Exit Index™ measures the sale readiness of Danish companies
Exit Index™ is an annual assessment of the sale readiness of Danish companies.
The assessment looks at the factors that typically influence a buyer’s confidence, perceived risk and willingness to pay — from market position and customer base to operations, management, documentation and financial quality.
Many companies start preparing too late
A company sale is rarely decided only when the process begins.
It is often decided long before — in how the company is documented, managed, organised and made transferable.
Many healthy companies are not weak. They simply have not been prepared to change hands. This can cost value, create uncertainty in the process and make it harder for a buyer to see the company’s full potential.
Exit Index™ is developed to make sale readiness more concrete, more measurable and easier to discuss in time.

Three Types of Sale Processes
Exit Index™ is based on seven key areas that typically have an impact on how a buyer evaluates the company.
Strategic position
How clearly the company stands in the market and how strong its future direction is.
Commercial robustness
How dependent the company is on individual customers, relationships, markets or sales efforts.
Operation and transferability
How well the company can function without the owner as a daily key person.
Management, board of directors and succession
How strong the management team is and whether the company has the necessary organizational weight.
Data and digital maturity
How well the company uses data, systems and digital workflows to create overview and control.
Legal and documentation readiness
How well agreements, rights, obligations and key documents are structured.
Financial quality
How transparent earnings, reporting, budgets and financial ratios are.
