Three reasons to choose SpreadSpace

Reuse the lender’s analysis

Save an analysis layout as a reusable template for later loans. Reapply the selected visuals and arrangement to the new loan's data while keeping loan-specific comments and source links with the original review. Build custom graphs, ratios and aggregate statistics from searchable financial lines. Choose the operands and coefficients, compare results across periods and inspect the source rows behind the calculation.

Follow the line and calculation

Click a source-backed figure to open the document at its highlighted region. Expand a derived figure into the contributing rows and follow those rows back to their sources. Derive operating, investing and financing cash flows from the return's income, Schedule L changes and supporting detail. Compare the calculated change in cash with the return's reported change and inspect the contributing rows.

Control policy and loan exceptions

Set institution-wide adjustment policies for tax-basis EBITDA, book-basis EBITDA, rental NOI and Schedule C. Apply full, partial or excluded treatment to supported expense concepts, reuse book-basis policy on company financials and make loan-specific exceptions.

Example: review a borrower with two guarantors

Example review using a fictional loan.

A business loan has two guarantors. One also supplies a K-1 from an outside business, so the reviewer needs to establish which income and distributions belong to each person.

Documents for the review

  • Borrower business return and K-1s
  • Each guarantor’s Form 1040
  • Outside business K-1 and supporting statement
  • Personal financial statements
  1. Establish the entities and years

    Review the borrower return and each guarantor separately. Check the tax year and ownership relationships before combining the information in the credit analysis.

  2. Trace the outside interest

    Open the K-1 issuer, recipient and supporting statement. Compare reported income and distributions with the guarantor’s return, keeping the business result separate from cash received by the person.

  3. Carry the reviewed analysis forward

    Review the source documents and analyst adjustments, then include the selected business and guarantor analysis in the memo. Revisit the relationship if another return or statement arrives.

The credit review identifies which business, person and period support each included figure.

Running SpreadSpace with nCino

SpreadSpace can be embedded in a lender’s loan workflow. For an nCino implementation, evaluate host authentication, document intake and the data handoff with your integration team; this comparison does not establish a preconfigured connector.

Questions lenders ask

Does nCino offer automated spreading?

Yes. nCino automated spreading supports tax returns and financial statements, with reconciliation and review of unclear fields. Compare the detailed guarantor workflow as well as the initial spread.

Does SpreadSpace replace nCino?

No. SpreadSpace is not a loan origination system. It handles financial spreading, analysis and credit memos within the lender’s existing workflow. Keep the loan record, pipeline and booking in nCino. SpreadSpace can embed the analysis workspace and make finalized financial values and memo PDFs available through the API; the integration must be configured for the lender’s environment.

How does SpreadSpace support K-1 review?

Keep K-1 issuers, recipients, income, distributions and capital detail linked to their supporting statements. Review outside interests with the guarantor's Form 1040 and follow the source behind the income or cash received.

Are business income and guarantor distributions the same?

No. Review the business result separately from the distributions received by the guarantor. The analyst needs to establish the basis for each included figure before combining them in a credit analysis.

Is an nCino integration preconfigured?

This comparison does not establish a preconfigured connector. Validate host authentication, document intake and data handoff with the integration team for the intended implementation.

What can the loan system retrieve after review?

Finalize the spread to save versioned financial attributes and ratios with separate tax-return, book-basis and company-reported figures. Retrieve configured DSCR, custom ratio results and analyst adjustments through the API, alongside a documents-only comparison and source document IDs. Request a PDF render of a saved credit memo through the API and retrieve the finished file for the loan record. Finalized memos retain a fixed PDF, with webhook events signaling when that document is ready.
