DCF models estimate enterprise and equity valuations by projecting future cash flows and discounting them to present value using WACC. This Skill automates DCF construction from historical financials, assumptions, and capex/working capital inputs to deliver valuation outputs.

Sensitivity analysis tests how changes in key assumptions—growth rates, discount rates, terminal values—impact valuation. This Skill identifies critical value drivers by systematically varying inputs to show which assumptions most influence the final enterprise value.

Yes. Monte Carlo simulation runs thousands of scenarios across variable assumptions to generate probability distributions and confidence intervals for valuations. This Skill executes Monte Carlo across diverse macroeconomic and growth scenarios to quantify valuation risk.

DCF-based models adapt across M&A, LBO, and project finance by adjusting assumptions for leverage, project duration, and risk profiles. This Skill supports these use cases through flexible scenario planning, WACC calculation, and terminal value estimation for each context.

Financial modeling requires historical income statements, balance sheets, cash flow data, and forward projections alongside assumptions for growth, capex, working capital changes, and WACC inputs. This Skill accepts these inputs and generates valuations, charts, and Excel model outputs.

Yes. This Skill incorporates governance practices including documentation, versioning, and validation to ensure models remain auditable, reproducible, and aligned with best practices across valuations and scenario updates.
