In plain English
Financial reports turn the numbers in your books into a picture of your business. The income statement shows whether you made a profit. The balance sheet shows what the business owns and owes. The cash flow statement shows where your cash came from and where it went. Banks, investors and SARS may ask for these reports, but more importantly, they show you what's working and what isn't.

FAQ
Common questions
Does my company need audited financial statements?
Many small private companies don't need an audit, but some do, depending on their size and activities. We'll help you find out, and if an audit or independent review is required, we prepare everything the auditor needs.
What's the difference between profit and cash?
Profit is what's left after expenses on paper. Cash is what's actually in the bank. A business can be profitable and still run short of cash, for example when customers pay late, so we look at both.
How soon after month-end do I get my report?
Once we have your bank statements and documents, we agree on a regular turnaround that works for your business.
