What are financial statements and why are they important?

Financial statements are crucial tools for assessing the financial health and performance of a business. They provide a comprehensive summary of a company’s financial activities, position, and cash flows. 

Financial statements are essential for various stakeholders (such as shareholders, creditors, banks, etc.) to assess a company’s financial performance, make informed decisions, and ensure compliance with regulatory standards. They provide a comprehensive view of a business’s financial activities, enabling stakeholders to understand its strengths, weaknesses, opportunities, and threats. 

Financial statements tell the whole story of a business and while businesses understand the importance and need for them, they might not possess the skill set to make and interpret them!  

This is where we at SDF Consulting can help you in not only preparing meaningful financial statements, but also helping you understand key business metrics, and in the way helping you plan & manage your business.
