FREE FINANCIALS CALCULATOR 

Purpose: What is this tool for?

Navigating the financial aspects of your business can be complex, especially when preparing for crucial conversations with investors, partners, or lenders. This Financial Metrics Calculator is designed to simplify that process. By inputting your company's core financial data, you can automatically generate a report detailing key performance indicators (KPIs) and valuation metrics. It takes your raw numbers and translates them into the standard ratios and figures used to assess business health and potential.

Scope: What does it calculate?

This tool provides a quantitative snapshot based on the data you provide. It covers essential financial categories, including:

• Profitability: Understand your margins (Gross, Operating, Net) and operating earnings (EBITDA).

• Financial Returns: See how effectively your assets and equity are generating profit (ROA, ROE).

• Operational Efficiency: Gauge how well you manage inventory and receivables (Turnover Ratios).

• Liquidity: Assess your short-term ability to meet obligations (Current Ratio, Quick Ratio).  

• Solvency & Leverage: Evaluate your long-term financial stability and debt structure (Debt-to-Equity, Debt-to-Asset, Interest Coverage).

• Valuation Indicators: Generate key figures like Book Value and, if market data is provided, Market Cap, Enterprise Value, and related multiples (EV/EBITDA, P/E, P/S).

The results are calculated based only on the figures you enter and delivered directly to your email.

Navigating financial statement preparation, audit readiness, and company valuations can be complex and time-consuming, especially for companies in specialized sectors like mining, precious metals manufacturing, and digital asset trading (like ETH). Ensuring accuracy, compliance, and clear presentation is crucial for stakeholder confidence, audits, and securing funding.

Our Solution: Tools to Empower Your Financial Process

We offer a suite of practical spreadsheet-based tools and frameworks designed to assist accountants and financial managers in the mining and trading value chain:

1. Financial Statement Preparation Template (Google Sheets)

This comprehensive template, generated via Google Apps Script, provides a structured environment to prepare draft financial statements and supporting schedules from your existing Trial Balance.

• Key Features:

  • Standardized Structure: Creates core sheets (Trial Balance Import, Account Mapping, Income Statement, Balance Sheet, Cash Flow Statement) following standard layouts.

  • Industry-Specific Schedules: Includes dedicated sheets for tracking complex areas like ETH Transactions (ETH_Transactions_Log), Mining Production & Inventory (Mining_Inventory_Prod), and Fixed Assets & Depletion (FA_Depletion_Schedule) with relevant columns and basic formulas.

  • Guided Workflow: Sheet numbering and a detailed Manual sheet guide users through the process, explaining inputs, links, and required formulas.

  • Built-in Checks & Formulas: Includes TB debit=credit checks, BS balancing checks, structural subtotals (Gross Profit, Total Assets), and key calculations on schedules (e.g., running balances, basic depreciation).

• Benefits:

  • Consistency: Ensures a standardized approach to FS preparation period after period.

  • Audit Support: Generates organized working papers (draft FS and schedules) useful for audit preparation, helping to trace figures back to the TB.

  • Valuation Data: Produces clearly laid out historical Income Statement and Balance Sheet data essential for input into valuation models (DCF, Comps, etc.).

  • Clarity: Helps organize complex data specific to mining (depletion) and ETH transactions.

• Important Note: This template requires an accurate Trial Balance exported from your primary accounting software and relies on the user manually setting up the Account Mapping and adding the crucial SUMIF (or similar) formulas to link the Trial Balance to the IS/BS lines, guided by the included Manual sheet.

2. Financial Metrics Calculator Feeder Template (Google Sheets)

Need to quickly gather inputs for an online financial metrics calculator or standardized reporting form? This simpler template streamlines the process.

  • Convenience: Provides a clear final list ready for data entry elsewhere.

3. AI-Powered Analysis Frameworks (Conceptual Design)

We have also designed sophisticated frameworks ("DLVIUSTUS Funding Application Analyzer" / "The Deal Maker") for AI-driven analysis. While the AI implementation requires further development, these frameworks outline processes for:

• Risk Assessment: Evaluating financial, market, team, and execution risks based on provided data.

• Funding Application Screening: Analyzing viability, investor fit, and generating structured reports for funding decisions.

• Investment Opportunity Evaluation: Assessing market context, predictive models, KPIs, and ROI potential.

• (Future): Integration could allow AI analysis directly on the data prepared within our Financial Statement templates.
