I build financial projections that get SBA loans approved. I spent 12 years on the lender side of the desk, where my team closed 1,500+ SBA loans, and today I run ProjectionHub, where we build the financial projections and business plans that underwriters say yes to. ๐Ÿ“Š ๐™ฐ ๐™ต๐™ด๐š† ๐™ฝ๐š„๐™ผ๐™ฑ๐™ด๐š๐š‚ ๐šƒ๐™ท๐™ฐ๐šƒ ๐™ผ๐™ฐ๐šƒ๐šƒ๐™ด๐š โœ… 1,500+ SBA loans closed during my 12 years running an SBA lending program โœ… Grew a small business loan fund from $100K to more than $50M lent โœ… 1,000+ custom financial models and financial projections delivered since 2012 โœ… 50,000+ founders have used ProjectionHub's financial projection templates and tools โœ… Clients approved for millions in SBA 7(a) and SBA 504 financing โญ Here is what a recent Upwork client said: "We found Adam, and what a blessing it was! He went WAY above and beyond our expectations. The lender we are working with was blown away at the critical information they received from us, which allowed our process to progress easily and much faster." (Curtis S., SBA loan financial projections) ๐Ÿฆ ๐š†๐™ท๐šˆ ๐™ป๐™ด๐™ฝ๐™ณ๐™ด๐š๐š‚ ๐š‚๐™ฐ๐šˆ ๐šˆ๐™ด๐š‚ Most financial projections fail at the bank for one reason: they were built by someone who has never read a projection the way an underwriter reads one. I have. I approved and declined SBA loan applications for over a decade, so every financial projection I build starts from the question the lender will actually ask: does the cash flow cover the debt? That means DSCR, break-even, and coverage ratios are not an afterthought in my financial projections. They are the spine. ProjectionHub is also the company behind 100+ CPA-developed, industry-specific financial projection templates, so your financial projections start from proven revenue logic for your industry, not a blank spreadsheet. We have built financial models across healthcare, construction, real estate, e-commerce, SaaS, retail, restaurants, and franchises. ๐Ÿ“ˆ ๐š†๐™ท๐™ฐ๐šƒ ๐™ธ ๐™ณ๐™พ โ–ธ Financial projections for SBA loans: 5-year, 3-statement financial projections with DSCR, break-even, and coverage ratio analysis built for SBA 7(a), SBA 504, and bank underwriting โ–ธ Business plans: lender-ready business plans with integrated financial projections, market research, use of funds, and staffing plans โ–ธ Financial models for investors: revenue models, unit economics, and investor-grade financial projections for pre-seed through Series A raises โ–ธ Acquisition financial projections: pro forma financial projections and debt service analysis for business acquisitions โ–ธ SBA loan prequalification: document review, maximum SBA loan sizing, and direct introductions to best-fit SBA lenders โ–ธ Financial model review: validating the assumptions in your existing financial model or financial projections before they reach a lender or investor ๐Ÿค ๐š†๐™ท๐™พ ๐™ธ ๐š†๐™พ๐š๐™บ ๐š†๐™ธ๐šƒ๐™ท Founders applying for SBA loans, buyers acquiring a business with SBA or bank financing, startups preparing investor-grade financial projections, and existing businesses expanding with new debt.

My clients have raised over $1BN in debt and equity using models I built, from seed rounds through Series B, including a unicorn and multiple $100M+ ARR businesses. I keep a small client base by design. The best results I've delivered have come from relationships where I have real context on the business, not one-off projects. I'm the person you call before a board meeting, during a fundraise, when an acquisition lands on your desk, or when you just need someone who understands your numbers as well as you do. Financial Modeling: A model is only as good as the understanding behind it. I build FP&A models with a deep focus on usability, auditability, and, increasingly, AI integration. The goal is a financial source of truth that different teams across the business can actually work from. Transaction Advisory: Extensive private equity and M&A experience across hundreds of millions of dollars of transactions. LBO models, waterfall structures, complex valuations, diligence-ready outputs. When the model is the deal, the details matter, and that's where the investment banking training shows up. Send over a deck, a business plan, or just describe what you're working on. I'll scope it same day.
