Build the LBO model, don't just watch one.

For people recruiting for private equity — on-cycle or off-cycle — and associates who want to actually own the model instead of inheriting someone else's tabs.

What's inside

6 modules, built around real deal mechanics — no filler, no padding to justify a higher price elsewhere.

• 01
  LBO logic, before the spreadsheet

  Why debt changes returns — the mechanics behind every downstream formula.
• 02
  Sources & uses, entry assumptions

  Purchase price, financing structure, and transaction fees.
• 03
  Debt schedule & cash flow build

  Revolver, term loans, cash sweeps, and covenants.
• 04
  Returns: IRR, MOIC, sensitivity tables

  Building the outputs investors actually look at first.
• 05
  Full case study, from teaser to exit

  One real-shaped deal, modeled end to end, with a solved version to check against.
• 06
  Interview-style rapid drills

  The "walk me through an LBO" prompts, timed, with templates you rebuild fast.

What you'll be able to do

• Build a full LBO model from a blank sheet, unaided
• Explain why leverage moves equity returns, not just that it does
• Handle a case study under a 1-3 hour time limit
• Sensitize an exit multiple and defend the IRR that results
