Long-Form LBO Model

Eventually, we're going to break down the long-form LBO model for you into easy-to-follow steps. In the meantime, we want to provide you with a finished product that you can play with and reverse-engineer to further your understanding of the LBO model.

The long-form LBO model presented here is derived from the actual LBO models used by three bulge bracket investment banks and a model created by John Burns widely available on the web. We have tried to combine the best aspects of all these models into the one presented here. You'll find annotations throughout the model to facilitate your understanding of its structure and assumptions.
