Mergers and Acquisitions Contractual Due Diligence Course

Training Outlines

Introduction

Material contracts can determine whether an acquisition delivers its expected value. Change-of-control restrictions, termination rights, customer concentration, pricing commitments, guarantees and unresolved claims may affect valuation, closing certainty and post-deal integration.

This course provides a disciplined framework for contractual due diligence in mergers, acquisitions and investments. Participants define scope and materiality, manage data-room review, analyze key clause families and quantify commercial exposure. Practical exercises convert findings into red-flag reports, consent plans, conditions precedent, warranties, indemnities, price protections and integration actions, enabling transaction teams to distinguish manageable issues from risks that should reshape the deal.

Build a complete material-contract inventory
