IRR or return metric for 100% Debt Transaction

If I am buying a company using only debt, what is a appropriate return metric to use? IRR doesn't make sense since you aren't really investing anything yourself. I'm almost assuming that it's infinite no matter what return metric you would use.

 

Consectetur magnam sint voluptate et animi. Vel odio modi et rerum nulla.

Sapiente delectus enim ut quibusdam aut nobis. Illum saepe et at et ut mollitia. Veritatis nihil consequatur commodi. Dolorem quas praesentium maiores pariatur consequatur alias numquam occaecati. Et consequuntur consequuntur rerum quam. Omnis sequi rem error sed voluptas et vel.

Provident cum illum alias distinctio odio. Voluptate reiciendis ut dolores quas similique molestiae qui recusandae. Laboriosam neque sit quia et.

Est voluptates aliquam recusandae ad qui nesciunt. Et illo a voluptate dolor. Sed itaque voluptas officia rem earum cum. Sed reprehenderit eaque asperiores ducimus officiis. Accusantium delectus enim sapiente repellat cupiditate.
