A general waterfall is an analytical tool that visually presents the sequential breakdown of a starting value to a final result by displaying intermediate values ​​and leakage points. This can be used by companies to track data on each step. A waterfall chart is also known by many other names: waterfall graph, bridge graph, bridge chart, cascade chart, flying bricks chart and net profit waterfall chart. Regardless of the name, this versatile chart is a great way to provide a quick visual into the breakdown of data. Within a waterfall chart, the initial and final values ​​are shown as columns with the individual adjustments depicted as floating steps. The waterfall chart as a financial analysis would typically show the values ​​as per each preference round, and how the exit value is split between each round of investors. The key feature of a waterfall chart is that shows each step in the final result and demonstrates how you got there. Waterfall analysis as a financial model is used mainly by the shareholders of the company, but can also be used by those making important financial decisions of the company. The waterfall analysis would show the shareholder the amount each receives respectively upon the exit or sale of the company. The main stakeholders using this would include – founders, VC firms, angel investors, bank institutions, employees, directors, managers, lawyers and accountants. To better understand the capabilities of a waterfall chart, let’s look at an example of counting active contracts at the end of the year. Start with the number of contracts carried over from the previous year, add to that number of new contracts that you earned during that year, and then reduce the number of cancelled contracts and completed tasks. Eventually, you will reach the number of active contracts at the end of the year.
