The Notice
Your best portfolio company just lost the one person who runs the numbers. Fourteen months from exit. What survives?
You are the operating partner. Halden Logistics is fourteen months from a planned exit. This morning its controller, the only person who can produce the numbers a buyer will demand, resigned. Two weeks' notice.
Every choice moves three things: how much of her knowledge you keep, how confident a buyer will be, and what the company is worth at exit. Bad calls compound. There are no do-overs.
