Could your business survive a buyer’s diligence today?

Buyers don’t pay for your story — they pay for what survives diligence. This diagnostic shows where your value is leaking, and what to fix, before a buyer finds it and re-prices you.

  • Covers earnings quality, owner-independence, clean title, tax and litigation exposure, valuation anchoring, the buyer equity story, and data-room readiness.
  • The output is a readiness assessment with dimension scores and specific gaps — built to show what to fix before a buyer’s diligence finds it.

Which best describes your business?

We use this to frame your result. No valuation figure is shown — this is a readiness diagnostic.

How it works

What the score means.

The scorecard evaluates seven dimensions of exit readiness — financials and earnings quality, transferability and owner-independence, clean title, tax and litigation exposure, valuation anchoring, the buyer equity story, and data-room and process readiness. Each answer scores on a five-point scale from unprepared to fully ready, weighted to a single readiness percentage.

  • Overall readiness score with a clear readiness level
  • Seven-dimension breakdown highlighting where to focus
  • A deal-blocker check on ownership, tax, and litigation

Need a buyer-lens workplan?

Where the prerequisites are in place, the fixed sprint turns the evidence into a diagnostic, adjusted-EBITDA bridge, indicative range, teaser, gap map, and 90-day plan. Legal, tax, accounting, and document remediation stay outside the sprint.

Indicative only. This is an automated readiness assessment generated from the limited information you provide — not a valuation, an appraisal, a fairness opinion, or financial, legal, tax, or accounting advice, and not an offer or solicitation to buy or sell any business. It is no substitute for full due diligence and the specific facts of your business. Fiducia Adamantina accepts no liability for decisions taken in reliance on it.
