What actually arrives.
Section by section, the shape of a completed initiation note and which step of the run produced each part. Page ranges are typical — a note runs 40 to 50 pages depending on how much of a business there is to explain.
Summary and recommendation
Rating, price target, the implied return, and the thesis in three paragraphs. Written so a portfolio manager who reads only this page has the argument.
Investment thesis
The two or three things that have to be true, each stated as a claim with the evidence under it and the observable that would falsify it.
Business and market
What the company sells, to whom, at what margin, and against whom. Segment economics, the addressable market, market share and where it is moving.
Financial analysis
Five years of history rebuilt from filings: growth, margin bridges, returns on capital, working-capital behavior, the debt schedule and covenant headroom.
Projections
Six years forward on named drivers, each one traceable to something in the business section rather than to a growth rate typed into a cell.
Valuation
DCF with the WACC build shown, trading comps, precedent transactions, a football field, and a two-way sensitivity grid on the assumptions that actually move the answer.
Risks and the bear case
The bear case argued properly rather than listed — written as its own advocate would write it, then answered.
Appendix
Full model output as tables, the exhibit index, and the source list with a link against every figure that came from outside the model.
You get the working files, not just the PDF.
The model is the point. A note you cannot interrogate is a note you have to take on faith, so the spreadsheet arrives with its formulas live and its assumptions in labeled cells — with a client-ready note, and with every note on a coverage plan.
The note itself. 40–50 pages, every exhibit embedded at print resolution, internal links resolving.
Sixteen tabs of live formulas — not pasted values. Change a driver and the valuation moves. Included from the client-ready licence up.
Every exhibit as a separate 300 DPI file, generated from the model, ready to drop into your own deck.
The underlying research with its citations intact, if you want to check the work or build on it.
Pick a name and see it for yourself.
A run takes about five hours and costs $29. You will know inside the first ten pages whether it is worth the next one.
