The Importance of a Quality of Earnings Report During Due Diligence

Entering into a business transaction requires full disclosure, and a Quality of Earnings Report provides the perfect opportunity to bring everything to light.

 

Matthew Allison is a Partner at Citrin Cooperman’s Tax Practice, and he joins us to talk about the importance of a Quality of Earnings Report in due diligence during a business sale transaction. We kick off our conversation by defining what a Quality of Earnings Report is and how its directive differs on the buy- and sell-side.

 

Diving into the details, we consider how a thorough consideration of information improves relationships and how sellers can embrace a realistic mindset during the research period. Next, we discuss the impact of Quality of Earnings on sales price and how pre-exposure can increase buyer comfort level when entering into a transaction. Lastly, we get into the importance of bringing everything to light during the reporting period and presenting it with transparency.
