Balance Sheet in LBO Model - More Recent

Doing an LBO. BS is more recent (6mo more recent; half way through FY) than I/S. How do I address this? I have a BS that matches the FYE I/S as well, but it's obviously not as 'fresh' despite being in the same ballpark.


I'm thinking I pro forma it for goodwill/financing fee/debt/transaction expenses based off the more recent one, but then in my first year of projections, I'll be applying YoY data (e.g, the working capital schedule is building off annual sales & COGS etc). It's an annual model. Any simple workaround? Thanks guys & gals.
