SRS Acquiom. The Smartest Way to Run a Deal™

The SRS Acquiom Earnouts & Claims Study offers exclusive insights into private-target acquisitions that closed between 2009 and mid-2026. With a dataset of over 1,174 deals valued at more than $1 trillion, the study provides a deep understanding of post-closing activities such as indemnification claims, claim resolution, earnout performance, and expense fund utilization.

These details are typically not available through public sources. Kip, a senior director in SRS Acquiom's thought leadership practice, led the creation of this study. Kip's mission is to share resourceful content built from SRS Acquiom's expertise and proprietary data. Kip has extensive experience in M&A transactions, having previously worked as an attorney with a Denver-based boutique business law firm.

Ruth, another director in SRS Acquiom's thought leadership practice, also played a significant role in the study. Ruth's responsibilities included facilitating interactive presentations and authoring content based on the proprietary data. Ruth's background includes working as an in-house counsel for a multinational public company and as a law clerk for the Colorado Supreme Court.

Both Kip and Ruth are active members of Colorado's legal community, with Ruth recently receiving the Chris Miranda Outstanding Hispanic Lawyer Award.
