Holidays Inc.

After working in the industry for 6 years I founded a travel concierge business at the age of 23, and bootstrapped it to 1.3MM EUR in revenues, 13 employees and 2 offices over the course of 4 years. We partnered with Thomas Cook in Germany to gain exclusive access to the full travel offering of more than 70 of the world’s largest 70 wholesale operators including Thomas Cook, Neckerman, TUI, ITS, DERtour, Schauinsland or ITS. 

Our strategy focused on product leadership, customer service, and innovation, which helped to differentiate us in the local market and afforded us record high retention rates and customer referrals.

I used to think finance wasn’t rocket science — until I saw how many CEOs and companies get crushed by it.

Great products with solid margins - consistently struggling to engineer growth with proactive cash flow planning and smart capital allocation.

That’s when I realized: it’s not just about numbers — it’s about knowing what they mean, how to plan around them, and how to make decisions that actually build value.

That’s what I teach. And that’s what my company Financiario delivers.

Most CEOs are building strategy on Adjusted EBITDA.

But Operating Cash Flow is the number that tells the truth.

➡️ Learn to analyze an income statement in 10 steps and never miss another red flag again: https://bit.ly/3QsGLyV

Let’s talk about the most abused metric in finance:
Adjusted EBITDA.

On paper and in quarterly calls it looks impressive.

↳ Big number
↳ Solid growth story
↳ Great for pitch decks

But dig deeper, and it’s often nothing more than a sanitized version of the truth.

📌 Save your spot for the upcoming executive masterclasses covering EBITDA, Valuation and our exclusive CEO Panel: 

➡️ https://bit.ly/4nHxemo
➡️ https://bit.ly/4nZwau8
➡️ https://bit.ly/4oCA2RK

Here’s what happens when the heat of real business pressure kicks in:

↳ Adjusted EBITDA: a full pan of spinach — puffed up with “one-time” add-backs

↳ EBITDA: a few wilted leaves left — still disconnected from actual cash

↳ Net income: the bare truth — what’s left after everyone else takes their share

↳ Operating cash flow: the real litmus test — what the business actually generates to reinvest, repay, and survive

Most CEOs are obsessed with EBITDA.
But it’s operating cash flow that fuels today and builds tomorrow.

Smart CEOs understand this:

✓ Adjusted EBITDA is easy to manipulate — operating cash flow isn’t
✓ EBITDA ignores working capital swings — OCF exposes them
✓ Operating cash flow shows what’s sustainable — not presentable

Because at the end of the day, only one number fuels:

Payroll
Debt repayment
Growth reinvestment
Dividend distribution
Breathing room in downturns

That number is Operating Cash Flow.

If you’re not tracking it religiously, and planning it carefully - you're in for some seriosu financial trouble.

This isn’t about becoming a CFO.

It’s about being a CEO who actually understands how value is created — and destroyed.

So here’s the question:

Are you managing by numbers that survive heat?
Or by metrics that evaporate when reality sets in?
