Financial Modeling

Financial models that hold up under any investor’s questions.

Building Future Strategies

A financial model is the quantitative version of your strategy — every assumption translated into a number, every number connected to a driver, every driver tied to a decision. At Bonyad, we build investor-grade financial models that pass scrutiny from VCs, banks, and CFOs alike. Three-statement models, SaaS ARR builds, e-commerce contribution-margin models, marketplace GMV models, capex-heavy project models — we build for the structure of your business, not from a generic template. Every model is auditable, scenario-ready, and built so you can update it yourself.

Q: How granular should the model be? A: Granular enough that any line item can be explained, not so granular that updates become impossible. We design for the right level for your stage.

Q: Do you build models in Excel or Google Sheets? A: Both. Google Sheets for collaboration-heavy contexts, Excel for institutional-investor contexts. We follow your preference.

Q: Can you update an existing model rather than rebuild? A: Often, yes. We audit the existing model first and recommend repair vs. rebuild based on structural quality.

Q: How long does it take to build a model? A: A standard three-statement model with scenarios takes 2–3 weeks. Complex multi-entity or marketplace models can take 4–6.

What's Included

  • Three-statement model (P&L, balance sheet, cash flow)
  • Driver-based revenue and cost build (customer-by-customer or unit-by-unit)
  • Scenario toggles (best / base / worst case)
  • Funding and dilution modeling, cap table integration

Who It's For

  • Founders raising a round — pre-seed through Series B and beyond.
  • Operators planning capex projects — manufacturing, hospitality, real estate, infrastructure.
  • Finance leaders building or rebuilding the company’s planning model.

Our Approach

  • Structure Design — We map the business logic before opening Excel. Wrong structure = wrong model.
  • Driver Build — Every revenue and cost line is tied to a real-world driver, not a flat growth rate.
  • Scenario Layer — Built-in scenario toggles so you can model fundraising rounds, market shifts, or pricing changes in one click.
  • Handover & Training — We walk your team through the model so you own it after delivery.

Why It Matters

  • Models Built on Templates Get Caught — Investors recognize template models in seconds and trust drops accordingly.
  • Bad Assumptions Hide in Pretty Models — If you can’t trace every output to a driver, you can’t defend the model.
  • You Need to Run the Business On It — A model that lives only in fundraising is a model that dies after closing.
  • Cash Is the Number That Kills Companies — Most models track revenue and forget cash flow. We don’t.

Outcomes You Can Expect

  • An auditable model you can confidently send to any investor
  • Clear visibility into the levers that actually move the business
  • Updated cash-runway and break-even outlook
  • A model your team can update without breaking it
