Challenge

Financial model detached from the business; burn rate out of control

Solution

FP&A system rebuild and fundraising readiness

## Background

Astralan (fictional) is a Series B SaaS company serving mid-to-large retail clients. Revenue was growing, but leadership had less and less grip on where cash was going: budgets were siloed by department, forecast definitions changed every quarter, and burn-rate discussions stayed at the level of feelings.

## What we did

- Rebuilt a driver-based model linking all three statements, so revenue, margin and cash burn shared one set of business drivers
- Moved departmental budgets onto a single rolling-forecast process, updated monthly and calibrated quarterly
- Prepared scenario-based funding requirements and a diligence-ready data room

## Result

Six months later the company entered fundraising with clear unit economics and closed a ¥150M Series C (demo data). More importantly, leadership could finally weigh growth against cash on the same page.

> "The model stopped being a finance document and became the decision tool leadership uses every week." — CFO, Astralan (fictional)
