Earn-Out Monitoring

Every agreement

Each earn-out on the deal, with the company it measures and the document behind it.

The right metric

Revenue, gross profit or EBITDA, as the agreement defines it.

Measurement periods

Annual, semiannual, quarterly or cumulative, each with its end date.

Adjustments

Add-backs, carve-outs and pro forma adjustments, itemized each period.

Draft statements

A draft earn-out statement for the period, ready to review before it goes to the seller.

Objection deadlines

The dispute window, tracked so it never lapses.

Payments

When each payout is due and what it's likely to be on current numbers.

Across the portfolio

Next period end, next objection deadline and next payment, for every deal.
