This LBO modeling-focused course focuses on a Middle Market transaction, where private equity professionals often operate with little structure. First, you will listen in on a conference call with the Managing Partner of a hypothetical private equity firm and, through step-by-step videos, learn to build a monthly LBO model from scratch that answers the seemingly simple (yet loaded) question, “is this deal financeable, and what do the returns look like?” After the call, the Managing Partner will be unavailable for any follow-up questions, so this course walks you through how to think independently and come up with solutions when you’re on your own, just like you will be expected to on the job. The course concludes with print-friendly summaries and an email recommendation to the Managing Partner on whether or not to move forward with the deal.

Private Equity Masterclass Highlights
Intuitive, Self-Paced and Comprehensive
Wall Street Prep's Private Equity Masterclass is intuitive and self-paced. The Private Equity Deal Process portion of the program walks users through the various stages of the PE deal process using a case study (JoeCo Coffee Company), documents such as the teaser, CIM, NDA as well as a "mini model" to show how deals are done and to teach what it takes to be a valuable part of a PE deal team. The LBO Modeling portion of the program teaches students how to build, analyze, and interpret LBO models and transactions in a step-by-step fashion using videos, readings, ready-to-use LBO models and exercises using a real case study.
