I've sat across the table from boards and bankers when cash got tight. The story is almost always the same: nobody saw the covenant problem until the quarter had already closed. Put in your numbers below and you'll see it now, while you still have weeks to do something about it.
The dashed line is the least cash you can hold and still meet your days-cash covenant.
I'll send you a PDF with your numbers, what they mean in plain English, and the first three things I'd do if I were sitting in your seat.
I'll email your one-pager personally within two business days. You'll also get occasional notes on cash and covenants; unsubscribe anytime. Privacy note.
For nine years I've closed the books and sat in the lender meetings for rural health and special districts. Small finance teams rarely have time to build a 13-week cash forecast until they're already in trouble, and by then the bank is asking the questions. This gives you the first look in a few minutes, before anyone else asks.
