Group Overview
Headline consolidated metrics, net of intercompany. Forecast years (FY27–FY29) respond live to the Control Panel levers — including the working-capital days that flow through to net debt and bank interest. Budget

Full consolidated P&L, FY23–FY29. Forecast columns are shaded and show the live scenario; a small delta versus the workbook baseline appears whenever a lever is moved.

Year-end position (31 March). Stock, debtors, creditors and net borrowing flex with the working-capital day levers and sales growth — the same chain the workbook uses (stock ∝ COGS × stock-days, debtors ∝ sales × debtor-days, creditors ∝ COGS × creditor-days).

Annualised cash flow summary. Shown at workbook baseline; the live what-if engine drives the P&L and balance sheet (and therefore net debt & interest) — cash-flow re-statement is wired in Phase 3 alongside live actuals.

About this snapshot & going live
These are live figures pulled directly from Xero for Oxbridge Associates Ltd (UK), snapshotted on 2 June 2026. ARD International and Oxbridge BV are separate Xero organisations — connect them and the consolidated budget-vs-actual fills in automatically.
To make the deployed portal refresh itself, it reuses your existing oxbridge-accounts Netlify proxy (OAuth already done for all three orgs).
Control Panel
Flex the budget assumptions and watch the forecast recompute. The summary on the right shows the live scenario for the selected forecast year against the workbook baseline. Live levers drive the engine; Ref levers are reference inputs the workbook does not flow into the forecast (see Model Notes).
Live scenario
Model notes & fidelity
This portal's baseline reproduces the workbook to the pound (consolidated PBT FY27 £671,872 · FY28 £727,327 · FY29 £789,725). The what-if engine is an annual-grain, entity-aware reconstruction of the workbook's driver logic: sales growth is exact; UK (11.0%) and BV (10.2%) margins are applied separately; the BV contribution is translated at the FX lever; and the working-capital day levers flow through to net debt and bank interest. On the dominant lever (UK growth) the engine tracks the workbook recalc to within ~10% on the marginal change — the small residual is the dynamic profit→net-debt feedback that a static annual model approximates.
Some Control inputs are not connected to the forecast in the workbook itself. Where useful, this portal "completes" that wiring so the lever behaves intuitively; these are flagged below so you know where your Excel currently has gaps:
- Cost of Sales % (C31/D31): the workbook hard-sets forecast gross margin (~11% UK / 10.2% BV) and only uses this lever for an FY26 bridge cell. Here it acts as a margin adjustment (raising CoS% lowers margin).
- UK Freight % (C33) & Sales Commission (C36): not referenced by the forecast in the workbook. Wired here as cost ratios so they respond.
- Margin to UK (D37) and Bonus (C44/D44): not connected in the workbook; shown as reference inputs only.
- Intercompany %, VAT and Rent levers: reference inputs — material to the entity sheets but held at baseline in the consolidated what-if.
