OPERATING VALUE
Operating businesses. Different questions.
A service business, an industrial company and a hotel need different evidence. Begin with the transaction perimeter, the operating economics and the people required to review them.
EXIT READINESS REVIEW
Seven deliverables. A basis for a decision.
A focused diagnostic engagement to establish what is ready, what needs attention and what evidence is missing before pursuing a transaction.
10 business days after receipt of the agreed information set. Scope and fee are confirmed in the engagement letter.
- Analysis of three years of available financial data.
- An earnings bridge identifying factors that affect perceived profitability.
- A map of the company’s value drivers.
- A register of risks, inconsistencies and missing evidence.
- A data-room preparation checklist.
- Profiles of the most plausible buyer or investor types.
- A 90-day action plan: prepare, repair or pause.
The Review is a preliminary readiness assessment, not a formal valuation, audit or full due diligence exercise. It does not guarantee a price, an offer, a buyer or completion of a transaction.
