Material founder dependency. Consider a 2-3 year earn-out and build in a handover plan before completion.

FACTORS

  • +Young company: Only 0.9 years old — management layer unlikely to be developed.

SIGNALS
  • secondaryFounder aged 58+: Senior director is approximately 60. Early succession window.
