WHy do PE firms acquire companies?

difference between PE firm acquisiton and another firm acquistion

PE never plans to hold on forever

Real estate metaphor for LBOS'

WHat is important for PE firms vs normal firms

Company value when acquiring is all and the potential benefits via synergies (think

diamondback energies acquiring endavour energy)

-they want to understand the IRR and the firm aims for at least 20% iRR-> then the

deal works. and compares that against the fund expectations of the firm.

, What is used to fund LBO's by PE firms

only cash and debt is used not stock like many other acquisitions (think of exxon)

Two benefits of borrowing money from others and using debt to fund the deal

Why does debt amplify returns even though it has to be paid down in LBO?

because money today is worth more than money tommorow-> (TVM)-> since we can

use money to invest it into the future.

Example of how to go about calculating the impact of debt vs only cash when

doing a transaction:



Consider this scenario where an investor buys a house for $500K, rents it out to

earn $35K in

rental income per year, and then sells it for $550K after 5 years have passed:

-notice how the IRR and the MoM jump from 1.5 to 1.9x since the initial capital invested

by the firm is much less than in the first example

Part 2 of the previous example

-notice how despite the lower cash flows and the rrepayment of the debt-> the IRR as a

percentage is still higher (due to the lower purchase price of the companyy)

-this is the intrinsic theory of leverage not boosting but amplifying a companies

returns.

-deals can do better on one end but do worse on the other.

example of how leverage only worsens the plight of companies-> when there is a

downturn or structural issue with the deal.
