Documents You'll Need

Buyers want a clear picture of your company’s performance over time. Include your last three years of profit & loss statements, balance sheets, tax returns, plus current year-to-date results and the trailing twelve months to show recent trends.
Provide a breakdown of your top customers or products/services by revenue. This helps buyers assess risk—strong diversification builds confidence and valuation.
List your major suppliers, terms, and any key contracts. Buyers want to understand supply chain stability and whether important relationships can transfer smoothly in a sale.
Include a current organizational chart with key roles, responsibilities, and compensation structure. This helps buyers evaluate leadership depth and ongoing operational needs post-sale.
Document recent capital expenditures and routine maintenance. Buyers want to know what’s been invested in the business—and what future costs they might expect.
Gather all active leases, intellectual property registrations, business licenses, and details of any pending or past legal matters. Clean, organized records reduce friction and increase buyer confidence.
