A Due Diligence Checklist© for Buyers and Sellers
For Buyers: Due diligence is the process through which a potential buyer evaluates a target company and its assets for an acquisition. Every buyer wants to know what obligations they are assuming. Buyers should examine the target company’s contingent liabilities, problematic contracts, litigation risks, intellectual property issues, and more.
For Sellers: By planning due diligence activities and anticipating the related issues that may arise, a business owner will be better prepared to complete the sale or transfer of the company.
We believe that the list below represents one of the most comprehensive in the industry. Many of the activities and issues apply to both sides of the transaction. There are no surprises if both the buyer and seller have similar expectations.

The report ranks the overall preparedness of a company for transition and provides a breakdown of the four major categories of readiness; Finance, Planning, Profit/Revenue, and Operations. If you are just starting to think about exit planning or if you just want to know where you and your company stand, this is your first step.
