Financial Clarity Through Real Understanding

We've been teaching financial statement analysis since 2018, helping professionals across Australia build genuine expertise that makes a difference in their careers and their companies.

How We Started

Back in 2018, I was working as a senior analyst at a mid-sized firm in Sydney. Every week, I'd see colleagues struggle with financial statements — smart people who understood business but got lost in the numbers.

The training programs available were either too academic or too simplified. Nothing bridged that gap between theoretical knowledge and practical application. That's when I realized there was a better way to teach this stuff.

So we started kenavovial with a simple idea: teach financial analysis the way it's actually used in real business situations. No textbook examples that don't exist in the wild. Just honest, practical training that works.

What Drives Our Teaching

We focus on three core principles that shape everything we do — from course design to individual mentoring sessions.

Real-World Context

Every concept we teach comes with actual examples from Australian companies. You'll work with the same types of statements and scenarios you'll encounter in your job.

Practical Skills

We don't just explain what ratios mean — we show you how to spot red flags, identify trends, and present findings that actually influence business decisions.

Ongoing Support

Learning doesn't stop when the course ends. Our participants stay connected through quarterly workshops and peer networks that continue long after graduation.

Our Teaching Philosophy

Financial analysis isn't just about crunching numbers. It's about telling stories with data, understanding business health, and making recommendations that matter.

That's why our programs focus heavily on interpretation and communication. You'll learn to read between the lines of financial statements and explain your findings to people who need to make decisions based on your analysis.

  • Case studies from ASX-listed companies and private businesses across different sectors
  • Interactive workshops where you present findings and defend your analysis
  • Mentorship from working professionals who use these skills daily
  • Small class sizes that allow for personalized feedback and discussion

Cordelia Fairweather

Senior Financial Analyst & Program Director

Cordelia spent twelve years analyzing everything from mining companies to tech startups before founding kenavovial. She's particularly good at making complex ratio analysis feel approachable — probably because she remembers how confused she was when she started.

When she's not teaching, Cordelia consults for mid-market businesses across Australia, helping them understand their financial position and plan for growth. This real-world experience shapes every aspect of our curriculum.

"I believe anyone can learn financial analysis if it's taught properly. The key is connecting the numbers to the business story behind them."
