Sync-Book · Financial Readiness

Institutional-grade books. Exit-ready financials.

Sync-Book closes the financial gaps that cost businesses multiple at exit and credibility in a capital raise — GAAP compliance, accrual revenue, cash conversion, and a defensible NWC baseline.

What's at stake

The difference between a and a business.

What Sync-Book solves

The gaps that quietly cost businesses value.

These are the findings that surface in every QoE process — and the ones a properly prepared set of books prevents from becoming purchase price adjustments.

The program

Four pillars. One defensible set of books.

Why it matters

If the next move is exit or growth.

If the next move is
Exit
Protect the multiple. Preserve the NWC peg. Prevent the 5–15% of purchase price that gets re-traded between LOI and signing.
If the next move is
Growth
Close capital rounds faster, on better terms, with fewer surprises. Decide with data instead of instinct.

Frequently asked questions

What is Sync-Book?
Sync-Book is a financial readiness program that closes the gaps that cost businesses multiple at exit and credibility in a capital raise. It covers four pillars: GAAP-compliant books, accrual revenue recognition, cash conversion, and net working capital baseline.
When should a company engage Sync-Book?
Sync-Book is most valuable 12 to 24 months before a planned exit or capital raise — early enough to restate historical periods, build a defensible NWC baseline, and eliminate the QoE findings that reduce purchase price post-LOI. Engaging after LOI is too late.
What is the NWC peg and why does it matter?
The Net Working Capital peg is the target NWC level agreed at LOI that determines whether there is a price adjustment at closing. It is one of the most common places purchase price gets re-traded between LOI and signing. Sync-Book establishes a rolling 12-month normalized NWC baseline and a defensible target before the process begins.
