Management has enough money to get their company through August 2010, but needs more capital thereafter. An HBS alumnus is interested in investing in the company. Management needs to revisit their financial assumptions, decide on an incentive structure for their proposed network of local water vendors, and put together a pro-forma income statement, cashflow statement, and balance sheet in anticipation of their meeting with the investor.
