**TO:** M&A Steering Committee
**FROM:** Due Diligence Lead Analyst
**DATE:** 2025-08-13
**SUBJECT:** Executive Summary of Due Diligence Findings for Boyd-Andrews (Deal ID: MNA-2025-THIS103)

This document summarizes the results of the comprehensive due diligence process for the potential acquisition of Boyd-Andrews. The review period commenced on 2025-07-23 and concluded on 2025-09-21, involving extensive analysis by our internal teams and external consultants. The team's general sentiment, following several late-night sessions and copious amounts of coffee, is cautiously optimistic.

From a financial perspective, Boyd-Andrews exhibits a volatile revenue growth trend. Our analysis of the past three years of performance data indicates an average EBITDA margin of 14.4% and a net profit margin of 10.0%. The company's balance sheet is characterized by a complex debt structure. Valuation notes highlight that the intellectual property portfolio (harness 24/365 solutions) valued as a key intangible asset.

The legal review encompassed an examination of 434 key commercial agreements. Of significant note is the confirmation of no active, material litigations. Operationally, the target's supply chain is assessed as vulnerable, while its technological backbone is considered largely hybrid.

The investigation surfaced several key risks. A high-severity operational risk was identified concerning 'High risk from redefine B2C eyeballs.'. The potential financial impact of this particular issue is estimated to be in the range of $11,451,442. 
Ultimately, considering the complete findings and the very high overall risk profile, the formal recommendation is to **Do not proceed**. </data>
