Based on the most helpful WSO content, here are some resources and tips for finding practice SaaS LBO models:

  1. David Skok's SaaS Metrics Primer:

    • This primer is highly recommended for understanding non-GAAP software accounting practices, which are essential for software investment analysis. You can find it in PPT/PDF format in the attachments section of David Skok's LinkedIn page.

  2. WSO Forum Threads:

    • There are several threads on WSO where users share and discuss SaaS LBO models. For example, in the thread titled "Software LBO Models for Practice," users have shared resources and offered to distribute models. You can check this thread for potential models and reach out to contributors.

  3. Community Contributions:

    • Some users on WSO have offered to anonymize and share CIMs (Confidential Information Memorandums) from tech-focused PE players. These documents often cover software LBO modeling tricks and traps. Engaging with these threads and contributors might help you get access to these resources.

  4. Exchange Offers:

    • If you have past models from other MF/UMM firms, you can offer to exchange them with other users who might have SaaS-specific models. This can be a mutually beneficial way to expand your collection of practice models.

For more detailed discussions and potential model exchanges, you can visit the following WSO forum threads: - https://www.wallstreetoasis.com/forum/private-equity/software-lbo-model…</a">Software LBO Models for Practice - https://www.wallstreetoasis.com/forum/private-equity/lbo-modeling-for-s…</a">LBO modeling for software companies

Best of luck in your search and practice!
