Forecast
sheet row 7, so that it corrects the fiscal year for the Summary
sheet when the calendar year-end is not the same as the fiscal year-end. Previously, the Summary
sheet would sum up the years still using calendar years rather than fiscal years, a simple change to the formula on row 7 updates this.Hiring Plan
so it uses the timescale from Forecast
sheet, instead of recalculating the timescale. All sheets link to the timescale from Forecast
so that they are all consistent, previously this one was independent but now it's tied to the Forecast
sheet.Get Started
for the revenue calculations on Revenues
sheet so that the input for the starting number of revenue units is exposed on Get Started
. No change in model functionality, just a slight addition to make it clearer where to make that input.Launched the Talent Collective to help users find professionals to assist with financial models for startups and funds, business plans, valuations, and more. Details here.
Adding Search to the header to make it easier to find content and documentation specific to your needs.
New addition to product pages, adding category groupings (all venture capital models and all startup models) to reviews and ratings. Previously the ratings and reviews reported the ratings and reviews for each product and all products, now I've added a third section (in the middle of the ratings options) that displays the category-specific ratings and reviews for that product's category.
Created a Changelog (this page!) to track updates to products, classes, and offerings from Foresight. This page will highlight improvements to the models by surfacing the notes in each model's Changelog to the website, as well as broader updates about the company.
Kicked off Cohort 7 of the Cap Table and Exit Waterfall Masterclass. Next cohort to be scheduled soon.
Kicked off Cohort 3 of the How to Model Venture Funds. Next cohort to be scheduled soon.
New opportunity for financial modelers to be listed for referrals for projects. Details at Working with Foresight

Hosted a free, live workshop on modeling anti-dilution and their impact on cap tables. Understanding how down rounds impact dilution is an important area for companies in today's climate, I covered the theory and practice in modeling anti-dilution protection, with practical examples for you to use. Download the slides and spreadsheet here.
For more on modeling cap tables, I teach the Cap Table and Exit Waterfall Masterclass, a four session course that dives deeper into the topic.
