A lbo model should be helpful. You probably won't be expected to know it flat but if you can do one then Lev Fin modeling should be OK. Case study will probably include the relevant facts of an acquisition. Would also reccomed knowing how to do a EV and DCF. Good luck .
I work in LevFin as an associate.
It's quite standard for us to throw a typical PE-style case study to candidates - i.e. build a full lbo model from scratch based on K/Q, etc, including returns analysis and valuation. The focus, however, will be on credit analysis, depending on if the leverage is cash flow or asset based. Lastly, someone who's able to model debt schedule well - e.g. ability to handle multiple tranches of debt incl. cash flow waterfall, PIK instruments, equity components/warrants, holdco/opco, etc stands out.
I assume it'll be an lbo model as well. I will need to walk them through it - what are some questions they will ask?
Can you elaborate on credit analysis?
