Most business owners have a gut feeling about how things are going, but gut feelings are not enough when you are turning over £1m to £15m. Our business financial review sessions, or financial MOTs, give you a comprehensive, independent assessment of your financial health. At striveX, we designed these reviews for directors who want clarity without the ongoing commitment of a monthly strategy meeting.
A financial MOT is a structured review of your business finances, modelled on the annual vehicle check. Just as a car MOT identifies worn brakes or tyre issues before they cause an accident, a business financial review spots problems in your cash flow, margins, or cost base before they become critical.
At striveX, our accountancy reviews are particularly valuable for businesses that have grown rapidly. Fast growth often masks underlying issues: overtrading, margin erosion, or weak credit control. Our accounting review process examines your financial statements, management reports, tax position, and key ratios to build a complete picture of your business health.
The output is a clear, prioritised action plan. You will know exactly what is working well, what needs attention, and what could become a problem if left unaddressed. Many of our clients use the financial MOT as an annual checkpoint, whilst others book them before seeking investment, applying for funding, or entering a new market.
Tell us a little about your business and goals, and we’ll review whether StriveX is the right fit for your next stage of growth.
Our business financial reviews are comprehensive but jargon-free. We tailor the scope to your priorities, but a typical financial MOT covers the following areas:
We review your profit and loss, balance sheet, and cash flow statement for the current and prior periods. We identify trends, anomalies, and areas of concern.
We analyse your working capital cycle, debtor days, creditor terms, and stock holding to assess whether your cash flow supports your operations and growth plans.
We break down gross and net margins by product, service, or division to show you where profit is really being made and where it is leaking.
We check your current tax affairs for compliance risks and missed opportunities, including VAT, corporation tax, and director tax planning.
We assess whether your accounting software, bookkeeping processes, and reporting are fit for purpose as you scale. This includes reviewing your cloud accounting setup and migration options.
Every financial MOT concludes with a prioritised list of actions, with estimated impact and suggested timelines. You leave with clarity, not confusion.
Our accounting reviews are designed to be both diagnostic and practical. We do not simply hand you a report and disappear. Your striveX accountant discusses the findings with you, answers your questions, and helps you plan the next steps.
