WHY SHOULD YOU ATTEND?

If you don’t prepare your own profit and loss statement, you may not understand what yours are trying to communicate about your business's financial performance. Many business owners and senior executives have stacks of reports they never look at because none of them seems to make much sense. Understanding your P&L is vital to small businesses because it also serves as the income statement. Whether it’s time to apply for business credit or a loan, or time to sell your business, you’ll need to bring your P&Ls going back 2 to 3 years. This webinar will help you understand the terms, format, and key performance indicators of profit and loss statements.

LEARNING OBJECTIVES

  • Critical elements of a profit and loss
  • What are revenue, sales, and profit and when do I use these numbers?
  • Profit and loss as an income statement
  • Operating expenses, EBIT, EBITDA
  • Where are the losses? - How to tell if you’re spending more or earning less
  • More revenue is not growth – How do I tell the difference?
  • How often should I review and run a P&L?

WHO WILL BENEFIT?

  • CEO, COO, Company Owners
  • Small Business Owners
  • Entrepreneurs, Sole Proprietors, Self-Employed Professionals
  • Non-Profit Organizations
  • Grant Managers and Fund Directors
  • Business Management Professionals
  • Vice Presidents, Directors, and Senior Officers
  • Managers/Supervisors
  • Board Directors/Members
  • Business Brokers
  • Investors or other Business Buyers
