If Cyber Can Move a Stock Price, It Can Move a Deal Price
Host: Mike Fitzpatrick
A single cyber issue can cut your valuation before you ever reach the negotiating table. Most advisors won’t mention it. Buyers won’t announce it. But the discount shows up anyway.
In this episode, Mike Fitzpatrick breaks down how cyber risk shapes deal pricing in the mid-market, why buyers model exposure long before diligence begins, and how sellers lose millions simply by failing to prove their security posture.
Cyber won’t decide your future. It will decide the number attached to it. And in most exits, that number is the difference between what you built and what you walk away with.
What’s Inside:
• Why cyber is now a valuation metric
• How uncertainty shows up as an immediate price cut
• The hidden impact of MSP breaches on deal exposure
• Why insurance cannot replace real risk reduction
• Why proof protects value — and assumptions don’t
