Internal Controls Due Diligence

Many companies are now requesting a controls review as part of the due diligence process when making an acquisition or entering into a joint venture. This is particularly relevant where there may be a less developed corporate governance / internal control framework. A “Controls Due Diligence” review is necessary to gain early warning of any key control weaknesses in the target companies.To structure M&A deals effectively, companies must understand the impact of acquisition accounting on the newly merged company’s earnings. A focus on more robust pre-acquisition valuation helps mitigate the risk of acquisition accounting estimates being significantly different from what is ultimately recorded at transaction close. 

This is more important than ever as a result of the new accounting standards increasing the potential for post-close earnings volatility. Companies will be better positioned to assess the accretive or dilutive impact of a transaction if an effective pre-acquisition valuation is performed during the due diligence phase.
