1. What makes a business investor-ready?

  • A defined 5-year plan supported by financial projections that align business goals, capital requirements and operational capacity.

  • Established systems for setting budgets, tracking performance and reporting results. These processes ensure all decisions are data-driven and aligned with the business’s strategic objectives. Aka. we know how to set a plan and track against it.

  • A consistent record of delivering against the plan, demonstrating reliability in execution and the ability to achieve objectives. In simple terms, we do what we say we will, and we do it repeatedly.

2. Kandui Services

  • A 3-statement financial model combining historical results and forecasted performance. Kandui models are built to the exact specification of each business, reflecting how they actually operate. All model outputs are explainable and linked directly to a real business driver - there are no dead ends. The result is a model offering clear decision-making and conviction in the strategic direction of the business.

  • We document how the business’s processes feed into the financial model and define the key inputs that drive forecasted performance. Budgets are generated using the model, combining historical results with forecasted outcomes to produce accurate budgets and long-term projections aligned with the strategic plan.

  • Actual results are mapped back to the financial model using financial statements, management reports and key operational data. This process transforms actuals into the model format. The result: a blended view of actual, budgeted and forecasted performance offering stakeholders a bulletproof understanding of how the business is tracking.
