Example case study or VDR materials

Hi all! Not sure if there's a repository for this (more than happy to pay if so) but looking for case study materials for PE interviews, namely the supplementary materials (company financials, CIM, etc) that are provided to complete the case study. Alternatively, if there are any illustrative VDRs for spoof companies or former deals that people have used for preparation, that'd also be helpful.

Based on the WSO content, while there isn't a specific repository mentioned for PE interview case study materials like company financials or CIMs, you can access a variety of resources that could be beneficial. The WSO offers financial modeling templates and guides on types of financial models, which can be instrumental in preparing for PE interviews. Additionally, the WSO forums and the Private Equity Interview Guide provide insights into what to expect during these interviews, including types of documents like CIMs that are typically analyzed.

For more practical preparation, the WSO Free Modeling Series, available until September 30, 2023, includes lessons on financial statement modeling, DCF, M&A, LBO, and more, which are crucial for PE case studies. Plus, you get access to 27 financial modeling templates which can simulate the experience of working with real VDR materials.

If you're looking for specific case studies or simulated VDRs (Virtual Data Rooms), these might not be directly available through WSO, but the training and templates provided can serve as a solid foundation for creating your own practice materials based on typical deal structures and financial scenarios discussed in the forums and courses.
