Introduction

This Financial Statement Analysis Fundamental training course is designed to explain how financial measures of corporate performance are calculated.
The Financial Statement Analysis Fundamental training course covers the basics of financial statement analysis and enables participants to confidently use financial ratios and financial terminology.
This is an introductory course designed for financial reports and accounts users with no prior or limited knowledge of corporate financial information.

Participants will also learn how to use:

  • A company financial statement distills the relevant information
  • How much cash the business generates.
  • Analysis of Liquidity
  • Analysis of Rentability
  • Ratio Analysis of Capital

Benefits of attending

This training course has the aim of providing the attendees with:

  • Sufficient knowledge to understand the information provided by the Income Statement, the Balance Sheet, and the Cash Flow Statement.
