Preparing or Rolling Over Models for the Next Year - Question For Equity Research Analysts or Associates
My senior analyst told me that once the fourth quarter results are announced and models updated, I need to prepare or roll over the models for the next year. I have heard about this but unfortunately no one has ever shown me how to do this. Any help would be greatly appreciated.
If "roll over" means the same thing everywhere then...
What he wants you to do is update the model, so that when earnings are announced next quarter all you have to do is plug in the numbers.
So go into the model and highlight the all the cells under the quarter that you will have to input numbers into (Not formula cells; since you won't have to edit them).
Adjust the TTM so that it will account for the correct cells. (Since he wants you to roll forward for 1Q14, so TTM will be 1Q14+4Q13+3Q13+2Q13)
Do the same for NTM (2Q14+3Q14+4Q14+1Q15)
edit: Adjust LastQ on the BS to show 1Q14. All of my comments assume you're rolling forward the model for 1Q14.
you basically copy paste 4 qtrs + year columns and make sure everything works ok. you're really f'd if u didn't have at least 1 full FY remaining after filling out the qtr.
I have 2014 and 2015 annuals. Do I just insert 4 columns and copy and paste 2013 quarterlys into the IS, B/S, CF/S?
