Whether you’re looking to dip your toes into financial statements for the first time, or you’re just looking to brush up your understanding of current practices, this session is for you. We will cover the basics of reading and understanding financial statements, including, but not limited to, the main four financials: Income Statement, Balance Sheet, Cash Flow Statement, Statement of Changes in Shareholder Equity.
