Supporting deal teams to make confident, value‑driven decisions

We focus exclusively on transaction support

Discovery Diligence is a senior‑delivered, founder‑led financial due diligence practice that supports investors, acquirers and lenders across the UK regional mid‑market (£3m–£30m enterprise value). We help deal teams make confident, value‑driven decisions.

Discovery Diligence was created as the alternative to the traditional accountancy firms which rely on junior-heavy leveraged teams: instead we deliver through experienced transaction specialists delivering sharp analysis, clear conclusions and commercially grounded advice, at deal speed.

We focus exclusively on transaction support. No audit or corporate finance conflicts, just pragmatic, independent diligence tailored to deal teams, Boards and Investment Committees.

Lower-mid-market businesses rarely have perfect data or mature finance functions. We excel at extracting insight from imperfect data, identifying value drivers quickly, and filling gaps with informed, experience‑led judgement where the data runs out.

Discovery Diligence is led by Paul Kithoray, a transaction services specialist with 28 years’ deals experience. Our delivery model combines Paul’s deal leadership supported by a trusted network of experienced delivery partners, giving clients scalability, breadth and rapid mobilisation when transactions demand it.
