FinPod: Subscription Economics: Mastering LTV, Churn, and Recurring RevenueThe Subscription Economy has fundamentally reshaped corporate finance, moving the focus from one-time sales to long-term customer relationships. For professionals in FP&A, IR, and Corporate Strategy, understanding this shift is critical for forecasting and valuation.In this episode of Corporate Finance Explained on FinPod, we break down the unique financial mechanics of recurring revenue, examine key metrics, and explore how the most successful companies manage this model.The Core Shift: Value & Metrics: The subscription model swaps short-term cash hits for long-term predictability, which investors reward with higher valuation multiples.The Critical Ratio (LTV:CAC): We break down the relationship between Customer Lifetime Value (LTV) and Customer Acquisition Cost (CAC). Learn why the benchmark is LTV ≥ 3x CAC and the pitfalls of inflating LTV with non-recurring revenue.The Accounting Challenge: We explain revenue recognition (ASC 606/IFRS 15) and the concept of Deferred Revenue. Cash is received upfront, but revenue is recognized over time, which can make financial statements appear less profitable during high-growth periods.The Cautionary Tale: Analysis of MoviePass reveals the danger of fundamentally broken unit economics, where the cost to serve the customer (CoGS) was higher than the subscription fee, accelerating the path to bankruptcy.Strategic Playbooks & Success Stories: Successful companies master the mechanics of growth and retention, managing complex P&Ls and investor expectations:The Content Giant (Netflix): The challenge of balancing liquidity and leverage while managing billions in content amortization to drive retention and reduce churn (even a half-percent increase means millions in lost ARR).The SaaS Pioneer (Salesforce): Leveraging deferred revenue as an interest-free loan and obsessively tracking Net Revenue Retention (NRR), measuring if existing customers increase their spending over time.The Strategic Pivot (Adobe): The painful but successful transition from a lumpy license model to the predictable Creative Cloud subscription, which required transparent communication to manage market expectations.The Hybrid Model (Peloton, Amazon Prime): Understanding that the high-cost hardware sale is primarily a customer acquisition channel for the much more valuable, low-cost recurring content stream.The Modern Finance Mandate: Mastering the subscription model requires blending traditional corporate rigor with data science:Cohort Analysis: Shifting forecasting models to track groups of customers based on sign-up time, revealing granular insights into renewal rates, upgrades, and churn patterns.Proactive Scenario Modeling: Forward-looking planning (FP&A) must run rigorous sensitivity analyses, modeling the impact if CAC jumps 15% or if churn spikes, to prepare leadership for potential volatility.Communication is Strategy: Clearly articulating metrics like NRR and the path for LTV expansion to maintain premium public market valuations.

Host Ed Crooks talks to Jason Liu, Chief Executive of Wood Mackenzie and co-author (with Chief Analyst Simon Flowers) of a new book, Connected, about the fast-changing world of energy. They are also joined by Sunaina Ocalan, formerly Senior Director for Corporate Strategy & Climate at the oil and gas company Hess, now Senior Analyst and Co-Head for Americas Energy & Transition at Bernstein Research. Together, they explore how energy leaders can plan, invest and operate operate in a world where different sectors, technologies and geographies are interconnected in more powerful and complex ways than ever before.They talk about the language of “the energy transition”, and whether it can lead to misconceptions. Global demand for hydrocarbons is still growing, and they will continue to play a critical role in our energy system for decades to come, even as new supply from renewables and other low-carbon sources surges higher. A wider appreciation of that reality is driving a shift from siloed thinking about individual sectors to integrated solutions. For example, companies are increasingly looking at pairing solar and storage with gas generation to meet demand from data centers for reliable low-carbon power.Sunaina takes us inside the the thinking of energy leaders as they assess strategies and investment decisions. She sets out a practical approach to scenario analysis, with “exit ramps” so companies can pivot as facts change. The aim isn't to predict one future, but to be ready for a range of possible outcomes. That means balancing the advantages and disadvantages of a wide range of technologies, and taking a strategic view through short-term fluctuations as far as possible. Effective decision-making is impossible without reliable data. Jason warns about three traps: using too little real data, leaning on synthetic/modelled data without ground truth, and poor integration across different sectors. Data collection technology is advancing rapidly, and with sensors, satellites and market intelligence, decision-makers can increasingly see what's really happening with precision and granular detail, often in real time.Then there's AI. Like other industries, the world of energy is being transformed by the tools that have become available over the past few years. Scenario runs have been cut from months to minutes, with hundreds of models combined to give a comprehensive coherent picture. AI tools can even assess the best models to use on particular data sets: a capability Jason calls hyper-modelling. And still there is a vital role for human intelligence and judgement, to find and interpret the information that the AI tools miss. The challenges in the energy sector today are vast. It is a cliche to say that uncertainty is higher than ever, but today it genuinely seems true. The pace of innovation in AI is changing the world in ways that have never been seen before. But the opportunity is vast, too. The energy industry will need $75 trillion or more in investment over the next 25 years, to meet ever-growing demand while reducing the impact on the environment. The businesses that succeed in making the most of this opportunity will be the ones that get three things right: the right data, the right AI capabilities, and the right people, all brought together to deliver actionable insights.

