Financial Model
Valuation
Analysis
Most people who need a financial model have never been taught how to build one properly.
This course fixes that.
Startup Financial Modeling and Valuation is a 30-lesson practical course that teaches you to build a complete financial model and value a startup using the same methods applied in investment banking and private equity. The course is built on a real bakery business case -- a relatable, grounded example that makes every concept clear and every formula logical.
Part One covers the full financial model: Revenue, Cost of Sales, Operating Expenses, Capital Expenditure, Debt Schedule, Working Capital, Funding Requirement, Income Statement, Balance Sheet, and Cash Flow Statement. Every line. Every formula. Built by you, from a blank sheet.
Part Two covers Valuation: Ratio Analysis, Free Cash Flow to the Firm, Cost of Equity, WACC, NPV, Terminal Value, and Enterprise Value. The same methodology used by professional investors and analysts -- applied directly to the model you built in Part One.
By the end, you will have built something real. A model you can use. A model you can defend. And a skillset that pays for itself the first time you apply it.
