Frequently Asked Questions (FAQs)
Financial due diligence plays a crucial role in various business transactions, such as acquisitions, disposals, or refinancing initiatives. Its primary purpose is to gain insights into the financial position and performance of a business, enabling stakeholders to assess the associated risks. By conducting financial due diligence, organizations can critically evaluate the assumptions underlying a business valuation presented in an offer letter or term sheet.
The main objective of financial due diligence is to identify and evaluate potential risks within a transaction and explore strategies to manage, mitigate, or avoid those risks. This process involves a thorough investigation and analysis of the business, including a comprehensive review of its profit and loss account, balance sheet, and cash flows. In some cases, financial due diligence may also involve an assessment of financial projections to gain a deeper understanding of future prospects.
Furthermore, the scope of work typically encompasses considerations related to the offer letter and completion mechanics. This may involve examining factors such as normalised working capital and pricing adjustments, often achieved through debt definitions. By conducting a comprehensive financial due diligence process, organizations can make informed decisions and negotiate transaction terms with a clearer understanding of the financial aspects involved.
Performing due diligence is a crucial step in risk mitigation for transactions. To ensure a comprehensive understanding of the transaction details, parties involved often conduct a financial due diligence report. The specific scope of the due diligence is determined by the nature of the deal, but it typically includes:
- In-depth analysis of historical performance, working capital, cash flows, and assets and liabilities.
- Assessment of the quality of earnings underlying the transaction.
- Identification of pricing considerations and factors that may impact valuation.
- Analysis of the tax position of the business involved.
In certain circumstances and jurisdictions, there may also be a review of management’s forecasts, including an evaluation of the business’s working capital requirements.
Our reports strive to provide a concise summary of key findings and issues identified during the due diligence process. We also offer insights into associated risks and implications for the transaction, including integration and post-deal considerations. By conducting thorough financial due diligence, stakeholders can make informed decisions and address potential risks effectively.
