Session 5 of the SMBootcamp Summer ETA Webinar Series is this upcoming Wednesday with Mike Jerman of Hollywell Partners on Quality of Earnings. Mike is Managing Partner at Hollywell, a longstanding member of our Deal Team, and a recurring instructor at SMBootcamp's in-person training in Tampa. He was previously CFO of multiple PE-backed companies across energy, SaaS, and manufacturing, led global PwC client engagements ranging from $200M to $40B in revenue, registered CPA in Florida, MBA from the University of Oxford, and former Captain in the United States Air Force. QofE is one of the diligence steps where first-time searchers are most exposed. The "QofE Lite" market has expanded a lot in the past two years and the price has come down, which is great for accessibility, but the trade-off is that cheaper providers often can't take the time to ask the questions that surface hidden current assets and liabilities. Mike brings a level of rigor that's becoming harder to find as the market commoditizes. We'll walk through how to read a QofE report, what questions to ask before commissioning one, and what a high-quality engagement actually looks like in practice. If have a specific QofE question you want Mike to address, drop it below and I'll bring it into the session.
