Sell Side
Due Diligence
Assistance
Our Mergers & Acquisitions Group is dedicated to helping clients clean up their Company's financial and accounting records for the sales process.
Sell side due diligence benefits a seller where there are growth challenges with the Company’s accounting and financial reporting or instances where pre-diligence accounting assistance is required prior to the buy-side deal team being able to perform a Quality of Earnings analysis.
Examples of projects where our sell-side due diligence preparation expertise and background can be effectively utilized to improve deal execution:
-
Cash to accrual basis of accounting and conversion is required
-
Preparation of consolidated financial statements in which there are multiple entities and no proper consolidation is prepared
-
Carve out of entities from one consolidated entity
-
Significant year-end adjustments that need to be pushed back on a monthly basis
-
Preparation of monthly financial statements if the company does not report monthly financials
-
A change in accounting method needs to be applied retrospectively
We will also prepare a Quality of Earnings workbook for you to share with potential buyers.
This is all handled as efficiently and effectively as possible.
