Key Insights

We built a comprehensive operating model with inputs specified on a quarterly basis, capturing all of the individual business lines of the company, including individual and corporate level pricing models, and different training methods

The model includes a detailed wages and salaries section, with inputs having the ability to specify staff on an individual level, or on a grouped “phase” level for flexibility

The model includes comprehensive outputs including full financial statements on a quarterly and annual basis, key shareholder metrics, financial ratios, cash burn breakdowns, gross margins breakdowns, headcount, and more
