Financial Statement Services

Welgaard provides several different types of financial statements for our clients. Working closely with you, our team can help determine what type of financial statement service best fits your business needs.

Lenders typically require different levels of assurance based on the size of the loan, the collateral, and their determination of overall risk. If requirements are unclear, we can often speak with your lender about the level of service that will satisfy their requirements.

Financial Statement Preparation

These financial statements are prepared for business owners who need current, up-to-date financial information in order to understand their business’s financial standing. Accurate financial statements enable business owners to make informed decisions based on recent data. With this service, Welgaard takes on a role similar to that of a CFO at a larger company. Our team can prepare these statements monthly, quarterly or on whatever schedule is most useful for your business.

Financial Statement Compilation

A financial statement compilation is the service of applying accounting and financial reporting knowledge to assist management in the presentation of financial statements; without providing any assurance on the financial statements. Our team can prepare financial statement compilations for small, medium, and large businesses that do not need any assurance.

Financial Statement Review

Financial statement reviews provide limited assurance that there are no material modifications needed on a financial statement. Welgaard typically prepares reviews for entities that have loans or investors that do not require audited financial statements.

Financial Forecast

Forecasts are used to help business leaders anticipate a company’s projected financial position. It estimates future revenue and expenses based on assumptions that are expected to happen. Forecasts are used to help our clients measure their progress and establish their business goals. Our team can provide preparation assistance and compilation services for prospective information.

Financial Projection

Financial projections represent a “what if” analysis and are based on three types of assumptions:

  • Things that are expected to happen
  • Hypothetical situations and events
  • Things that would be expected to occur if the hypothetical situation occurs.

Projections provide valuable information to a company in order to make important financial decisions for the future.

Personal Financial Statement

A personal financial statement shows your net worth. We calculate the total value of your assets and subtract your debts and liabilities in order to figure out your net worth at any given point in time. This statement can be used to show an individual’s financial stability when applying for a loan or other credit.
