PE Case Study 48h
I have 48h to do a PE Case Study for CD&R. I have practiced LBO models befor but this is my first time doing a case study so I would appreciate advice on how to approach it( the presentation but mainly the model itself), any useful prep material or info in case someone has done it.
Is it for London?
Yes!
FT or internship?
I would be prepared for a bunch of different types of case studies. I've done some where no model was needed at all. I've done some where I was allowed to pull up an already made LBO and plug in inputs and change growth rates. I've also had to build them from scratch. I'd use YouTube for resources as to how to build a simple LBO if you don't already know how. Something to note is that the firm is looking to see if understand how an LBO works rather than judging your actual modeling skills.
Since you've been given 48 hours, I'm assuming the firm is expecting you to have a pretty nice model built out. I'd be sure to mainly focus on a correct model, but be sure to be able to support all assumptions thoroughly. I think that is the biggest/most important part of the case study.
Good luck.
What YouTube videos helped? If you don’t mind sharing. Thank you!
Thank you!

Recently did a 48 hour case for a MF where the firm gives you a ticker and you have to come up with an investment case. Minimal guidance but I put together a 3-statement model, DCF analysis (unlevered and levered DCF with a full WACC analysis), comps, and an LBO with an 8-10 slide IC memo.
It's not hard but it is very time consuming going through filings, IPs, equity research, etc. If you're able to complete it over a weekend without work blowing up, I think you should be fine.
Can you help with a case study I have due tomorrow? I built a model and need help. I will pay
Hey have you completed this yet? How did it go?
General advice on how to deal with a case study (not CD&R specific):
Can you please share any details on the case study? Much appreciate it!
