Commonly Asked Questions

• Q.Are These Financials GAAP Compliant?

  A.Full disclosure. We are not a CPA firm nor are we a law firm. We specialize in business strategy and execution and, as such, analyze and generate financial statements every day as the foundation for creating EXECUTABLE business strategies. And yes, all financial statements that we generate are GAAP compliant.

• Q.What About Confidentiality?

  A.Upon receipt of payment, you will receive a confirmation email immediately along with a signed copy of our Non Disclosure Agreement (NDA) within 24 hours (so that we may personalize the NDA with your information). You can see a sample here. You can make edits to the NDA or request that we use yours. We will begin work on your Financial Statements as soon as both parties have signed the NDA.

• Q.Why Do You Require 3 Years of Financials?

  A.For this introductory offer, we will generate a complete set of 5 year, pro-forma financial statements based upon a linear regression of the past three years of performance for your company. Anything less than 3 years of information limits our ability to use linear regression.

• Q.Can You Only Do Linear Regression?

  A.We offer services ranging from linear regression to full business modeling including strategy sessions in which we can go over the assumptions for every line item in your P&L, Cash Flow and Balance Sheet data.

• Q.What if I Don't Have 3 Years of Financials?

  A.Please schedule a consultation.

• Q.How Do You Know How I Want My Statements Structured?

  A.Your confirmation email will also include a simple worksheet for you to make any changes to our suggested structure.
