# Raven Adversary (https://ravenadversary.com) > Deterministic 14-layer SEC EDGAR forensic M&A transaction-state reconstruction and statutory governance auditing for merger arbitrage funds, Delaware Chancery litigators, activist investors, and Special Committees. 100% public filings. Zero MNPI. ## Core Architecture (14-Layer Deterministic Pipeline) - **Constitutional Axiom**: Trust Nothing. Verify Everything Against EDGAR Accession Records (SHA-256 content hashes). - **Latest-Amendment Rule**: Definitive proxy/registration statements (`DEFM14A`, `S-4/A`) automatically supersede preliminary filings (`PREM14A`, `S-4`). - **Bilateral Decoupled Dollar Math**: Target termination fees, reverse termination fees, and liability caps are computed against separate equity and enterprise denominators. - **Statutory Voting Power Topology**: Exact unaffiliated float math across `DGCL § 144` ("Votes Cast"), `Rule 13e-3 MFW` ("All Unaffiliated Shares"), `DGCL § 251` ("Majority of Outstanding Shares"), and `UK Companies Act Part 26` (75% Value + Headcount Test). - **Okapi BM25 + M&A Lexical Booster**: High-recall extraction across 10-K/10-Q footnotes, credit agreements, Tax Receivable Agreements (TRAs), and convertible debt indentures. - **Layer 12 Fiduciary Release Gate**: Hardcoded zero-fabrication tolerance; unfiled schedules or omitted disclosures are logged in Chapter 12 as `INTELLIGENCE_GAP` (`[GAP]`) vectors. ## 3-Tier Gated Deliverable Suite 1. **1-Page Contractual Clause Card**: Statutory vote thresholds, Debt CoC puts, and TRA acceleration mechanics. 2. **2-Page Executive Transaction Brief**: Investment Committee & Special Committee synthesis of capital-stack reconciliation and primary downside wedges. 3. **16-Chapter Statutory Audit Dossier**: Full 14-layer forensic reconstruction with SHA-256 accession citations and Chapter 12 `[GAP]` registers. ## Verified 10-Deal Institutional Surveillance Matrix ($1.12B – $16.3B) - **01.
