What is financial analysis?

Financial analysis is the process of evaluating a company’s figures to understand its financial position and development. By analysing the income statement and balance sheet, cash flow and KPIs, the company gains a clear picture of how the business is performing and which factors are driving the results.

Why is it important?

An analysis helps a company understand how its finances are actually performing and where development is heading. With the right insights, management can set relevant goals, follow up on strategies and make decisions that strengthen competitiveness in both the short and long term.

Benefits of financial analysis in Oxceed

Oxceed makes financial analysis both easier and more relevant. Through automatic integration with the accounting system, the figures are always up to date, and all data is gathered in one place. This gives management and the board a complete overview that makes it easier to understand the company’s development and make decisions in time.

Decision support for management and the board

A shared decision support system enables management and the board to rely on the same, up-to-date information. When different documents and figures from different points in time are used, uncertainty easily arises, and discussions risk focusing on questioning the data rather than looking ahead.

When all financial information is gathered in a central, secure and real-time updated source, the focus changes. Instead of discussing which figure is correct, the conversation shifts to what the figures actually mean for the business. This creates transparency and trust – two important foundations for effective leadership. With a shared view of reality, management and the board can act in alignment, make faster and more well-informed decisions, and steer towards common goals.

 
 

Questions and answers about Financial Analysis

It is the process of evaluating a company’s KPIs to understand its financial situation. By analysing the income statement and balance sheet, cash flow and KPIs, the company gains a clear picture of how the business is performing. In practice, this means tracking trends in revenue and costs, assessing profitability, liquidity and solvency, and understanding how capital is tied up and released. When these insights are viewed in an accounting and valuation context, they can also be analysed using cash flow models to examine their impact on the company. The result is a reliable basis for decision-making that helps management and the board identify risks and opportunities early, compare performance against budget and make informed decisions.

 
 

A financial analysis makes it possible to identify risks and opportunities early. It provides management and the board with a basis for decision-making to follow up on goals, compare periods and make decisions that strengthen the company’s competitiveness. Conducting analyses using KPIs also lays the foundation for building a stable financial position with a realistic valuation.

A financial analysis is carried out by reviewing the company’s financial reports, KPIs and cash flow. This may involve comparing periods, following up on budgets, analysing profitability or identifying trends in revenue and costs.

Common KPIs include profitability, solvency, liquidity, cash flow and growth. KPIs can be divided into different categories, such as profitability, liquidity and growth, to provide a clearer picture of a company’s finances. Together they show how the company is performing and how resources are used over time. KPIs also highlight other aspects of the company’s finances, such as efficiency and risk. Asset turnover and debt ratio are also examples of important KPIs. Together they create a comprehensive view of the company’s financial position and provide a basis for decision-making.

In Oxceed, all data is automatically retrieved from the accounting system and updated in real time. Oxceed also offers features that are not available in Excel, making it easier to customise and visualise reports.
