Failure to identify and perform due diligence early in the process, especially to ensure compliance togovernmental and quasi-governmental bodies, anti-trust authorities, and sector specific regulations. Properdue diligence should also identify potential regulatory changes that could effect the post-transactionenvironment.

BEWARE: Deal Busters

Due Diligence

Stakeholder Engagement

Deal Structure

Contractual Provisions

Failure to engage stakeholders at all levels including key government agencies, anti-trust and regulatoryauthorities, value chain counterparties, media, and employee groups. A plan for engagement should beimplemented early to ensure a broad base of support.

Any final deal should factor in the costs associated to addressing risks or underperformance. Commonapproaches are ‘fix it first’, ‘take or pay’, and ‘reverse auctions’ to ensure buyer and seller agree on the post-transaction landscape. Depending on the specifics, alternative structure be employed to allow a route tomarket.

Ensure buyers and sellers are fully incentivized to complete the transaction while allowing for unintendedoutcomes such as anti-trust or regulatory risk. Material break fees should be within relevant legal restrictions.
