Course Overview

Embark on a transformative journey into the realm of commercial lending with our comprehensive three-part series. Immerse yourself in a dynamic learning experience where we unravel the intricacies of evaluating financial performance, projecting repayment capability, and enhancing shareholder value. Delve into the second part of our series, which focuses on Financial Projections.

Major topics covered in this CPE Finance course:

  • Basics of projections
  • Viability of underlying assumptions
  • Linkage of the income statement to the balance sheet to the cash flow
  • Projecting income statement and balance sheet
  • Projecting cash inflows and outflows
  • Sufficiency of cash flows to repay debt, reward owners, and sustain enterprise

Commercial borrowers in the banking sector demand a thorough evaluation, requiring lenders to assess both short-term and long-term potentials. The cornerstone lies in understanding the elements that contribute to positive cash flow—solid financial performance, sustainable operating practices, and a stable financial condition. By projecting a borrower's financial performance, we dissect underlying assumptions and forecast income statements, balance sheets, and cash flow statements. This detailed analysis quantifies future cash flow, essential for debt repayment, dividends, and strategic investments.

Beyond traditional lending practices, our series emphasizes building shareholder value to ensure long-term engagement and commitment from owners. Discover the discounted value of future cash flows and the key drivers influencing them. Explore the role of effective working capital management and strategic capital expenditures in accelerating shareholder value.

A successful banking relationship extends beyond the yearly or seasonal, considering the borrower's financial performance for the long haul. Our series guides participants in evaluating if borrowers possess the financial strength for sustained growth and the ability to increase shareholder value. Join this transformative 3-part series by Dev Strischek that equips participants with the skills to navigate complex financial landscapes and make informed lending decisions.
