  • A review of the last three years’ financial statements.
  • A review of the most up-to-date management accounts.
  • A review of forecast results.
  • A detailed review of the trade and non-trade assets on the balance sheet to include adjustments to be made to reflect assets at market value.

  • Presentation, review and discussion of the results with the client.
  • Issue of the draft report and valuation.
