Our Story in Numbers

We've spent over a decade turning financial chaos into clear business insights. Here's how we became the team that actually makes sense of your statements.

Born from Frustration

Back in 2013, I was consulting for a Sheffield manufacturing company that couldn't figure out why their profits kept shrinking despite growing sales. Their accountant handed me a stack of statements that looked like they'd been assembled by someone who'd never run a business.

That's when it hit me — most financial analysis focuses on compliance instead of actually helping business owners make decisions. So we built virolexandio around a simple idea: your financial statements should tell you exactly what's happening in your business, not just satisfy the taxman.

Fast forward to 2025, and we've helped over 400 UK businesses decode their financials and spot opportunities they never knew existed. Not by making things more complicated, but by making them clearer.

What We Actually Do

Statement Deep Dives

We dissect your profit & loss, balance sheet, and cash flow to find the stories hiding in the numbers. Think of us as financial detectives who actually explain what we find.

Trend Spotting

Past performance matters, but future patterns matter more. We identify early warning signs and growth opportunities before they become obvious.

Decision Support

Every analysis comes with clear recommendations. Should you hire that new salesperson? Expand inventory? We help you decide with confidence.

Meet Thorsten Blackwell

I started my career at a Big Four accounting firm, where I learned that impressive presentations often hide simple truths. After eight years of watching brilliant business owners struggle with their own financial data, I decided there had to be a better way.

My approach is straightforward: I translate your numbers into plain English and focus on what actually matters for your business decisions. No jargon, no unnecessary complexity — just clear insights you can act on immediately.

When I'm not buried in spreadsheets, you'll find me cycling around the Peak District or attempting to perfect my sourdough technique. Both activities have taught me patience — a skill that's surprisingly useful when untangling complicated financial statements.

How We Work Together

Initial Discovery

We start by understanding your business model and what questions you're trying to answer. This isn't just about collecting statements — it's about learning how your business actually operates.

Data Analysis

We dive deep into your financials, looking for patterns, anomalies, and opportunities. This is where years of experience make the difference — we know what to look for and where to find it.

Clear Reporting

You get a straightforward analysis that explains what's happening in your business and why. No financial jargon — just clear insights that help you make better decisions.

Ongoing Support

Business changes quickly. We provide regular check-ins and analysis updates to help you stay on top of trends and spot new opportunities as they emerge.

Why Financial Analysis Matters More Than Ever

In 2025, businesses face more complexity than ever. Supply chain disruptions, changing customer behaviors, new regulations — the list goes on. Your financial statements capture all of this activity, but only if you know how to read them properly.

Most business owners look at their statements once a month, check if they're profitable, and move on. But there's so much more information waiting to be discovered. The early warning signs of cash flow problems. The hidden costs eating into margins. The seasonal patterns that could help you plan better inventory levels.

That's where we come in. We help you turn your financial data into a competitive advantage.
