LCG 08 The Fundable Company Workbook (English Edition)

What will a new owner expect to see in the first year - and can you show it today?

When new capital comes in, expectations change overnight. The companies that are prepared get better terms. Can your board answer these five?

1. What will an investor or lender expect to see in the first 12 months?

The workbook describes the expectations new capital typically has of leadership, reporting and the plan - so you meet them before they are raised.

2. Can we document the value - or only talk about it?

The workbook helps you see the company the way an investor sees it, and find the gaps that pull the value down.

3. Do we have a leadership team and a board a new owner would keep?

The workbook gives you the governance and leadership questions investors ask in due diligence.

4. What happens if our covenants or financing change?

The workbook shows how the board prepares for a refinancing before the bank calls.

5. Have we turned down an offer without knowing why?

A rejected or never-revisited acquisition offer is also a decision. The workbook helps the board make it deliberately.

What you get: A review of the company through an investor's eyes, governance and leadership questions, cases and board questions. Available in English and Danish.

It is for owner-leaders, boards and executive teams considering raising capital or selling, or who have just got a new owner.

Why not just ask ChatGPT? ChatGPT can explain a due diligence. The workbook helps you prepare your own - before the investor does it for you.
