Introduction

LBO (leveraged buyout) model is a financial analysis tool used to evaluate the acquisition of a company using a significant amount of borrowed funds, typically by a private equity firm. It assesses the feasibility and potential returns of the transaction based on projected cash flows and the financial structure of the deal. The purpose of an LBO is usually to enable a private equity firm to acquire a controlling interest in a company.

LBOs can be risky because they rely heavily on borrowed money, which means the target company must generate enough cash flow to service its debt obligations. However, when successful, LBOs can generate significant returns for investors due to the leverage used to acquire the company.
