can expose critical issues that commonly remain hidden until a transition event is initiated

Weak governance or management structures
Poor financial reporting and
controls
Limited investor readiness
Unprotected intellectual property
Key-person or founder dependency
Critical succession risks
Systemic operational inefficiencies
