cim-red-flag-reviewer

Read a sell-side CIM the way a sharp buyer's MD reads it — surfacing quality-of-earnings risks, narrative gaps, and unsupported claims. Use on the buy-side when evaluating a teaser or CIM, on the sell-side as a pre-launch stress test, or when preparing IOI / LOI logic. Built around quality-of-earnings, concentration, sustainability, working capital and capex realism, and narrative pressure-testing.

# CIM Red-Flag Reviewer

## Purpose

Surface the issues a CIM is designed to softly de-emphasize — quality-of-earnings risks, customer concentration realities, margin sustainability questions, working capital and capex realism, narrative-vs-evidence gaps — before they show up in management diligence, QofE, or worst, post-close.

The output is not a critique of the CIM. It is a working risk register that informs an IOI / LOI structure on the buy-side or a pre-launch CIM tightening on the sell-side.

## Governing Principle

**Every CIM is a sales document. Read it as a sales document, not as a description.**

Sell-side advisors are paid to present the business at its best. A buyer who reads the CIM at face value is reading the answer; a sharp buyer reads the CIM looking for what the answer is leaving out.
