The deal context

Disclosure Schedules on waste and recycling deals is one of those workstreams that looks routine on a checklist and decides outcomes in practice.

The typical waste and recycling platform sits at $12M to $150M EV with EBITDA in the $3M to $25M range. The thesis runs on regional hauler or transfer station consolidation. Permitted volume is the asset, not the trucks. Diligence the permits before the EBITDA.

The moves

How Disclosure Schedules actually gets structured.

  1. Coordinate disclosure schedule preparation with the seller's diligence file, not against it.

  2. Specifically disclose against specific reps, with cross-reference indexing.

  3. Use the schedules to surface known issues, not to hide them.

  4. Update schedules at signing and again at closing where allowed.

  5. In waste and recycling, layer in permit transfer applications filed before LOI signing as part of the Disclosure Schedules workstream.

The common mistake

Treating disclosure as a dump. The schedules carry the same legal weight as the reps; they need the same precision.

Jason's take
"Disclosure schedules are the most underrated document in M&A. They protect both sides when done right."

Capital after close

The deal is one thing. The capital that opens up after close is another.

After close, the call list for refinancing, recapitalization, and growth equity gets short and known. Jason carries that list.
