Built on Real Market Experience
We started teaching fundamental analysis because too many people were making decisions based on hype rather than actual company value. Our instructors spent years analyzing financial statements in Sydney before anyone asked us to teach it.

What We Actually Bring to Teaching
Our lead instructor, Callum Devereux, worked in equity research for twelve years before shifting to education. He got tired of seeing retail investors chase stocks without understanding balance sheets or cash flow statements. That frustration turned into our first course in late 2019.
We don't promise anyone will become a Warren Buffett overnight. What we do is break down financial ratios, valuation methods, and industry analysis into something you can actually use. Our approach comes from real analyst work, not textbook theory.
- Financial statement analysis and ratio interpretation
- Discounted cash flow and comparable company valuation
- Industry research and competitive positioning assessment
- Risk identification across different market sectors

Lead Instructor and Course Developer
Former equity analyst with focus on Australian financials and industrials. Began teaching fundamental analysis after noticing the gap between professional research methods and what retail investors were using.
How We Structure Learning
Our courses follow the same progression we use when training new analysts. You start with reading financial statements, then move into valuation, and finally learn to synthesize everything into investment ideas.
Financial Statement Foundations
You learn to read income statements, balance sheets, and cash flow statements without getting lost in accounting jargon. We cover what matters for investment decisions and what's just noise. Most students spend four to six weeks here.
Ratio Analysis and Industry Context
Raw numbers mean nothing without context. This section teaches you which ratios matter for different industries and how to spot red flags. We use actual ASX-listed companies as examples throughout.
Valuation Methods and Modeling
You build basic financial models and learn multiple valuation approaches. We show you when each method works best and when to be skeptical of the results. This is where things start clicking together.
Complete Company Analysis
The final projects have you analyze real companies from start to finish. You present your findings like you would in an institutional setting. Some students use these projects when applying for analyst positions.
What Drives Our Teaching Philosophy
We care more about students understanding the limitations of fundamental analysis than pretending it's a perfect system. Markets are messy, and the best analysts know when their models might be wrong.
Real Methods Over Theory
Everything we teach comes from actual research work. You learn the shortcuts professionals use and the mistakes to avoid. We skip the academic stuff that doesn't help with real investment decisions.
Honest About Uncertainty
We tell students when analysis becomes guesswork. Valuation involves assumptions that can be completely wrong, and we don't hide that. Being honest about limits matters more than pretending we have all the answers.
Practical Application Focus
Our next courses start in September 2025 and run for sixteen weeks. Students work through the same analysis process we use professionally, with feedback on their approach rather than just right or wrong answers.
Realistic Skill Development
You won't become an expert analyst in a few months. But you will understand how to read a 10-K, build a comparable company analysis, and know when you're out of your depth. That's more useful than false confidence.
