Ninety seconds on one sample deal

Where each number came from, a correction from an amended return, the add-backs that hold up, and what that does to debt coverage.

What the report contains

The checks a lender will run, done before you commit

P&L vs tax return

Matched year by year. Gaps over 10% are flagged, and partial or fiscal years are kept apart, never averaged in.

Every number sourced

Each figure links to its document, page and line, so you can show your lender exactly where it came from.

Add-backs judged

Depreciation, owner pay, one-time costs: each one with its support, and only documented ones count toward SDE.

SBA financing check

Cash at closing, monthly payments, debt coverage and break-even SDE across two or three financing structures.

Questions for the seller

Ten to fifteen diligence questions tied to what the numbers show, ready to send before an LOI.

How it works

From documents to a decision in 48 hours

  1. Send the documents

    The CIM, up to three years of P&Ls and tax returns, and your planned down payment and loan terms.

  2. We reconcile them

    Each figure is extracted, checked against its page, and compared across the P&Ls and returns.

  3. You get the report

    A printable report with the SDE you can defend, financing scenarios, risks and seller questions.

Questions

Before you send anything

What happens to my documents?

After you pay, you upload them on a private page. They are used only to prepare your report, kept in private storage, and deleted within 30 days or sooner on request. Nothing is sent to an AI service without your written permission.

How is this different from a quality-of-earnings report?

A QoE is a CPA’s deep review, usually $15,000 or more, done once you are close to buying. This is a fast first pass at the LOI stage, so you only pay for a QoE on deals that survive it.

What if the seller only sent a CIM?

The report still checks the CIM’s numbers and financing, and lists exactly which P&Ls and returns to request. Matching against tax returns needs the returns.

Does a good report mean the SBA will approve my loan?

No. The financing check uses common screening assumptions, and your lender makes its own decision.

Are the figures on this page real?

No. The sample deal and the demo video use a fictional laundromat so you can see the report without exposing anyone’s private numbers.