In this special dual-release edition of The Design Brief and The Management Brief, Josh Howell, LEI President, is joined by LEI veterans Jim Morgan, Senior Advisor, and Mark Reich, Senior Coach and Chief Engineer Strategy. These two lean heavyweights discuss two fundamental lean processes that are absolutely critical to transform and grow an enterprise: lean product and process development (LPPD) and hoshin kanri.  Jim is a former Ford Global Engineering Director and Rivian Chief Operating Officer. He co-authored The Toyota Product Development System and Designing the Future, both of which elements of LPPD, a system for developing new products and services and their required value streams. Jim co-authored The Toyota Product Development System and Designing the Future, both of which explore elements of LPPD, a system for developing new products and services and the processes needed to produce and deliver them. LPPD surfaces and resolves issues across the product-development value stream in order to minimize time- and profit-consuming wastes and rework.  Mark, a 23-year veteran of Toyota, including work in Corporate Strategy at the automaker, recently authored Managing on Purpose, which explores hoshin kanri and how it aligns enterprises at every level — C-suite through the frontline — via a shared common purpose, problem solving, and continuous learning. Since 2011 when he joined LEI, Mark has successfully helped many executives apply hoshin kanri and transform their companies in a variety of business sectors.   For executives not yet familiar with LPPD and hoshin kanri — especially those leading and growing enterprises — this discussion should be eye-opening. Jim and Mark reveal these two processes as not operations-only tools but game-changing methods for corporate leaders to transform their organizations. They describe the importance of these powerful processes to overall business success, their successes at Toyota and other lean organizations, and how the processes can significantly help any business, big or small.  Stay connected to the latest thinking in lean management.

Video Version About the Podcast In this episode of State of Readiness, host Joseph Paris speaks with Alan Michaels, founder of the Industry Knowledge Graph, a strategic planning tool built on Michael Porter's competitive strategy framework. The discussion traces Alan's multi-decade journey to develop a globally comprehensive, highly granular industry taxonomy and its transformation into a usable, dynamic digital platform. Alan recalls the pivotal moment in 1986 when, while working in IT at Manufacturers Hanover Bank, he was introduced to Porter's Competitive Advantage. The structured, recipe-like nature of Porter's methodology resonated deeply with him, prompting a career pivot toward corporate strategy. Over time, Alan held various strategic roles, including at IBM and in insurance, but ultimately dedicated himself full-time to his ambitious goal: to map the entire global economy by industry, using Porter's definitions of competitive structure and market forces. The result, launched in April 2024, is the Industry Knowledge Graph, a platform that classifies the global economy into over 24,000 distinct industries, based on competitive commonalities such as products, buyers, substitutes, and vendors. This granularity far exceeds traditional classifications like NAICS codes. For instance, while NAICS might group all jet aircraft in one industry, Alan's system separates fighter jets, commercial jets, and blimps into unique segments. Even within food, categories like potato chips, pretzels, and popcorn are treated as different industries based on buyer behavior and competitive factors. The platform supports top-down and bottom-up analysis. A user can examine which industries a company like PepsiCo operates in (156 in total), or conversely, explore a given industry like potato chips and see the top competitors, value chains, channels, and influencing trends. Users can also compare companies by overlapping and unique industry participation—offering a precise view ideal for M&A analysis, competitive benchmarking, strategic expansion, or private equity targeting. Alan emphasizes that his system empowers corporate planners, marketers, and strategists to cut research time dramatically. What previously took months—such as comparing competitors by line of business—can now be done in seconds. A standardized set of industry data fields, inspired by Porter's methodology, makes this possible. Each industry entry includes value chains, buyer segments, substitute threats, supplier dependencies, market trends, and more. To bring this vision to life digitally, Alan partnered with Semantic Arts, a leader in semantic technology and the data-centric revolution. Together, they formed Industry Knowledge Graph LLC, combining Alan's industry content with a modern knowledge graph platform. The system launched with an initial demo and subscription access, and plans are underway to expand its data, integrate public classification codes (e.g., NAICS, UN), and invite partnerships to enrich its content. Alan concludes by emphasizing that the Industry Knowledge Graph offers a strategic lens to view the economy—one grounded in Porter's logic, built with real-world granularity, and powerful enough to revolutionize strategic planning across industries. About Alan Michaels As the Director of Industry Research at Industry Knowledge Graph LLC, I am solely focused on enhancing our industry model of the global economy, which leverages the IBB model of the global economy (covering 25,000 industries) developed by Industry Building Blocks LLC. For the past 24 years, I have been building and maintaining the best available industry segmentation of the global economy by line of business, using Michael E. Porter's five forces industry analysis methodology. My business expertise is in corporate planning, business unit planning, industry analysis, new business development, and aligning and coordinating business and IT and other activities to make the whole greater than the sum of the parts. In 1994, I self-published (a Porter-inspired step-by-step corporate planning workbook) "Structured Strategic Planning" while teaching at Pace University Graduate School. In short, since reading Porter's book "Competitive Advantage" in 1986 I have been passionate about leveraging his five-forces industry framework to provide high-quality, granular, and comprehensive industry data to raise the level of strategic thinking.

