About This Template
Analyze project finance deals with comprehensive debt coverage metrics. This Project Finance Coverage Dashboard Excel template calculates DSCR, LLCR, PLCR, equity IRR, and project NPV from your project assumptions. Ideal for infrastructure analysts, project finance bankers, and anyone evaluating debt capacity for long-term projects.
What You Can Calculate
This template provides a complete picture of project viability:
- Minimum & Average ADSCR — Annual debt service coverage ratio showing cash flow cushion above debt payments
- LLCR (Loan Life Cover Ratio) — Forward-looking metric comparing NPV of remaining cash flows to outstanding debt
- PLCR (Project Life Cover Ratio) — Total project cash flow capacity relative to initial debt
- Equity IRR — Return to equity investors after debt service
- Project NPV — Net present value at your specified discount rate
- Weighted Average Life — Average time debt remains outstanding
Required Inputs
Enter your project parameters in the light blue cells:
- Capital structure — Project cost and debt amount (equity calculated automatically)
- Debt terms — Interest rate and loan term in years
- Timeline — Total project life and construction period
- Operations — Annual revenue and operating costs
- Valuation — Discount rate for NPV and coverage calculations
Built-In Analysis Tools
Beyond the summary metrics, this template includes:
- Year-by-year cash flow schedule showing CFADS, debt service, ADSCR, debt outstanding, and LLCR for each period
- Sensitivity table showing how minimum ADSCR changes with interest rate and cash flow variations
- Hidden helper columns for IRR and NPV calculations (unhide to inspect)
Methodology
The template uses standard project finance conventions: level-payment debt amortization via Excel PMT/IPMT/PPMT functions, LLCR calculated using opening debt balance at each period start, and equity IRR via Excel IRR function.
Frequently Asked Questions
Yes. The Excel file includes a year-by-year schedule showing CFADS, interest, principal, debt service, ADSCR, debt outstanding, and LLCR for each period from construction through project end. You can extend or modify the schedule by unprotecting the sheet.
No. This template takes debt as a direct input and calculates the resulting coverage ratios. For debt sizing, use Goal Seek or Solver in Excel to find the debt amount that produces your target minimum DSCR.
The sensitivity table varies interest rate (+/-2%) and operating cash flow (+/-20%) to show how minimum ADSCR changes under different scenarios. You can customize these ranges by editing the helper cells.
