PE Case Study Examples
When I was recruiting, the hardest thing to prep for was the case study, not the paper LBO, the actual "here's a CIM, build a model and tell us if you'd do the deal" exercise. There's almost nothing realistic floating around to practice on. So I wrote up two full anonymized case packets, the kind of materials a firm actually hands you:
- A full 3-statement LBO on a consumer brand (complex debt - tiered ECF sweep, PIK, seller rollover, management options)
- An investment memo debrief on a healthcare/education staffing platform
Each one has the business overview, end markets, historical financials, and every assumption you need to build the model yourself in Excel.
Happy to share where to find them if useful or find them free on the site, and happy to keep adding other industries and concepts.

You keep posting this on the PE forum and also never answered other people's questions they asked in your prior post about your website and offering. At first gave you benefit of the doubt but this seems like a money grab now
