[Accounting question] In growth equity investments, should the balance sheet not be revised as well?
Hey guys, I have a quick question that's a little basic but still confuses me.
In an LBO, the balance sheet is adjusted to reflect new capital structure due to refinancing of oldco debt and new shareholder equity. Shouldn't a growth equity investment also involve some changes to the balance sheet due to new equity being issued for cash?
Sorry for the noob question, any help would be appreciated.
Hey Straightnochaser, I'm not too sure about the answer but I think CompBanker most likely would be able to help answer this one,
Your intuition is correct
Rerum amet repellat aliquam voluptate. Voluptatem rerum quas rem consequatur fugit dolorem aliquid. Quia quia repellendus nostrum harum veniam.
Officiis sed et doloribus qui. Nihil perferendis dolore qui.
Repudiandae et laborum aut enim. Harum quia aliquam ad minima. Ut fugit voluptatem nihil autem. Illo ea animi in suscipit et.
Quas et iste rem et sapiente consequuntur esse explicabo. Qui itaque voluptas qui harum. Non sint molestiae nulla ut aut.
