It\u2019s also about running a business. Of critical importance is the need to keep an eye on your financial statements. If you don\u2019t, you\u2019ll miss out on crucial insights that could mean the difference between building a valuable asset and simply making a living.<\/p>\n<p>Think of financial statements as a reflection of your clinic\u2019s health status. They\u2019re packed with numbers that explain how your practice is doing fiscally.<\/p>\n<p>Financial statements can be confusing, even intimidating, until you become comfortable reading them. You\u2019ll want to focus on the profit and loss statement, balance sheet and cash-flow report. While the cash-flow report is optional \u2014 my CPA friends might disagree \u2014 consider finding another accountant if yours doesn\u2019t deliver a balance sheet or says you don\u2019t need one. If you want a loan to buy equipment or remodel your clinic, a lender will likely request a balance sheet to determine your ability to manage debt.<\/p>\n<p>While lenders use balance sheets to gauge creditworthiness, your objective differs. Use yours to determine how much cash earns little to no interest in bank accounts. Do you need that much ready cash, or could you invest in a certificate of deposit or money market account? Also, do your loan balances decrease every month? If not, did you miss a payment? More likely, someone mistakenly recorded the full payment or the principal and interest on the P&amp;L. While the interest expense belongs on the P&amp;L, the principal should appear on the balance sheet. If you took out a new loan, do you see it there, and is the amount correct? While the balance sheet isn\u2019t exciting, if the numbers are wrong, your P&amp;L is wrong, too.<\/p>\n<p>Before you review a P&amp;L statement, add a column showing each expense as a percentage of gross fees. It will help you identify whether your cost-control efforts are making a difference.<\/p>\n<p>If you don\u2019t have much experience looking at financials, start with a two-month comparison, like June versus July. The most critical question is, \u201cDo the differences make sense?\u201d If you can\u2019t explain conflicting numbers, investigate them immediately. Reconciling last month\u2019s figures is much easier if you do it now instead of in six months.<\/p>\n<p>That said, costs will be higher when your practice is busier. After all, you\u2019ll run more laboratory tests, and your team will consume more <a href=\"https:\/\/todaysveterinarypractice.com\/\">medications, vaccines and sutures<\/a>. Your payroll will be higher, too, reflecting additional staff hours and higher production bonuses for your doctors. As a percentage of gross fees, those amounts should be relatively stable. If they aren\u2019t, you must investigate.<\/p>\n<p>Expenses like facility and equipment rent, insurance, and telephone charges shouldn\u2019t change much throughout the year. Other expenses with normal monthly fluctuations are utilities, professional dues and office supplies. On the other hand, continuing education and travel expenses can vary depending on when conference registration fees are paid and flights and hotels are booked.<\/p>\n<p>Do four things once you understand your clinic\u2019s financial position.<\/p>\n<h3><strong>1. Manage Cash Flow<\/strong><\/h3>\n<p>Have you ever had a month where cash poured in but you barely stayed afloat the following month? Perhaps that\u2019s because your bank balance was low and your accountant said you owed income taxes because you made so much profit. That\u2019s why cash-flow management is a big deal.<\/p>\n<p>You already know which months are busy or slower and when the business is ordinarily short on cash. Regularly reviewing your financial statements helps you recognize cash-flow patterns. By understanding the fluctuations, practice owners and managers can work to <a href=\"https:\/\/todaysveterinarybusiness.com\/pricing-practice-smarter-04424\/\">optimize cash flow<\/a>, such as by timing large purchases or adjusting payment terms with suppliers.<\/p>\n<h3><strong>2. Avoid Debt Drama<\/strong><\/h3>\n<p>You rely on financing whenever you need it. Whether it\u2019s a loan for new imagining equipment, an expansion project or a line of credit to tide you over during slow periods, debt can be a business lifesaver. But debt should be used wisely. If you review your balance sheet every month, you should see the loan totals falling gradually. By keeping an eye on your financial statements, you can see exactly how much you owe and ensure you\u2019re not taking on excessive debt.<\/p>\n<h3><strong>3. Weather Financial Storms<\/strong><\/h3>\n<p>Working in a veterinary practice isn\u2019t always rainbows and unicorns. Economic downturns, global pandemics, you name it \u2014 plenty of unfortunate events can disrupt your plans. However, if you monitor financial statements, you\u2019ll be better prepared when your most productive doctor goes on maternity leave or a competitor opens across the street. Whether you need to modify your clinic\u2019s hours, beef up your cash savings or create a new revenue stream, having a solid grasp on your finances gives you the flexibility to adapt and thrive, no matter what.<\/p>\n<h3><strong>4. Make Smarter Decisions<\/strong><\/h3>\n<p>Regularly reviewing financial statements provides the information you need to evaluate your business decisions. Is the new marketing campaign paying off? Yes? No? Maybe? For the answer, check the numbers. Are you thinking about adding a service or hiring more staff members? Your financial statements can help you weigh the pros and cons.<\/p>\n<p>Arm yourself with the information you need to steer your business in the right direction. Spending money whenever you want is easy but can lead to costly mistakes and missed opportunities.<\/p>\n<p>Being a successful practice owner or manager isn\u2019t just about treating animals. It\u2019s about running a business, too. If you want a healthy practice, you must monitor the financials and know their meaning. Managing cash flow, monitoring debt obligations, navigating economic uncertainty and making smarter financial decisions are indispensable. Reading financial statements isn\u2019t exciting, but they are the key to your clinic\u2019s profitability and valuation.<\/p>\n<hr \/>\n<h3><span style=\"color: #008000;\"><strong>OTHER TIPS<\/strong><\/span><\/h3>\n<p>Timely information is critical to a veterinary practice\u2019s financial health. Review all month-end statements within three weeks. If you keep the books in-house, examine them once someone reconciles the credit card statement. Looking at 3-month-old information doesn\u2019t help you make decisions about tomorrow. If your accountant can\u2019t meet deadlines, find someone who can.<\/p>\n<hr \/>\n<h3><span style=\"color: #008000;\"><strong>HOT OFF THE PRESSES<\/strong><\/span><\/h3>\n<p>Money Matters columnist Leslie A.
