Comprehensive Financial Analysis and Quality of Earnings ERP Verification
Whether you're preparing for a transaction, seeking funding, or simply improving internal financial clarity, these services offer deep insights that go far beyond traditional bookkeeping or monthly reporting.
At Lace Consulting Group, we specialize in helping grow businesses, investors, and acquisition teams make confident decisions through ERP Verifications of Comprehensive Financial Analysis and Quality of Earnings (QoE) reporting.
A Comprehensive Financial Analysis is a full-spectrum evaluation of a company’s financial performance, trends, and risks. We do an in depth analysis of your ERP to verify:
- Revenue and margin trends
- Cost structure and operational efficiency
- Cash flow generation and sustainability
- Working capital management
- Debt structure and leverage
- Financial forecasting and scenario modeling
This kind of analysis gives business owners, CFOs, and investors the clarity they need to evaluate performance, identify growth levers, and prepare for future capital needs or strategic moves.
A Quality of Earnings Report is a key component of financial due diligence, especially in mergers, acquisitions, and fundraising. It assesses the sustainability and accuracy of a company’s earnings, rather than simply reporting what the financials say on paper.
We verify:
- Recurring vs. non-recurring income
- Adjustments for owner-related expenses
- Revenue recognition methods
- Customer and supplier concentrations
- Any unusual accounting treatments
- Working capital normalization
- EBITDA adjustments and true cash flow
QoE reports are vital to uncover hidden risks and ensure that reported profits reflect true business health and future earnings potential.

QoE ERP Verification FAQs
No. While QoE is common in M&A, it's equally useful for businesses seeking capital, restructuring, or making internal decisions. It adds credibility to your numbers in any scenario.
Typically, the buyer commissions the QoE report during due diligence. However, sellers increasingly conduct a "sell-side QoE" to prepare proactively and improve positioning.
Software and ERP systems are an organizations' central nervous system, and they don't lie. Backing up reported activity and financials through mining the actual data in ERP systems can uncover concealed financial risks that have been inaccurately reported for numerous reasons.
