16 Not For Distribution – Private and Confidential to Adaptive Planning and Client
Planning is Essential in a Recession

The CFO’s Role in Navigating the Downturn


CFOs need to replace traditional budgeting and planning with a more aggressive crisis-
planning mode focused on cash. They should prepare scenarios based on different economic
assumptions and risks, such as the sudden unavailability of funding or bankruptcies of major
customers or suppliers. And they must develop contingency plans in case the scenarios
come to pass. Survival is not a certainty.
“The CFO’s Role in Navigating the Downturn,” The McKinsey Quarterly, December 2008

The Unfair Advantage of SaaS

Transforming the Industry


ƒ “The rise of the cloud is more than just another platform shift that gets geeks excited. It will
profoundly change the way people work and companies operate.” - The Economist

ƒ “… in the midst of a profound shift from client-server to cloud computing. The economics
are truly compelling, with cost advantages of 3-5X for business apps.” - Merrill Lynch

ƒ SaaS is now commonplace and having a very real impact on IT. Users should not wait
but should explore cloud and SaaS opportunities from new vendors. - Gartner

Demonstration

„ Financial forecasting is crucial, and even more so when times are


tough
„ You need visibility and the ability to evaluate scenarios quickly
„ Adaptive Planning gives you the tools you need:
– Scenario analysis: What if sales are 20% lower? What if I cut 5% of staff?
– Comparative reporting: budget vs. forecast, scenario comparisons
– Rolling actuals, forecasts: 9 months actuals from Netsuite, 3 months forecast
– Complete, integrated financial statements: quickly assess future cash impact
– Driver-based analysis: build calculations based on key business drivers
