Foundations
3-Statement Financial Modeling
Build an integrated operating model from first principles.
Overview
Building a clean, fully integrated three-statement model from a blank sheet. The focus is on structure, drivers and discipline, so the model is robust, auditable and genuinely useful for decisions.
Who it's for: Analysts and associates across investment banking, investing and corporates.
What you'll cover
- Model architecture, formatting and best-practice conventions
- Driver-based revenue and expense builds
- Working capital and the cash conversion cycle
- Capex, depreciation and the fixed-asset roll-forward
- Debt schedules, interest and the cash sweep
- Linking the income statement, balance sheet and cash flow
- Balancing the model and error-proofing
What delegates can do afterwards
- Build a fully integrated three-statement model from scratch
- Structure a flexible, auditable model that follows best-practice conventions
- Forecast revenue, costs, working capital and capex from clearly defined drivers
- Diagnose and resolve a model that does not balance
