Cash Flow Planning

Connect the income statement, balance sheet and operational assumptions to a forward-looking view of cash. See liquidity risks before they become problems.

TYPICAL MANAGEMENT QUESTION

Where is cash heading, and what could change the outcome?

Plan cash, not just profit. Get an integrated view of cash before decisions reach the bank account:

  • Forecast liquidity: See the expected cash position month by month
  • Model working capital: Plan receivables, payables and payment behaviour
  • Plan investments and financing: Include CAPEX, loans and repayments
  • Find gaps early: Spot periods where cash falls below what the business needs

BEYOND THE INCOME STATEMENT

Where profit turns into cash

A profitable plan can still run short of cash. Because the cash forecast is connected to the income statement and balance sheet, changes in revenue, payment terms, hiring or CAPEX show up in liquidity straight away, not when they reach the bank.

Finance can test working-capital scenarios and see the effect on cash before anything is done.

From early warning to action

AI does the groundwork: It detects emerging cash risks and explains which operational drivers are behind them.

Finance makes the call: It tests actions that protect liquidity and decides which ones go into the plan.
