Two kinds of models
Forecasting Model
Transaction Model
Ben J. Sopranzetti, Ph.D.
Forecasting ModelIncludes key operating assumptions how the firm will grow its revenues and operating cash flows under various scenarios
Price increases, growth in unit volume, and cost cuts are key drivers
By changing key operating assumptions, we can test for sensitivities
Ben J. Sopranzetti, Ph.D.
Transaction Model
Starts with a forecasting model and then analyzes the impact of a transaction Sample transactions (also called "deals") include initial public offerings, debt refinancings, mergers and acquisitions.
What is the impact of different deal structures?

Keep things clean and tidyRemember, you might have to revisit the model six months from now.

The Cover Page
Summarizes models key information in one place
Ben J. Sopranzetti, Ph.D.
What are the key components?Sources and Uses Table
Summary Valuation
Summary Financial Results
Ben J. Sopranzetti, Ph.D.
Sources and Uses Table
Demonstrates from where a business plans to get financing (the "Sources") and what it plans to do with the it (the "Uses").
Ben J. Sopranzetti, Ph.D.
Summary ValuationWhat is the value of the business
And
How much of that value belongs to shareholders.
Ben J. Sopranzetti, Ph.D.
Summary Financial ResultsSummarizes the projected revenue and cash flow growth of the company
Provides a comparison with historical results.
Also provides information on the company's creditworthiness.
Ben J. Sopranzetti, Ph.D.
Operating AssumptionsGarbage in Garbage out
Your output is only as good as the quality of your assumptions
What are the critical assumptions?Sales, profit margin, growth, etc
What are the engines driving cash flows?
Ben J. Sopranzetti, Ph.D.
Operating AssumptionsHistorical results are often used as a starting point for a forecast.
Economies (dis-economies) of scale
Are historical values good predictors of the future? Use your common sense.
Ben J. Sopranzetti, Ph.D.
Working Capital PageForecast working capital items such as inventory, accounts payable, and accounts receivable.
Would you expect this to change with sales?
Ben J. Sopranzetti, Ph.D.
The Income StatementP&L (profit and loss) statement, shows all the revenue and expenses of the business.
Did the firm make any money?
The Operating Assumptions drive the Income Statement
Ben J. Sopranzetti, Ph.D.
The Balance SheetWhat do we have and how did we pay for it?
It tells us how much "stuff" we have (Assets) and how much of the "stuff" is owed to other parties (Liabilities).
The remainder belongs to the equity holders.
Driven in part by the working capital page
Ben J. Sopranzetti, Ph.D.
Statement of Cash FlowsIt starts with the accountant's record of profits from the Income Statement and reconciles to the bottom line change in Debt and Cash
Ties together the Income Statement and Balance Sheet
Ben J. Sopranzetti, Ph.D.
The Debt ScheduleThe business generates a certain amount of cash.
How much of the cash should be used to repay debt?
How much should be put in the bank?
Ben J. Sopranzetti, Ph.D.
Valuation AnalysisDrives the Summary Valuation results on the Cover Page
The Valuation Analysis calculates the cash flow and determines a business value based on these cash flow forecasts. Usually this is a indirect DCF (unlevered free cash flow) analysis
Ben J. Sopranzetti, Ph.D.
Operating LookupThis section of a financial model allows a user the flexibility to plan for and run various scenarios by simply changing a value in one cell.
This value is called a "trigger
Vary the revenue growth and profitability (COGS) and CAPEX forecasts
Ben J. Sopranzetti, Ph.D.
Capital Structure LookupJust like the Operating Lookup allows the user to vary the revenue and profit forecasts
The Capital Structure Lookup creates the capability to analyze the impact of various financing alternatives
