Do I need a Quality of Earnings?

Yes, a Quality of Earnings (QoE) report is highly recommended during the sale process. This detailed analysis goes beyond the basic financial statements to provide a more in-depth look at the company's financial health, sustainability of earnings, and the underlying factors driving revenue and expenses. It identifies one-time items, non-operational income, and expenses, providing a clearer picture of the company's operational performance. A QoE report is invaluable for both sellers and buyers, as it builds credibility and can help streamline the due diligence process, potentially leading to a smoother transaction and reinforcing your value.
