About this listen
In this episode, Deborah sits down with Jason Correia, a Principal at CLA and an expert in Quality of Earnings (Q of E) analysis for M&A transactions. Jason breaks down why Q of E reports are essential for verifying the accuracy of financials, understanding true cash flow, and normalizing earnings to reflect what a business will really look like under new ownership.
Discussed are key topics like normalizing owner-related expenses, determining net working capital, and how these analyses impact deal value and negotiations. Jason also shares insights from his career journey—from auditing to M&A—and how his team at CLA supports both buyers and sellers through every phase of the transaction.
Tune in to learn how Q of E can reveal the real earnings story behind the numbers.
