DOCUMENT DESCRIPTION

This product (Cash Flow Waterfall with 3 IRR Hurdles) is an Excel workbook (XLSX), which you can download immediately upon purchase.

If you are new to IRR hurdles, don't feel bad that it is not immediately clear. Studying the logic and flow of this template will help anyone have a better understanding of how such structures work at a basic level. You most commonly see this type of deal in real estate and oil/gas joint ventures.

Recent Update: Added a DCF Analysis with NPV.

This is a great template for anyone involved in joint venture deals, wants to learn how IRR Hurdles work (the math and logic behind it) and/or anyone looking for a more sophisticated approach to approaching investors for a potential partnership structured as a GP (sponsor or general partner) and LP (investor or limited partner).

All the logic fits on a single page so it can easily be copied and pasted into an existing deal and have the top-line cash contributions and distributions referenced into the top light yellow cells. All the math will run from there.

The purpose of such a strategy is to align incentives. The way this cash flow waterfall works is that based on the defined IRR Hurdles, the LP (the one that contributes most or all of the initial required investment) will give up some of the cash flow as the GP meets higher and higher returns for them.

The GP (the one that does all the work/operations and may contribute a smaller initial investment amount) is then incentivized to do so because that is how they earn a premium for the work they are doing.

This directly incentives the GP to do their job as optimally as possible because that is how they will earn the most money and the LP will receive higher total returns as the GP does a better job with operations.

You can structure this as a hard preferred return / pari passu / or something else just by adjusting the cash flow split percentages in the first hurdle. These kinds of financing structures are most common in businesses with fairly predictable cash flows, but you can use them in any deal you see fit.

CUSTOMER TESTIMONIALS

"FlevyPro has been a brilliant resource for me, as an independent growth consultant, to access a vast knowledge bank of presentations to support my work with clients. In terms of RoI, the value I received from the very first presentation I downloaded paid for my subscription many times over! The quality of the decks available allows me to punch way above my weight – it's like having the resources of a Big 4 consultancy at your fingertips at a microscopic fraction of the overhead."

– Roderick Cameron, Founding Partner at SGFE Ltd

"As a small business owner, the resource material available from FlevyPro has proven to be invaluable. The ability to search for material on demand based our project events and client requirements was great for me and proved very beneficial to my clients. Importantly, being able to easily edit and tailor the material for specific purposes helped us to make presentations, knowledge sharing, and toolkit development, which formed part of the overall program collateral. While FlevyPro contains resource material that any consultancy, project or delivery firm must have, it is an essential part of a small firm or independent consultant's toolbox."

– Michael Duff, Managing Director at Change Strategy (UK)

"My FlevyPro subscription provides me with the most popular frameworks and decks in demand in today’s market. They not only augment my existing consulting and coaching offerings and delivery, but also keep me abreast of the latest trends, inspire new products and service offerings for my practice, and educate me in a fraction of the time and money of other solutions. I strongly recommend FlevyPro to any consultant serious about success."

– Bill Branson, Founder at Strategic Business Architects

"As a consultant requiring up to date and professional material that will be of value and use to my clients, I find Flevy a very reliable resource.

The variety and quality of material available through Flevy offers a very useful and commanding source for information. Using Flevy saves me time, enhances my expertise and ends up being a good decision."

– Dennis Gershowitz, Principal at DG Associates

"FlevyPro provides business frameworks from many of the global giants in management consulting that allow you to provide best in class solutions for your clients."

– David Harris, Managing Director at Futures Strategy

"The wide selection of frameworks is very useful to me as an independent consultant. In fact, it rivals what I had at my disposal at Big 4 Consulting firms in terms of efficacy and organization."

– Julia T., Consulting Firm Owner (Former Manager at Deloitte and Capgemini)

"I have used Flevy services for a number of years and have never, ever been disappointed. As a matter of fact, David and his team continue, time after time, to impress me with their willingness to assist and in the real sense of the word. I have concluded in fact that it is not at all just a repository of documents/resources but, in the way that David and his team manage the firm, it is like dealing with consultants always ready to assist, advise and direct you to what you really need, and they always get it right.

I am an international hospitality accomplished senior executive who has worked and lived during the past 35 years in 23 countries in 5 continents and I can humbly say that I know what customer service is, trust me.

Aside from the great and professional service that Flevy's team provide, their wide variety of material is of utmost great quality, professionally put together and most current.

Well done Flevy, keep up the great work and I look forward to continue working with you in the future and to recommend you to a variety of colleagues around the world."

– Roberto Pelliccia, Senior Executive in International Hospitality

"One of the great discoveries that I have made for my business is the Flevy library of training materials.

As a Lean Transformation Expert, I am always making presentations to clients on a variety of topics: Training, Transformation, Total Productive Maintenance, Culture, Coaching, Tools, Leadership Behavior, etc. Flevy usually has just what I need to make my point.

It is well worth the money to purchase these presentations. Sure, I have the knowledge and information to make my point. It is another thing to create a presentation that captures what I want to say. Flevy has saved me countless hours of preparation time that is much better spent with implementation that will actually save money for my clients."

– Ed Kemmerling, Senior Lean Transformation Expert at PMG
