One of the critical aspects of the whole process is the financial part of the Due Diligence study. It consists in thorough analysis and assessment of ledgers to precisely and reliably present the current company situation and make it easier for the investors to understand the character of the company's operation in financial and operational terms. The specialists conducting the process look into the company's balance sheet and income as well as the cash flow statement. A detailed review of these financial documents makes it possible, i.e., to fully understand the business entity's capital structure and the character of its finance sources, which may result in the easier identification of areas for future restructuring or streamlining. Using the Ai Auditor, you can gain insight on 100% of the transactions. We look at everyone in 27 different ways.
The Financial Due Diligence carried out based on the analysis of information made available also aims to determine both past and future, expected results and the company's financial condition, as well as to assess its forecasts and plans, identifying its main future growth factors. Furthermore, the analysis comprises the price-setting methodology and the structure of future revenues and expenditures. A small investment in our technology could save you a significant amount on the purchase price.
Ultimately, the goal of the whole process of the financial part of Due Diligence is to normalize and determine the company's results so that the possibility of one-off, extraordinary events are eliminated. It is particularly crucial given the following evaluation of the enterprise, as such activities may considerably impact its outcome. Owing to the varied methods of assessment (e.g. the multiplies method or the discounted cash flow method) used to establish the investment's value, the normalization process involves any costs impacting the operational outcome (EBITDA), depreciation, the volume of working capital, the cash flow statement, as well as other key factors.
The Due Diligence process, due to its inherent comprehensiveness and labour intensity, often turns out to be a difficult and time-consuming one - not only for the entity conducting it but also the company is the object of the study. It is a process whose importance cannot be underestimated. The Due Diligence analysis is the best way to identify possible threats and opportunities for the potential transaction even before it is finalized, which as a result often makes it possible to avoid the wrong decisions in the area of acquisition and consolidation of companies.
Financial due diligence is a vital element of any deal. Our business risk assessment service provides information to strengthen an investment banker’s teaser about the portfolio company's performance and outlook to all potential buyers. It gives the investment banker with confidence that anomalies in financial information are known and addressed before they become deal breakers.
Our financial risk assessment service does a deeper dive than has ever been possible.
During your financial due diligence process, you will find risks within the company, including capital structure, working capital and CapEx forecasts. Additionally, your due diligence reviews the company's business plan, projections and financial ratios. All of these depend on reliable and correct reporting of financial information.
EBIT and EBITDA are often normalized during financial due diligence, by adjusting reported numbers for unusual events such as the divestiture of a subsidiary. The investment bank likely used the fixed amount for the valuation. These adjustments rely on the correct financial information in the first place.
Hiring financial advisers to conduct financial, legal and tax due diligence is expensive to potential buyers. Knowing that the financial books are in good shape before you start the process and being able to point financial advisers to the anomalies in the books before they enter the data room, is a huge time-saver.
