Financial Due Diligence &
Business Valuation

In mergers and acquisitions, we generally think of the buyer performing due diligence. However, it’s important for the company being acquired to do their due diligence too. Why? Because 46% of deals fail due to issues surfaced during the due diligence process. So, if the sell-side can perform due diligence on their own company first, issues can be identified and gaps filled prior to the buyer getting involved.

For the buyer, financial due diligence is the first step on the road to peace of mind during an M&A deal. A thorough understanding of the target's financial health and prognosis can mean the difference between a good investment and a very bad deal indeed.

During the financial due diligence process, the company’s historical and current financial performance is put under the microscope in order to establish future forecasts and identify any potential risks.
