Finance & Logistics
Run the numbers before you decide
We help management and owners work through investments, financing, restructurings and changes of ownership, and follow up once the decision is made.
Advisers who already know your numbers
Before an investment, a new hire, a financing round or a change of ownership, we help you work through the options and see what they mean for profit and cash flow. If we already handle your accounting, we start from numbers we know. If your accounting sits elsewhere, we first go through the books so the calculation rests on numbers that hold.
“We can really recommend Stormyran! They have helped us ever since we became two partners in the firm and have supported us all the way.”

Who it is for
Owner-run companies
The owner wants someone to think out loud with before bigger decisions, such as how much salary to take, an investment or a new hire.
- Salary and dividends under the 3:12 rules
- Investment calculations

Companies with a management team
Management needs a budget, forecasts and KPIs to steer by, and sometimes an outside look at profitability.
- Budgets and forecasts
- Profitability per product or customer

Questions we often help with
Can we afford the investment, and how should it be financed?
Which products, customers or departments are profitable?
How much should the owner take out in salary and dividends?

How it works
- 01
A conversation about the question
We go through the decision you are facing and the options you have. The conversation is free of charge.

Numbers
We take the figures from the books and build a calculation, forecast or analysis that shows what the options mean for profit and cash flow.
- Access to the books and your plans
- 03

We go through the material with you, and with the bank, the board or the owners if needed.

Follow-up
Once the decision is made, we follow up the outcome against the calculation. For ongoing clients we recommend a review every quarter.
Interim controller or finance manager
When a key person leaves or is on leave, or the company is going through a period of change, we can step in as controller or finance manager for a while. We agree the scope and length, and whether the work is on site or remote.
The person stepping in can draw on colleagues at Stormyran who work with accounting and payroll, and when the assignment ends you can carry on with the same team.
Typical assignments
Investment
Salary and dividends
Financing
Budget and forecast
Ownership and structure
Frequently asked questions
The accounts show how things have gone. Advice is about the decisions ahead of you, such as an investment, a financing round or a new company structure. If we handle your accounting, the advice starts from the same numbers.
For ongoing clients we recommend a review every quarter. During bigger changes or investments we meet more often.
Yes. We prepare the material, compare the financing options and support you in discussions with banks and investors.
