The file
An .xlsx with live formulas, in the language and currency you choose, for Excel, Google Sheets and LibreOffice. The PDF or PowerPoint report carries the summary and the reading of the results.
FAQ
Is it reliable enough to negotiate a sale or a fundraise?
It is a first estimate, built the way an analyst would: DCF and sector multiple, from published accounts and dated market data. Every assumption is visible and editable, and the Excel model can be checked line by line. For a transaction, have the assumptions reviewed by your accountant or adviser.
Do I need a finance background?
No. A name, a SIREN or your own figures are enough, and every result comes with a plain-language reading and a glossary: what the figure means, where it comes from, what moves it. The detailed models follow investment-banking conventions for those who want to adjust everything.
Are the formulas really live?
Yes. Change an assumption on the Inputs sheet and the whole workbook recalculates.
Does the file work in Google Sheets?
Yes, as well as in Excel and LibreOffice.
Can I edit the file?
Yes, it is yours: add rows, sheets and your own formatting.
Where does the company data come from?
Public sources: the French government's company search API for the company's identity, BCE/INPI financial ratios for its accounts, and the annual accounts filed with INPI for the opening balance sheet; for listed companies, annual reports filed with the SEC (EDGAR) and ESEF reports collected by XBRL International, converted at the ECB reference rate. Sector comparisons use BCE/INPI open data; market data comes from the ECB, the U.S. Treasury, the Bank of England, the Bank of Canada and Aswath Damodaran (NYU Stern). Sources are shown in the application.
What happens if the company's accounts are confidential?
Bridgesheet cannot read them, but you can enter your own figures in “Value a company”: revenue, EBITDA, debt, cash and sector are enough to get the value range, its reading and the report. If only the latest filing is confidential, the prefill uses the latest public financial year, and you can correct it.
Can I edit the prefilled data?
Yes. Every prefilled value stays editable before you download, and the Excel file keeps its formulas: change an assumption and the whole workbook recalculates.
What language is the file in?
In one of six languages: English, French, Spanish, German, Italian or Portuguese, chosen when you download. Formulas stay in English.
Do you keep my assumptions?
They are used for the calculation and are not stored.
