Exit Readiness, Continuously Measured

Negotiate your exit from evidence, not from a story

Exit value is lost less often on the asset than on the evidence. Dr. Wolfgang Faisst, Co-Founder and CEO of ValueWorks, wrote this whitepaper for Private Equity investors, M&A advisors and portfolio CFOs who want to be exit-ready long before the process starts.

• Why exit preparation breaks down when it is run as a project
• A data room that is always current: rebuilt on every close, with each KPI tagged as live, partial or assumed
• How the buyer's advisors and their AI tools query that data room directly instead of filing Q&A requests
• Measuring performance against an external peer group, and turning gaps into levers and tracked commitments
• Why the two halves are worth more together, and the case for starting early
