<p>A computer-implemented method for transforming company performance data thereby to provide cash flow assessment data, the method including: maintaining access to a repository of data for a plurality of shares, wherein the data includes, for each share, company performance data for the company in respect of which the share is issued; receiving, from a client, a cash flow assessment request for a given one of the shares; obtaining from the repository, for the user-selected share, values for a set of data fields associated with the given one of the shares, wherein values include, for one or more historical periods, a profit quantifier, a paid dividend quantifier, and one or more cash flow quantifiers; determining a funding gap/surplus quantifier for each historical period wherein each funding gap quantifier is derived from a calculation that accepts inputs including the paid dividends quantifier and one or more of the cash flow quantifiers; defining data indicative of a chart to be displayed by the client, wherein the chart displays, for each historical period, overlaid on common axes, the profit quantifier, the paid dividends quantifier, one or more of the cash flow quantifiers, and the funding gap quantifier; and providing the defined data to the client thereby to allow generation of the chart.
