Want To Maximize Your Exit Multiple?

Minimize enterprise risks that could weigh on an otherwise full multiple.

Here are 8 enterprise risks that are sure to eat away at your exit multiple:

🔴 Customer concentration (can create revenue risk)
🔴 Market risk (can also create revenue risk)
🔴 Legal, regulatory, and compliance risk
🔴 Cyber risk (can create legal, reputational, and business continuity risk)
🔴 Shoddy systems (can create operational risk)
🔴 Business complexity (can create execution risk)
🔴 Complex tax structures (can create financial risk)
🔴 Single points of failure (can create key person risk)

Identify the enterprise risks in your biz early in the hold period, and ask yourself:

“What needs to happen between now and exit to de-risk the business and ensure these things don’t sabotage an attractive, value-maximizing exit?”

Now is not the time to stick your head in the sand or look at your business through rose-colored glasses.

Be critical of your business today and take action on the risks and gaps. You’ll be rewarded generously at exit.
