Scaling with Confidence: Building a Future-Ready Financial Model for a Health Tech Startup

Scaling with Confidence: Building a Future-Ready Financial Model for a Health Tech Startup

Project Background & Objective

A Pre-Series health tech startup based in New York City, backed by ~USD 20 million in funding, approached AND with a clear need—its existing financial model lacked the structure and depth to support decision-making in a fast-moving market. The previous framework failed to differentiate revenue streams or accurately forecast cash flow, creating roadblocks in strategic planning and investor communication.

To support the client's growth and funding ambitions, our engagement focused on the following:

  • Build a comprehensive, modular financial model accommodating both enterprise and direct-to-consumer revenue
  • Reflect diverse pricing structures—subscriptions and service-based—and provide clear, real-time insights through intuitive dashboards
  • Enable realistic forecasting, cash flow visibility, and scenario planning to inform funding strategies and operational decisions

Our Approach

Our comprehensive approach involved:

  • Deep-Dive Review: Analysed historical financial data and mapped key revenue drivers across business lines

  • Modular Financial Architecture: Built dedicated modules for each revenue stream, tailored to their billing cycles and pricing structures

  • Scenario-Based Forecasting: Integrated dynamic scenario analysis to simulate multiple growth paths and their financial impact

  • Operational Alignment: Incorporated Sales and Operations Planning (SNOP) to account for scaling costs and future investment needs

  • Dashboard and SOP Development: Delivered real-time dashboards for leadership use and documented SOPs to standardize reporting and data handling

Health Tech Financial Model Analysis

Our Impact

Our work gave the client more than just a spreadsheet—it delivered a decision-making engine. The model became central to investor conversations and operational planning, helping leadership clearly understand their financial runway, refine their capital strategy, and make faster, better-informed decisions.

The improved clarity supported a successful raise of ~USD 15 million in follow-on funding and led the client to onboard AND as their fractional FP&A partner. With ongoing model enhancements and financial advisory, we continue to support the client's strategic agility in an ever-evolving health tech landscape.

At AND, we didn't just build a model—we created a foundation for smarter decisions, confident fundraising, and scalable growth.
