For an investment in a startup business, which doesn’t have long track record, how could the investor identify more red flags through DD?
In startup investments, due diligence should shift from validating past performance to stress-testing assumptions and business fundamentals. Investors can identify red flags by closely examining the unit economics, customer traction, and scalability of the business model, rather than relying on top-line growth alone.
Particular attention should be given to quality of revenue (e.g., repeat vs one-off customers), dependency on key founders or clients, burn rate and funding runway, and realism of financial projections.
