Today is the day!
In just one hour, we’ll be live with July’s SuperCrowdHour webinar: Balance Sheets & Beyond: The Impact Investor’s Guide to Financials. You can watch it right here in the Superpowers for Good newsletter via the embedded livestream video player above.
Whether you’re a first-time impact investor or a seasoned pro who still gets a little overwhelmed by financials, this session is for you.
Join me, Devin Thorpe, founder of The Super Crowd, Inc., as I break down how to understand and evaluate financial statements as part of your due diligence process when investing via regulated investment crowdfunding (Reg CF).
This presentation is designed especially for people who feel like finance isn’t their native language. If you can shop online, you can understand financial statements. Seriously. It’s all about pattern recognition—not math.
We’ll keep things straightforward, practical, and impact-focused.
What You’ll Learn in Today’s Webinar
Here’s a sneak peek at what we’ll cover in today’s free session:
You Can Do This
We’ll start by demystifying financial statements and helping you gain confidence. If you’ve ever tracked your personal spending or browsed through online receipts, you already have the foundation to read a financial statement.
Income Statement Essentials
Learn how to read a profit & loss statement (P&L). We’ll cover key concepts like revenue, cost of goods sold, operating expenses, and net income—and show you what these numbers tell you about a business.
Balance Sheet Basics
We’ll show you how to evaluate a company’s financial position: what it owns (assets), what it owes (liabilities), and what remains (equity).
Cash Flow Insights
Profit isn’t everything—can the company actually pay its bills? We’ll walk through how to read and interpret a cash flow statement and assess sustainability.
Putting It All Together
You’ll leave with practical tips for using these three core statements to evaluate Reg CF opportunities. We’ll help you spot red flags, test a founder’s story against the numbers, and stay focused on what matters most.
