Description
To fully understand a business you need to understand their financial statements. Perfect for investors and those who wish to fully understand a companies performance...including the one they may work for!
You will quickly learn step x step through screen sharing of real financial statements how to read each financial statement and evaluate how well that business is performing and are there any red flags or concerns.
There are 3 big financial statements that everyone should understand.
1. The Balance Sheet (Company Report Card)
A balance sheet is a financial statement that reports a company's assets, liabilities, and shareholder equity.
It provides a snapshot of a company's finances (what it owns and owes).
The balance sheet adheres to an equation that equates assets with the sum of liabilities and shareholder equity.
Fundamental analysts use balance sheets to calculate financial ratios.
2. The Income Statement (Did We Make Money?)
Reports a company's financial performance over a specific accounting period.
Net Income = (Total Revenue + Gains) – (Total Expenses + Losses)
An income statement provides valuable insights into a company’s operations, the efficiency of its management, under-performing sectors and its performance relative to industry peers.
3. Cash Flow Statement (What Does Our Cash Position Look Like)
A cash flow statement is a financial statement that summarizes the amount of cash and cash equivalents entering and leaving a company.
The Cash Flow Statement measures how well a company manages its cash position, meaning how well the company generates cash.
The main components of the CFS are cash from three areas: operating activities, investing activities, and financing activities.
I will share my screen and show you step x step, line x line, as we evaluate a company together.
