What could go wrong

Cheap for a reason is the question the numbers cannot answer. Whether the price already reflects the risks is what the deep dive is for.

Everything above is arithmetic on public filings. The deep dive reads the last ten years of annual reports, the proxy statements, and the earnings calls, then argues the case the way Buffett, Klarman, and Hohn would, and checks every claim against the source.
