CFO Advisory Services

The Financial Leadership Your Business Deserves

Most growing businesses can't afford a full-time CFO — but they still need one. AFD CFO Advisory delivers senior-level financial expertise on a fractional basis, giving you the strategic insight and financial discipline that drives real growth.

We become your CFO — attending leadership meetings, advising on major decisions, and building the financial infrastructure your business needs to scale. No overhead. No long-term commitment. Just results.

What We Do For You

Six core service areas — each designed to give you the financial clarity and control your business needs to grow.

Financial Strategy & Planning

We work with you to build a clear financial roadmap — aligning your business goals with a realistic, data-driven plan for getting there. From annual budgets to 3-year growth models, we give you the visibility to make confident decisions.

  • Annual budget development and management
  • 3–5 year financial modeling and scenario planning
  • KPI identification and performance benchmarking
  • Strategic planning support for leadership teams

Cash Flow Management

Cash flow surprises kill businesses. We build the forecasting systems and processes that give you a clear, rolling view of your cash position — so you're never caught off guard and always know what's coming.

  • 13-week rolling cash flow forecasting
  • Working capital optimization
  • Accounts receivable and payable process improvement
  • Cash flow crisis identification and remediation

Financial Reporting & Analysis

We transform your financial data into clear, actionable reports that tell the real story of your business. Monthly management reports, board packages, and custom dashboards — built for decision-makers, not accountants.

  • Monthly management reporting packages
  • Board and investor reporting
  • Variance analysis and trend identification
  • Custom executive dashboards

Forecasting & Budgeting

Stop guessing. We build dynamic financial models that let you test assumptions, stress-test scenarios, and plan for multiple futures — so you can make bold moves with confidence.

  • Revenue and expense forecasting
  • Departmental and project-level budgeting
  • Rolling forecast updates and reforecasting
  • What-if scenario modeling

Banking & Lender Relations

We prepare you for every conversation with your bank or lender — from routine covenant compliance to securing new credit facilities. We speak the language of lenders and help you present your business in the best possible light.

  • Loan package preparation and presentation
  • Covenant compliance monitoring and reporting
  • Lender relationship management
  • Credit facility structuring and negotiation support

M&A and Transaction Advisory

Whether you're acquiring a competitor, preparing for a sale, or bringing on an investor, we provide the financial due diligence and deal support to protect your interests and maximize your outcome.

  • Buy-side and sell-side financial due diligence
  • Business valuation support
  • Deal structure analysis and negotiation support
  • Post-transaction integration planning
