What buyers test

Where diligence teams spend their time

Statements and accrual discipline

Three years of reviewed or audit-ready financials, clean accrual accounting, monthly reconciliations and no cutoff surprises.

Documented add-backs

An add-back schedule maintained now, documented and defensible in a quality of earnings review, instead of reconstructed under pressure.

Revenue quality and concentration

Recurring vs. one-time revenue, retention, margin by line and customer concentration, reported the way a buyer will calculate them.

Signs to start now

  • You may sell, raise or acquire in the next one to three years.
  • Your books are cash-basis, or accrual in name only.
  • One customer is 15% or more of revenue.
  • Add-backs are known informally, not kept in a schedule.

Questions

How early should we start preparing?

Earlier than most owners expect. Most founder-led companies score 4 to 6 out of 10 on exit readiness, and getting from 6 to 9 is usually about 24 months of deliberate work.

What is a quality of earnings review?

An independent review, commissioned by a buyer or by the seller, of whether reported earnings are real and repeatable: revenue recognition, add-backs, working capital and one-time items.
