Exit Readiness Saudi Arabia
Preparing your Saudi business for sale -- financial clean-up, ZATCA compliance, valuation optimisation, vendor due diligence, and buyer process management.
Selling a Saudi business is a complex process -- and businesses that prepare thoroughly command significantly higher valuations and achieve better deal terms than those that enter a sale process unprepared. Sophisticated buyers and their advisors will scrutinise every ZATCA assessment, probe every revenue quality question, and apply discount for every compliance gap they find. Exit readiness is the process of systematically addressing those issues before the buyer does -- maximising valuation and deal certainty.
Intelli Solutions provides a structured exit readiness programme for Saudi business owners contemplating a sale or ownership transition -- typically run 12–24 months before the planned transaction to allow time to address the issues identified and demonstrate the improvements to prospective buyers.
The Exit Readiness Programme
Business Valuation
Understanding what your business is worth today -- and identifying the specific actions that would increase the valuation by the transaction date.
ZATCA Compliance Audit
Full review of all ZATCA obligations -- identifying open assessments, filing gaps, Fatoorah compliance status, and WHT omissions -- and resolving all material issues before buyer due diligence.
Financial Statement Quality
Ensuring 3 years of IFRS-compliant, SOCPA-audited financial statements are available -- the minimum requirement for any serious buyer or their advisors.
Quality of Earnings Review
Identifying and adjusting for non-recurring items in historical earnings -- ensuring the EBITDA presented to buyers accurately reflects the ongoing earnings power of the business.
Vendor Due Diligence
Commissioning a vendor due diligence report -- a seller-prepared DD that answers buyers' questions before they ask them, accelerating the transaction timeline and building buyer confidence.
Process Management
Managing the information memorandum, virtual data room, management presentations, and buyer Q&A process -- protecting confidentiality while enabling efficient buyer evaluation.
