In this episode of The SPAC Podcast, Mike Blankenship and Derek dive into the due diligence process from the sponsor’s perspective. What does it really take to determine if a private company is ready for the public markets via a SPAC?

Sponsors go beyond high-level growth narratives. They examine whether financials have been audited under PCAOB standards, evaluate the quality of forecasts, assess operational readiness, and explore any legal or regulatory risks. SPAC teams also consider leadership structure, internal controls, and the company’s path to profitability—all critical factors when preparing for the demands of life as a public entity. This episode outlines a thoughtful approach to pre-merger diligence.
