Bottom-Up Financial Model


The bottom-up financial modeling approach builds the company’s future performance by starting with low-level operational and customer data and working “up” to revenue, and then profitability.  The approach dynamically links product and market information to the sales projections, including any acquisition cost and price discounting.  This is used as the basis for the pitch logic, investment thesis and valuation.  Often various different scenarios are presented.
