What’s the NWC peg in the latest SPA draft, and does it tie to the Q2 balance sheet?

The peg is $4.2M (SPA v3, §2.4). The Q2 balance sheet shows NWC of $4.6M, so the draft peg sits $0.4M below the trailing quarter. Q&A item 212 notes the seller’s figure excludes a $0.35M inventory build.

A retrieval engine built for M&A.

PDFs and scans, spreadsheets down to the cell, contracts down to the clause, emails and their attachments — all of it read once and turned into something your assistant can search. One index per deal. Your documents stay where they are.

Deal team applications

  • Diligence Q&A

    “What is the NWC peg in the latest SPA draft, and does it tie to the Q2 balance sheet?” You get the answer, the file and the page.

  • Model inputs, sourced

    Pull figures into the model with the cell they came from. Or ask for a preloaded workbook: staged values in one tab, a Sources tab with a screenshot of each PDF beside the number it feeds.

  • What changed overnight

    Drop the new export. North Arm shows what is new, changed or gone since your last call.

  • Decks in your firm’s format

    Upload a few of your own decks once. North Arm learns the layout and builds teasers, CIM summaries and buyer updates on your master — citation footer on every slide, sources slide at the end.

  • Deal kickoff

    Hand it the teaser, the CIM and the room. It proposes a plan, drafts an outline, waits for your approval, then builds the deck and preloads the model.

  • Project email

    Every room gets an address. Forward a file; it is indexed and answerable minutes later.

  • Diligence tracking and memos

    A question list from Excel becomes a matrix of documents by questions, every cell cited. Memos draft from your templates.

  • Closing

    Legal hold when you need it. At close, one action destroys the index and produces a closing package from the access log — written for a risk team.

What stays yours

  • Your files stay on your machine

    North Arm keeps the index. You keep the documents.

  • Your model keys, or prepaid credits

    Run Claude on your firm’s Anthropic account — your terms, your retention settings, your choice of model. Or pre-pay for credits and skip the procurement. Your data trains nothing either way.

  • Every retrieval logged

    Who asked, from where, which files came back, when. The log records access, not content. App conversations live with the room and go when it goes.

  • One room, one index, one access list

    Every deal is sealed to itself.

  • Your identity provider

    Sign in with your firm’s SSO. Read access only.

  • Answers travel, documents stay

    Claude and ChatGPT reach the room through North Arm. Delete the room and it is gone.

Information asymmetry works both ways.

  • Start from their request list

    Load it. North Arm maps each item to the files you already have, flags the gaps, and builds the folder structure around it.

  • Or start from a template

    North Arm drafts the request list and folder tree for your deal type. Edit it, fill it, ship it to the buyer.

Built on the deal desk.

Repeat founders. One spent five years in M&A and closed $2B of transactions; North Arm came out of those deals — live rooms, real deadlines. Now they’re scaling it.
