About this pro forma
The underlying engine rolls cafes forward, ramps capacity utilisation, and converts transactions through espresso, brewed coffee, food, and retail tiers at explicit price indices. Subscription and loyalty income plus mobile and delivery fees layer onto the transaction build.
The pro forma carries the barista- and manager-heavy cost stack through EBITDA, then bridges to unlevered free cash flow after NOPAT, depreciation, build-out capex, maintenance capex, and working capital. Operators and investors can read enterprise value, equity value, and value per share from the DCF.
What every model includes
Live formulas, no hardcoded values
Outputs are driven by live formulas, so the workbook updates from its assumptions instead of relying on hardcoded results.
All assumptions in one tab
Inputs are clearly marked in the Assumptions tab and separated from calculations, making it clear what to change and what to leave intact.
Statements always balancing
For integrated-statement models, the balance sheet, cash flow, and supporting schedules tie through properly.
Distinct schedules for clarity
Debt, working capital, taxes, and cash flow can get messy quickly. We group calculations in clear schedules, not across disconnected tabs.
No hidden macros or external links
There are no unexplained external workbook links or macros to undermine auditability or portability.
Changes flow through the model
Update a key driver and see the impact carry through the forecast, financing, and return outputs. We never use hardcoded numbers in formulas.

Created by ex-finance professionals
Hey, I’m Alex and I created Finamodel.
Over my years in the finance industry I kept building the same models over and over again. Same structure, same assumptions, different logo. So I started building frameworks to turn them into clean, reusable templates.
Every model here is one I’d actually use for a client, and I personally vet each one before it goes up.
I’m not an expert in every industry, but I’ve built enough models to know what belongs in one. And when something is completely foreign to me, I reach out to my network for experts to work on our models with us.
Having a template library on hand cuts a first build from hours to minutes.
Need help finding your model? You’ll find me in the Finamodel app!
Frequently asked
How is coffee revenue projected?+
Closing cafes, transactions per cafe, utilisation, product mix, and tier pricing generate transaction revenue; ancillary fees are added separately.
What does the product mix show?+
It separates espresso, brewed coffee and tea, food and pastry, and retail beans and merchandise so ticket and margin changes are visible.
Why use unlevered cash flow?+
Build-out capex and working capital mean EBITDA is not cash, so the pro forma values the chain from unlevered free cash flow.
Who uses this pro forma?+
Coffee operators, roll-up teams, lenders, and investors use it for expansion, pricing, and acquisition decisions.
