    Practical Guidance for Private Equity Investors in the First 100 Days Post-Acquisition

    The deal closes, the M&A lawyers step away, and the real work begins. That’s when recently acquired companies turn to e2E to professionalize their finance and HR functions. In this conversation with host Greg Hawver, e2E founder and CEO Nancy McCullough pulls back the curtain on the first 100 days after acquisition. From “opportunities” that e2E often finds when it walks in the door to recommended tools that drive efficiency, Nancy reflects on 13 years at the helm. With e2E itself acquired just one year ago, she also provides the perspective of an entrepreneur’s “journey to enterprise.” “It was fun going through due diligence, having done that many times for other companies,” she says.

    Deal-Hunting During Mixed Economic Signals: Expert Insights

    “In terms of the big three numbers – employment, inflation, and GDP growth – our baseline forecast is optimistic,” says Matt Wolf of RSM in this economic outlook discussion with host Greg Hawver. Matt points to a 4.2% unemployment rate, two-and-a-half point inflation, and 2.5% GDP growth. But he also observes that the uncertainty of tariffs is creating “paralysis” among operators and some investors. “There's just too many variables right now to try to game out any sort of meaningful investment,” he suggests.
