# Exit Preparation
## When to use
Use this skill 12-18 months before a planned exit. Exit preparation is not something to start when the banker is hired -- by then, it is too late to address the issues that depress valuation. The skill is also useful at the annual value creation review in year 3 of a 5-year hold, when the team needs to assess whether the business is on track for a premium exit or whether specific actions are required to maximise exit value. It is equally applicable to full company sales, secondary sales to other PE firms, and management buyouts.
## What it does
Produces: (1) a vendor due diligence (VDD) readiness assessment identifying the gaps most likely to surface in a buyer's diligence and impair the value; (2) a buyer universe map with strategic and financial buyer categories; (3) an equity story framework for the management presentation; and (4) a process timeline from mandate to close.
## Method
