COMPLETE SOLUTIONS GRADED A++ LATEST UPDATE
How much debt is right to put on a business? How much leverage is put on a
typical private equity firm?
Generally, you want equity percentage to be around 20 to 40% of total value. The
smaller, the equity investment the greater the return.

Total debt is often between 4 to 6 times LTM bit ebitda.
What is and how does rollover equity work?
Rollover equity is equity carried over by management after they previously owned part
of the firm. The sources side will appear normal, however, the uses and purchased
equity by the PE firm will be impacted.
If the management team carries over the stake, it is taken out of the initial value, the
private equity firm puts into the business.
See PE LBO model 2.
The size of the management rollover should not impact the IRR or money or money

the size of your initial investment. I.e you invest 10% less but get 10% less back. This
equals out.

cash uses/sources equal to 0.

capital?
