Effective Analysis

Frequently, a comprehensive due diligence process is required when a company evaluates a potential asset acquisition. It can become more complex in the pipeline industry considering the number of stakeholders that can be involved to assess scope, schedule, estimate and the risks associated with such a project. When a pipeline company contemplates an acquisition of an existing pipeline system, the Integrity group becomes a key supporter during the process. The condition of the pipeline shall be scrutinized in order to evaluate and manage the integrity risks associated with the project, which will contribute to successfully securing the business opportunity. A well-established process facilitates and supports effective analysis. This paper will review the methodology that has been used by a pipeline company to assess the integrity of potential asset acquisitions; challenges and the overall pipeline company’s experience will also be covered.

Purpose To explain the US Securities and Exchange Commission’s (SEC’s) June 29, 2017 announcement (as updated August 17, 2017) that the staff of its Division of Corporation Finance will accept draft registration statement submissions from all companies for nonpublic review, thereby expanding a popular benefit previously available only to emerging growth companies (ECGs) under the JOBS Act and, in limited circumstances, to certain foreign private issuers under historical Staff practices. Design/methodology/approach Explains the rationale and limitations of the new policy, the existing confidential submission process, the expanded class of issuers and transactions that now qualifies for the nonpublic review process, and content and staff processing details. Findings Recognizing that the confidential submission process for EGCs proved highly popular and quickly became standard practice for eligible companies seeking to conduct an IPO, the SEC has made the nonpublic review process available to an expanded class of issuers and transactions. The expanded confidential submission process for IPOs addresses some of the typical concerns associated with engaging in the IPO process by giving a company more time and flexibility to determine whether it actually will be able to achieve the benefits of going public before it incurs the burdens and expenses of doing so. Originality/value Practical guidance from experienced securities and corporate finance lawyers.

Oil And Gas Sector

Many market commentators are forecasting increased corporate merger and acquisition activity in the Australian oil and gas sector. This activity presents industry participants with significant opportunities to increase shareholder value.An effectively designed acquisition approach (business process) assists in establishing strategic objectives to maximise value and returns to a company. Steps in a structured process include assessing the acquirer’s strengths and weaknesses, defining the strategy, identifying the range of possible targets and evaluating the preferred target prior to negotiating and completing the acquisition.Observed market evidence supports the theoretical notion that market participants determine the value of E&P companies with primary reference to the NAV (DCF) methodology. The benefits of this valuation methodology are that it attempts to rigorously capture the effect of large changes in production over time and the irregular nature of E&P companies’ capital expenditure programs.Effective due diligence supports the decision-making process by identifying the risk factors that can make or break a deal and assists to clarify the transaction whilst effective structuring of the acquisition will minimise value-loss through tax leakages etc.

A company's trade receivables are generally one of the largest assets of current assets and the largest part of total assets. The provision of receivables carries a risk to the company in the form of losses if the consumer does not pay his obligations. Control of internal receivables in a company is one of the methods used to anticipate fraud and anticipate the possibility of uncollectible accounts. In controlling internal receivables, a receivables information system is needed to improve effectiveness and efficiency, maintain assets, provide accurate information, encourage compliance with regulations and management requirements that have been set. This study aims to determine the condition of the influence of end users on trade receivables using the EUC method at PT. Katama. The review process using EUC produces the level of influence of each EUC component on the user.

Human Rights Due Diligence

AbstractThis article outlines the case for a business duty of care to exercise human rights due diligence, judicially enforceable in common law countries by tort suits for negligence brought by persons whose potential injuries were reasonably foreseeable. A parent company’s duty of care would extend to the human rights impacts of all entities in the enterprise, including subsidiaries. A company would not be liable for breach of the duty of care if it proves that it reasonably exercised due diligence as set forth in the Guiding Principles on Business and Human Rights. On the other hand, a company’s failure to exercise due diligence would create a rebuttable presumption of causation and hence liability. A company could then avoid liability only by carrying its burden to prove that the risk of the human rights violations was not reasonably foreseeable, or that the damages would have resulted even if the company had exercised due diligence.

Society's increasing awareness of and interest in environmental matters has had a direct effect upon the public offering process. New environmental laws impose increasing obligations upon a company, placing greater demands upon available capital and giving rise to increased concern about current or future environmental obligations. Similarly, the public's interest in, or perception of, the environmental performance of a company may significantly affect the company's ability to raise funds through such an offering. As a result, the disclosure of environmental information is of increased importance to the public, the underwriter, the issuing company and its officers and directors. The process of environmental disclosure is, however, complicated by a variety of factors. Environmental matters are not always easily identified or quantifiable and future environmental effects are difficult to predict. Given such imprecision, issues of materiality are likely to arise. As a result, both the issuing company and the underwriter must ensure that there has been a thorough and complete investigation of existing and potential environmental concerns in order to provide reasonable assurance that the disclosures that are made in the course of a due diligence review are true and that there are no omissions of material facts. This article discusses many of the concerns that arise with respect to environmental disclosure and provides practical examples of the methods and techniques that have been used to ensure "full, true and plain disclosure".

This is an example of venture investing in an e-mail trust solution developed by Postiva, a company that provided “e-mail trust solutions” and also had a complementary line of business in privacy education and consulting services. “E-mail trust solutions” are best-of-breed information technology products and services that uniquely combine aspects of e-mail content security (e.g., antispam, antivirus), authentication, and customer relationship management technologies. In short, the company’s products enabled e-mail sender authentication and accountability, more efficient e-mail processing, and filtering capabilities for ISPs and recipients and heightened privacy, security, confidence, and control to consumers as they wade through increasingly cluttered and danger-filled e-mail in-boxes. This example discusses the company’s business plan and then filters the investment opportunity—from the perspective of a venture investor—with the 15 due diligence criteria.
