We help management teams strengthen financial planning, improve visibility into business performance and make better-informed decisions. We combine forecasting, financial modelling, performance analysis and management reporting to connect the numbers with the decisions they're meant to inform — from budgets and forecasts to pricing, capital allocation and board-level reporting.
01
We develop integrated budgets and forecasts that connect revenue, costs, headcount, working capital and cash flow with the underlying operational drivers of the business.
02
We build decision-oriented financial models that help management assess growth plans, pricing changes, investment requirements, funding needs and downside scenarios before committing resources.
03
We forecast cash inflows and outflows, assess liquidity requirements and identify potential funding gaps before they constrain the business.
04
We analyse pricing, costs, margins and customer or product economics to give management greater visibility into the financial implications of commercial decisions.
05
We assess competing uses of capital and their expected financial impact to support disciplined allocation decisions.
06
We develop performance frameworks that combine financial and operational information, helping management understand why results are ahead of or behind plan and where corrective action is required.
07
We design management reporting packs and dashboards that bring together financial and operational KPIs in a clear and consistent format for management, boards and investors.
Clients typically engage us to strengthen an FP&A function, build budgets and forecasts, improve management information, assess strategic decisions, improve cash flow visibility, develop pricing and profitability analysis, or introduce clearer KPI and reporting frameworks.
Our FP&A work is grounded in the same corporate finance and valuation discipline we apply across Axial's advisory work, built around the decisions management actually needs to make.
We connect financial performance with the commercial and operational factors driving the business.
Our experience in corporate finance, valuation and transaction advisory enables us to build models and analysis around real management and investment decisions.
We undertake defined projects, support recurring planning and reporting cycles, and work as an extension of existing finance teams.
We focus on models, dashboards and reporting tools that management teams continue to use after the engagement is complete.
