How Powdr can help you and your clients

Whatever the transaction type, or ongoing monitoring need, Powdr is here to give you better insight

Financial models are the cornerstone of all lending and investment decisions, but they vary in quality, structure and detail. Powdr fixes this.

Our models – by linking operational drivers to financial output - help you see the full picture and make better, more informed decisions. This can help you manage risk across your portfolio in a more targeted way.

A Powdr model is easy to update month to month, and it can change in a simple click of a button, meaning as a business adapts, the model does too, without the worry of broken links! This means the reporting you get month to month, is also truly reflective of the business at any point in time.

It's why we are trusted partners with so many banks and funds.

Powdr’s low pricing and flexible design removes the barriers preventing quality models both pre- and post-deal.

Our output makes it easy for you – as the investor – to understand the financial drivers of the business, and how that coverts to cash flow, giving you confidence in each opportunity you review. You can also run scenario analysis, stress test and use our review features to diligence management’s assumptions. All of this gives you better information – and the right data points – to value each business.

For your portfolio companies, Powdr not only automates and simplifies large parts of the modelling process (saving stretched FDs time), but gives them powerful insights into how their business can grow.

A Powdr model helps link strategy to financial information, helping you understand the overall impact of management’s actions on their cashflow.

Our tool can help assess the suitability of different debt structures and help distinguish between temporary (working capital) and longer term funding requirements – arming you with information you need to make a well informed lending decision. Our models cater for complex debt solutions – from term loans to full ABL facilities.

Once in your portfolio, ongoing monitoring is easily supported with the same model. In a simple click, forecasts can be update for actuals. If the business has changed it plans these also can easily be remodelled with ease.

We also track covenants to help you identify potential breaches ahead of time. This means you have all the tools available to you to manage your portfolio pro-actively and help your clients.

Powdr’s flexibility is perfect for the audit process. We’ve helped several businesses demonstrate going concern status during an audit, by easily creating different scenarios and incorporating reverse stress testing assumptions.

Our tool improves financial governance, helping reduce audit risk, while also providing your client with greater insights into their business.

Did you know....

Between 40 and 50% of bank funding applications from small businesses get rejected each year.

A huge portion of these small business' can't tell you the difference between a short term cash flow and a long term strategic forecast. They don't know what they are missing from their toolkit until they are already rejected.

How does Powdr solve the problem?

We know first hand that the key to successful financial transactions is entwined with arming management with an understanding of how their decisions and choices impact the bottom line.

By leveraging technology and the power of AI, business' of all sizes can create a credible forecast for the fraction of the cost of the alternative consultant.

What's more, with years of experience in financial modelling, we are also on hand to offer as little or as much consultancy as you might need depending on your situation.

What makes us the experts?

Years of experience across banking, restructuring, consultancy & building models to support such transactions make us well equipped to support you on your journey.

Our CEO and co founder Joe has recognised this problem since he first started working at a bank yet was always powerless to do anything but refer small companies to expensive consultancies. After years of honing his unique modelling technique specifically to support financial transactions he worked alongside a highly skilled team to develop Powdr.
