Join our Webinar: Wednesday, Oct. 7 at 12PM EST
What do your financials really say about the value of your business? A Sell-Side Quality of Earnings (QoE) can help you understand your numbers before a buyer’s diligence team does.
Join Barrett Conway, Managing Director at Cetane Associates, as he moderates a conversation with Andrew Das and Paul Mackey, co-owners and partners of Fervent, covering:
* What a Quality of Earnings report is and why it matters
* Which add-backs hold up and which ones buyers may challenge
* How cash and tax basis financials can be restated during diligence
* Why the buy-side QoE can feel like a “witch hunt” and how sellers can get ahead of it
A live Q&A will follow the discussion, so bring your questions!

One of the things buyers value most? A strong management team that can keep the business running successfully without the owner.
Whether you’re planning to sell this year, in five years, or not at all, developing your team and delegating responsibility can make your business stronger, and make you less indispensable to its day-to-day operation.
As Griffin Sharp explains, the goal is to make yourself “superfluous” while giving buyers confidence that the business won’t fall apart when you step away.
Experience and expertise matter. But at the heart of every successful transaction is advocacy. Our VP Trey Brasseaux shares how Cetane’s mission is to guide sellers through one of the most important decisions of their lives and help them achieve the best possible outcome.
Your reputation lives in your customer relationships, your employees, your community involvement, and the way you do business every day. Finding the right buyer means finding someone who values those things as much as you do. Hear what Trey Brasseaux says about finding the right buyer when the time comes to sell.
