Explanation & evidence
1
$1.2M 'one-time' legal add-back — genuinely non-recurring?
Challenge
Same vendor billed in FY22 and FY23 — recurring IP litigation, not one-time. GL_FY23 rows 4412–4430.
2
$600k owner compensation add-back — normalize?
Accept
Confirmed above-market comp; role not replaced post-close. Mgmt accounts Q4, p.7.
GL_FY23, rows 4412–4430
Example questions
  • Is this add-back genuinely non-recurring, and what in the source data supports it?
  • Are there owner or related-party expenses that should be normalized, and by how much?
  • Does revenue recognition match delivery, or is revenue pulled forward across period ends?
  • What is the normalized net working capital level, and how does it compare to the proposed peg?
…and any others you write.
