What is CIM?

A Confidential Information Memorandum (CIM), which is also known as an Offering Memorandum (OM), Confidential Business Review (CBR), or Information Memorandum (IM), is a marketing document prepared by M&A consultants or investment bankers hired by the selling company during the Merger and Acquisition process.

CIM is usually prepared for potential buyers or investors giving them a complete overview of the seller’s business. CIM aims to ensure that the selling company looks lucrative from investors'/buyers' perspectives, so that the seller can get the maximum valuation for their business.

About OGS Capital

Contents of a Confidential Information Memorandum

The contents of a CIM will vary depending on the company and its situation, but generally it comprises the following information:

What should not be included in a CIM?

A CIM is not an exhaustive list of every detail about the business; rather, it should be concise and informative. While preparing a CIM, some confidential information like tax information (including copies of tax returns), list of key customers, detailed breakdowns of income and expenditure, etc. are usually excluded. The main reason for doing so is that it protects the interests of the company and its potential investors by safeguarding those details from public scrutiny.

Q:
What is the difference between an Operating Memorandum and Confidential Information Memorandum?

The term Confidential Information Memorandum (CIM) is sometimes used interchangeably with the term Operating Memorandum (OM). CIM is also termed as Offering Circular (OC), Confidential Business Review (CBR), Private Placement Memorandum (PPM) or Confidential Offering Memorandum (COM). It can be difficult to differentiate between these terms, especially as some financial institutions use these different terms for these same documents.

What a Confidential Information Memorandum Is Not?

Now that we have covered what should form a part of a CIM and what shouldn’t, it’s now super important to understand what a CIM is not.

  1. CIM is not a legally binding agreement/contract: A CIM is not a legally binding document. It is just a marketing document for potential investors or buyers that outlines the investment opportunities in the company. CIM is designed to make a company appear as attractive as possible. However, it should be ensured that all the information stated in CIM should be true and not misleading.
  2. CIM is not a pitchbook: A pitchbook is a sales document prepared by an investment bank used to help businesses and their sales teams sell products, services and even attract new clients. Pitchbook should not be mistaken for a CIM. When a corporation wants to sell their business, an investment bank will use a pitchbook, whereas CIM is used by the investment bank you hired to convince a third party to purchase your business.
  3. CIM is not a valuation document: When an investment bank is trying to sell a business, they try to get the maximum possible value for it. Thus, while preparing a CIM, the investment bank doesn’t include any specific information on the exact valuation of the business. This way, they can let the potential investor place a bid by themselves and obtain a maximum business valuation.
