the modeled scenario with the client. We also analyze the company’s historical data , such as financial statements, balance sheets, income statements, and cash flow reports. Additionally, we incorporate market and industry data to better understand the company’s market position and the business environment.
Step 3 Developing the Financial Model We design the structure of the financial model , which may include balance sheets, income statements, and cash flow reports. For this structure, we define key model assumptions, such as revenue growth rates, operating costs, interest rates, inflation, and other economic factors. We also create various “what-if” scenarios to examine how different variables could impact financial outcomes. Sensitivity analyses are also prepared to evaluate the impact of changes in key assumptions.
Step 4 Validating and Testing the Financial Model We review and test the developed financial model to ensure accuracy and consistency. During this phase, we compare projections with historical results and make adjustments where necessary to ensure the model aligns with the company’s financial realities.
Step 5 Presenting Results and Providing Recommendations We prepare a report that includes the results of the model analysis, key findings, and recommendations on financial and operational strategies. The results are presented in a way that facilitates better understanding and interpretation. Recommendations may include suggestions for cost optimization, working capital management, investment strategies, or risk management.
Step 6 Supporting Implementation of Recommendations At the client’s request, we offer advisory support during the implementation of recommendations derived from the financial model. If necessary, we also provide training for company employees to ensure they have the skills to utilize and update the model effectively.
