Carve-out separation lead owns earnings quality supports the inside a PE platform evaluating a founder-led SaaS add-on with related-party revenue that disappears at close as the only packet. A customer who just sent a non-renewal is what changed the clock for this M&A Due Diligence Separation and Integration file.
Decision
Carve-out separation lead in a PE platform evaluating a founder-led SaaS add-on must choose Proceed / Reprice / Walk / Hold using related-party revenue that disappears at close after a customer who just sent a non-renewal.
Hypotheses to test

- Provenance on related-party revenue that disappears at close after a customer who just sent a non-renewal is broken; do not pick Proceed or Reprice yet.
Analysis required
