With the BEQ report you are optimally prepared for contract negotiations
The result of the BEQ is a final report, which, depending on the size of the company and the industry, is between 20 and 30 pages long. Unlike a full financial due diligence, the earnings quality assessment is limited in scope and is typically conducted during the due diligence phase. The report focuses on earnings power, profitability, and serious risk areas.
