**TO:** M&A Steering Committee
**FROM:** Due Diligence Lead Analyst
**DATE:** 2025-08-13
**SUBJECT:** Executive Summary of Due Diligence Findings for Moss Group (Deal ID: MNA-2024-TOGETHER691)

This document summarizes the results of the comprehensive due diligence process for the potential acquisition of Moss Group. The review period commenced on 2024-12-13 and concluded on 2024-12-31, 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, Moss Group exhibits a stable revenue growth trend. Our analysis of the past three years of performance data indicates an average EBITDA margin of 27.2% and a net profit margin of 16.9%. The company's balance sheet is characterized by a complex debt structure. Valuation notes highlight that the intellectual property portfolio (redefine bricks-and-clicks markets) valued as a key intangible asset.

The legal review encompassed an examination of 275 key commercial agreements. Of significant note is the confirmation of no active, material litigations. Operationally, the target's supply chain is assessed as diversified, while its technological backbone is considered largely state-of-the-art.

The investigation surfaced several key risks. A medium-severity legal risk was identified concerning 'Significant risk from enable best-of-breed methodologies.'. The potential financial impact of this particular issue is estimated to be in the range of $8,578,294. Proposed mitigation strategies include 'Implement transform turn-key platforms framework to diverse multimedia attitude.' to address primary concerns. 
Ultimately, considering the complete findings and the high overall risk profile, the formal recommendation is to **Do not proceed**. </data>
