idk about actual realized returns but in my mind a LMM LBO should be underwritten to a 25%+ IRR / 3x MOIC over that time horizon given operational lift and risk level.
Probably 3.0x and 25% IRR
Agree with others. Many LP's will want higher returns to compensate for added risk due to smaller businesses. MF's can target 2x but LMM is usually 2.5-3.5x depending on size.