Srividya Jandhyala, professor of management at ESSEC Business School and author of The Great Disruption, offers a clear framework for how geopolitics is reshaping corporate strategy. Her central thesis is direct: “The fundamental idea, ‘Where are you from?'—the nationality of the company—is the defining feature of the type of reactions you face from all stakeholders, not just governments, but also customers, suppliers, and clients”.   She explains why geopolitics now sits inside business decisions rather than adjacent to them. Corporate choices create externalities that trigger responses from states and nonmarket actors. For example, decisions around semiconductors illustrate how commercial moves collide with concerns about national security and dependence in key markets. The implication is that access, permissions, and standards increasingly compete with price and product as decisive variables.   Jandhyala distills four structural foundations every multinational should monitor: Market access — Where tariffs, export controls, or rivalries may close doors. Level playing field — Corporate nationality can tilt advantage or disadvantage against competitors. Investment security — Whether assets, workforce, and property rights will be safe and returns can be repatriated. Institutional alignment — The “USB vs. power plug” analogy: some systems work seamlessly, while others clash. Geopolitics is increasingly a contest of standards   Practical Takeaways Build a repeatable discipline. Go beyond headline news by scanning developments, personalizing them to the firm's footprint, planning responses, and pivoting as conditions change. Map exposure by corporate nationality. Quantify where origin shapes market permissions, customer sentiment, or partner constraints. Treat corporate diplomacy as a core capability. Relationship-building with governments and stakeholders now consumes significant CEO time, creating both opportunities and trade-offs. For CEOs: View geopolitical flux as a field for advantage, not just risk. “Be imaginative about how you can exploit your corporate nationality, your position in the value chain, and your global market presence.” For middle managers: Expect new roles and metrics; government engagement, redundancy planning, and cross-functional information brokering are becoming central. Use the right cognitive frame. Executives must decide explicitly whether and where geopolitics deserves share of mind, recognizing that equally astute observers may reach different conclusions. Jandhyala's counsel is rigorous but pragmatic: geopolitics is now part of the operating environment. Companies that treat it as noise will miss risks and opportunities. Those that build structural awareness and corporate diplomacy into strategy will be better positioned to compete when “permissions, politics, and standards” define the terms of play.

Welcome to Podbites - short, sharp episodes designed to give you digestible insights on industrial decarbonisation. In this episode, Tim Atkinson (Director, Sales & Trading at CFP Energy) joins guest host Melissa Chew (VP, Product at Decarb Connect) to explore why UK industrials must act now to build a resilient carbon strategy. Recorded live at Decarb Connect UK in Manchester in March, the conversation unpacks the changes underway in carbon markets and why the firefighting of the 2022 energy crisis has shifted into an era of forward-looking strategy. What You'll HearThe paradigm shift: With the power sector slashing emissions by 74% in just a decade, industry is now in the spotlight to deliver the next wave of reductions.The rising cost of delay: Waiting until 2030 could see carbon allowance costs double - or even triple.The opportunity window: Crisis mode is over. Companies finally have space to develop long-term carbon and energy plans - but only if they move before the next market shock.The need to plan ahead: Forward hedging carbon costs when prices are favorable is becoming essential.The technology gap: Solutions like hydrogen and carbon capture are still developing, raising questions about whether carbon prices will rise high enough to justify investment. Please note: this podcast was recorded at Decarb Connect UK in March 2025* Show links: -          Connect with Tim Atkinson and the team at CFP Energy-          Follow Melissa Chew on LinkedIn and find how to get involved with the membership and work of Decarb Connect-          Join Mel and a network of hardtech investors and series B+ tech disruptors at Decarb TechInvest in Boston (September 2025) Want to learn more about Decarb Connect? We provide insights and introductions that derisk decision-making and support industrial leaders in deploying decarbonization and low carbon product strategy.
