The curriculum of the workshop is so designed to make delegates super proficient in Excel and they develop the skillsets which will put that in a good stead as a Finance Analyst in a consulting, equity research or an Investment Banking profile. For anybody to efficiently build financial and business models, one needs to take the excel bull by the horns by learning the basics content and then graduating to advanced level content. The basics of excel will ensure learning and applying fo relevant financial formulas, navigating in the model, scaling up speed and starting to creating, formulating and conceiving own formula in given situations. That is how we start

These concepts are absolutely critical to mastering any financial and valuation analysis. How to integrate the financial segments. We answer all the rarely answered “WHY” questions—”why do we do this, why do we do that”—instead of answering: “well, just because” or “that’s the way it’s always been done”, we actually clearly and easily explain the logic of why and how not just the what.

Trading Comps is a pricing technique. It is one of the most widely valuation techniques by investment bankers and finance professionals. Under this we would learn how to build a detailed trading comps right from the selection of peers to the analysis of final output. We would also understand how to compare and use these multiples as a valuation technique, what could the possible reason for differences in the multiples and how to tackle those differences etc.
- Learn the steps required to construct a meaningful trading comps analyses (enterprise value, latest twelve months numbers, cleaning reported financials, calculate & benchmark multiple)
- Impact of convertible securities – options, warrants, RSUs, convertible bonds, convertible preference shares
- Treatment of leases (operating and capital), R&D expenses etc.

Precedent transaction/ deal comps is a variant of trading comps. It is one of three major valuation techniques used by the investment bankers (other than trading comps and DCF valuation). The basic premises of this technique is deal value (i.e. what multiples were offered for other transactions in the past under similar purchasing conditions). Under this technique, we would learn how to calculate transaction multiples, how these multiples are different from one we calculated under trading comps, under what situation this valuation technique is appropriate to apply etc.
- Learn the steps required to construct a meaningful transaction comps analyses (enterprise value, latest twelve months numbers at transaction date, cleaning reported financials, calculate & benchmark multiple)
- Basic difference between transaction comps and trading comps
- Impact of controlling premium on multiples and what is the basis of size of controlling premium
- Under what valuation situation transaction comp multiples are appropriate to use
Under DCF valuation technique, we try to attach value to the business/asset based upon its fundamentals. This technique is entirely different from relative comps technique as in case of DCF valuation we attempt to find value of asset whereas in relative valuation we try to find price of the asset (driven by demand and supply) which may be substantially different from its fundamental value found under DCF valuation. Under this packet of valuation, we would try to find value of the asset based upon its fundamentals; cash flows, risk, growth, etc.
- Projection of detailed free cash flows of the company
- What should be the ideal projection period for the target company
- How to factor various risks in projections and cash flows
- How to switch between currency of projection and its corresponding impact on discount rate

- Different ways of calculation of terminal value and their implications on DCF value (EBITDA multiple and perpetual growth methods and their inherent limitations)
- Different ways of calculating beta and their implication on WACC and DCF value
Treatment of options differently in DCF valuation from how we treated them in trading comps and why?
Merger model is prepared to find the impact of transaction (merger/acquisition) on the future earnings of the remaining shareholders in the new company after the transaction. Under this we try to find the short term and long term impact of transaction on the future earnings of shareholders (i.e. whether the future earnings of the shareholders would increase or decrease due to this acquisition). Under this we would learn:
- How to build a fully integrated merger model to calculate whether the transaction is accretive or dilutive to the shareholders
- Impact of stock deal or cash deal on the future earnings of the shareholders of the company
- How to factor synergies in the pro forma earnings of new company after acquisition
