A practical checklist for owners preparing financial, legal, and operational documents before sharing them in a Deal Room.
Start with a document map: what can be shown in preview, what requires NDA, and what should only be shared after advisor or buyer approval.
Typical packs include company registration, ownership chart, financial summary, bank statements where appropriate, tax filings or summaries, major contracts, lease or property documents, and debt schedule.
Label documents clearly and date them. Outdated or incomplete files slow diligence and reduce buyer confidence.
If the opportunity involves funding rather than sale, add repayment logic, collateral notes, cash-flow summary, and existing liabilities.
Owners should review documents for sensitive personal data and remove anything not necessary for the current stage of discussion.
