Financial Modeling & FP&A | DCF, Forecasts, Board Packs | Ex-EY CA

✅ Top Rated | 100% Job Success | 24 jobs | 500 hours billed ✅ EY-trained Chartered Accountant (ACA), ICAP qualified ✅ Led due diligence on transactions worth $25M to $100M+ ✅ Models, board packs and books for US, UK and EU founders I build financial models, valuations and FP&A reporting, and keep the books underneath them clean, for SaaS, e-commerce, real estate and manufacturing businesses in the US, UK and Europe. Here's what I can help you with: ✔️ 3-Statement Financial Modeling: Integrated P&L, balance sheet and cash flow on drivers you control, with scenario and sensitivity switches so a change in price or churn flows through cleanly. ✔️ DCF and Business Valuation: Discounted cash flow, FCFE, comparable company and precedent transaction analysis triangulated into a defensible price band rather than one number a buyer can argue down. ✔️ Fundraising, Cap Tables and Pitch Decks: Pre-seed to Series A raise models, SAFE and convertible note dilution, investor pitch decks with financial highlights, and a data room that survives diligence. ✔️ SaaS and Subscription Metrics: ARR and MRR bridges splitting new, expansion, contraction and churn, net revenue retention, CAC payback, LTV/CAC, Rule of 40 and cohort analysis tied to a driver-based forecast. ✔️ SaaS Revenue Recognition: Deferred revenue schedules, ASC 606 and IFRS 15 treatment for subscriptions, seat and usage-based pricing, bookings to billings to revenue, and multi-entity consolidation. ✔️ E-commerce and DTC Finance: Shopify and marketplace channel margin, COGS and landed cost, inventory and returns, processor fees, and contribution margin read by SKU and by channel. ✔️ Real Estate and Fund Models: Private equity fund models, equity waterfalls, IRR and MOIC, multifamily and land acquisition, debt models and infrastructure project finance. ✔️ Startup and Venture Finance: Financial foundations for founder-led companies, venture studio and family office deal support, investment memos and investor updates a board will read. ✔️ FMCG, Manufacturing and Logistics: Margin and portfolio diagnostics across product divisions, production and working-capital analysis, factoring, credit lines and freight cost models. ✔️ FP&A, Budgeting and Reforecasting: Annual budget, rolling reforecast, driver-based planning and monthly variance analysis that explains why actuals moved, not just that they did. ✔️ KPI Dashboards and Board Packs: Monthly management packs with P&L trend, expense breakdown and the operating KPIs your business runs on, in plain English, not raw software exports. ✔️ Cash Flow, Burn and Runway: 13-week cash flow, burn and runway tracking, working capital and collections timing, so you see the squeeze coming while there is still time to act. ✔️ Financial Due Diligence and QoE: Buy-side and sell-side diligence, Quality of Earnings, data rooms and audit readiness, drawn from Big 4 deal work rather than a template. ✔️ Clean-Up, Close and Reconciliation: Backlogged books caught up in QuickBooks and Xero, Stripe and PayPal reconciled to statement, and a close checklist that pulls month-end down to days. 💬 What clients say: "Owais did an excellent job building a detailed forecasting model for our consumer startup. He was thorough, thoughtful, and very responsive throughout the process. He took the time to understand our business needs and translated them into a well-structured, flexible model that we can actually use to guide decisions. Overall, a great experience working with Owais. I’d highly recommend them to anyone looking for high-quality financial modeling support." Let's have a free consultation about your numbers. I'll tell you which model your raise actually needs, where your margin is leaking, and how many days your close should take, before you commit to anything.
