Client Success: Solid Due Diligence Reveals Fraudulent Tax History

A private equity firm was targeting an insurance agency for a potential deal. At the onset of due diligence, stated income on the financial statements used to calculate the anticipated transaction price exceeded the income on the organization’s federal tax return. Through a further investigation and a follow-up interview, the owner stated he did not record sales to their three largest customers on the organization’s financials, and had understated his income to taxing authorities for over five years. The transaction was abandoned by the private equity firm.
