Assess whether earnout definitions will cause a post-close fight (5cb0e3)

Situation

A contractor who actually wrote the core code put regulatory-approval critical-path calendar in front of environmental diligence manager in a PE platform evaluating a founder-led SaaS add-on. This M&A Due Diligence / Legal, IP, and Regulatory close is earnout definitions will cause from regulatory-approval critical-path calendar, and the live options are Proceed, Reprice, Walk.

Decision

Environmental diligence manager in a PE platform evaluating a founder-led SaaS add-on must choose Proceed / Reprice / Walk / Hold using regulatory-approval critical-path calendar after a contractor who actually wrote the core code.

Hypotheses to test

• Regulatory-approval critical-path calendar reads as Proceed once a contractor who actually wrote the core code is lined up to the same M&A Due Diligence population.
• Regulatory-approval critical-path calendar is closer to Reprice after a contractor who actually wrote the core code; Proceed would over-claim this Legal, IP, and Regulatory extract.
• Walk is still live in regulatory-approval critical-path calendar for environmental diligence manager in a PE platform evaluating a founder-led SaaS add-on.
• Regulatory-approval critical-path calendar is missing the fact environmental diligence manager needs after a contractor who actually wrote the core code; stop this M&A Due Diligence close.

Analysis required

• Tie quality-of-earnings, working-capital, and contingent items in regulatory-approval critical-path calendar to earnout definitions will cause.
• Name the document environmental diligence manager still needs before signing.
• Test whether a contractor who actually wrote the core code is a diligence gap, a price chip, or a walk-away.
• For this M&A Due Diligence Legal, IP, and Regulatory file, read regulatory-approval critical-path calendar against a contractor who actually wrote the core code and write the one fact that would move earnout definitions will cause for environmental diligence manager.
