Unleashing Financial Excellence: Expertise in Modeling and Valuation

I am a seasoned financial modeler and accountant with a focus on preparing financial reports and valuations for B2B companies preparing for mergers. My expertise in financial modeling includes analyzing existing books, performing corporate finance valuations, creating scenario and sensitivity simulations, and advising on growth strategies. I have successfully developed over 250 financial models and 75 business plans with a portfolio valued at over $10 million. My specialties include three statement models, discounted cash flow models, merger models, IPO models, leveraged buyout models, valuation models, project finance models, budgets, forecasts, option pricing models, due diligence reports, and Monte Carlo simulations. In addition to financial modeling, I am also a licensed IRS PTIN holder and authorized to sign tax returns in my capacity. I have extensive experience in tax preparation, including forms 1120, 1120S, 1065, 990, 990-PF, 990-T, 1040, 1040EZ, 1099, W-2, and state taxes. I have also maintained portfolios for clients with monthly turnovers over $50 million, with experience in Xero, QuickBooks, Sage UK and USA, Oracle, Freshbooks, Wave Apps, Oddo ERP, MS Dynamics, and SAP Business One. I am also available for spreadsheet review and can train your team in building robust, flexible, and transparent financial models using FAST (Flexible, Appropriate, Structured, and Transparent) modeling principles. My services include project finance modeling, enterprise reporting model, consultancy, fixing broken models, error checks, and data analysis. Client Testimonials: "Ilyas is a seasoned professional who possess great financial modeling and analysis skills. I enjoyed working with him on two projects for 10 days. He's very courteous, responsive, and cooperative. His exemplary dedication enabled me to complete my projects on time. Thank you, Ilyas :)" "Fantastic consultant who is VERY talented at taking Quickbooks information and formatting it into a marketing-focused P&L. We hired Ilyas for a small project, and it grew into creating all financial documentation for our data room for PE firms and investors. He is incredibly talented, and I highly recommend him. Also, he is a CPA, so he truly understands financials." "I hired Ilyas to help me produce a 5-year financial business plan for a TV and media production company. He was available immediately on call and extremely responsive. He understood what was needed without needing too much information from me. He turned it around in three days and did a handover debrief of all his projections and models." "I would highly recommend him and look forward to working with him again." "It was great working with Ilyas, he seems like a great person. From the first moment, he was very helpful, always willing to teach and help me using the work he was doing for me. Always available. I would completely recommend him." Don't hesitate to reach out if you're in need of a trusted financial modeling and accounting professional. I look forward to working with you! Best regards, Ilyas Anis
