·        Information about the primary products and/or services

·        Information about production and purchasing

·        Marketing processes and sales procedures

·        Financial and accounting records

·        Balance sheet and profit and loss statements

·        Operational results (current and historical)

 

AMTS conducts research with the goal of presenting a solid understanding of the company’s products, markets, and management.  An example of the information reviewed includes both public information as well as information provided by the company being considered for acquisition, partnering or collaborating with.
