Read Financial Statements Like an Expert
Learning to analyse company financials isn't about memorising formulas. It's about understanding what the numbers actually tell you—and what they're hiding. We teach practical skills that accountants and business advisors use daily.

What You'll Actually Learn
Most people think financial statements are just rows of numbers. But every figure tells part of a story about how a business operates, where money flows, and what risks exist beneath the surface.
Cash Flow Reality
Profit doesn't pay bills—cash does. You'll learn why profitable companies still fail and how to spot cash problems before they become critical. We focus on operating, investing, and financing activities that reveal business health.
Balance Sheet Insights
Assets and liabilities sound simple until you start digging. We teach you to read beyond the totals and understand what assets actually mean, how debt structures affect stability, and where companies hide problems.
Income Statement Analysis
Revenue and expenses tell different stories depending on industry, business model, and accounting choices. You'll learn to identify quality earnings, spot manipulation red flags, and understand margin trends.

Before this program, I could read financial statements but didn't really understand what I was looking at. Now I can spot issues my clients miss in their own businesses. The case study approach made everything click—seeing real examples of how companies manipulate numbers changed how I look at every report.
