My reservations would be based on the difficulty to forecast the level of business month by month for the first 12 months in business. I have seen cases where one gets a big contract and the following month very little, it is peaks and troughs. I would be concerned about the administrative burden this places on the business in trying to prove whether it is financially viable or not. I ask that this would be highlighted and taken on board.
