Business Plan

The Business Plan Module is the Leanus space dedicated to construction of economic, capital and financial forecasts of the company. It allows you to transform historical data into a true strategic projection, automatically integrating the income statement, balance sheet, cash flow statement, ratios, DSCR, KPIs, and crisis indicators.

The plan is developed in real timeSimply enter your forecast assumptions and update the model to immediately see all the impacts on your business system. Every change is consistently reflected on every report, without the need for manual reconciliations.

From history to the future, automatically

The Leanus Business Plan always comes from Trend of the company. The last available period represents the starting point for the first year of the forecast, while subsequent years are calculated automatically. This way, the plan is not an abstract document, but a natural extension of the company's history.

Even in the absence of user input, Leanus still generates an automatic inertial plan that evaluates the company's ability to sustain its financial balance over time, especially in relation to its ability to generate cash and repay debt.

Free simulations and custom scenarios

When automatic guesses aren't enough, the user can enter an unlimited number of simulations: changes in costs, revenues, investments, taxes, debt, working capital, and any other operating levers. There is no mandatory order of entry: the hypotheses can be constructed starting from either the income statement or the balance sheet.

Each update recalculates the entire model in real timeLiquidity becomes the true summary indicator of the plan: it is not an imposed value, but the direct result of the forecasting choices made.

To support the forecasting model, Leanus also automatically processes the financial statement, accurately reconstructing operating, investment and financing cash flows.

The financial statement takes into account all user inputs and simulations performed, offering a clear and coherent vision of financial dynamics over time and strengthening the forward-looking reading of the plan's sustainability.

Business Plan also for Startups and Project finance

The form can also be used in the absence of any accounting history. In these cases, it is sufficient create a zero-valued base and build the plan in a totally prospective manner. This makes Leanus suitable not only for companies already operating, but also for startups, new business units, and individual investment projects.

The Business Plan can also be used as advanced simulation tool, to test the impact of specific events on the economic and financial structure: changes in working capital, new financing, amortization plans, increases in personnel costs, changes to the investment structure.
