FinModelAI LBO Pro is a professional, reusable Excel template built to help you evaluate leveraged buyouts (LBOs) quickly, consistently, and with confidence—without rebuilding a model from scratch for every deal.
What you get is a clean, fully linked LBO workflow that takes you from a small set of deal and operating inputs to clear outputs (returns, credit metrics, sensitivities, scenarios, and a dashboard). The file includes 12 worksheets, 400+ formulas, and 7 charts, designed to be easy to audit and customize.
WORKBOOK STRUCTURE (12 TABS)
1) START HERE – quick guide, workflow, and modeling conventions
2) Sources & Uses – purchase price, fees, funding mix, and a “balanced” check
3) Assumptions – centralized input hub for key deal and operating drivers
4) Transaction – entry valuation, structure, and timing
5) Operating Model – core projections and operating drivers
6) Debt Schedule – debt roll-forward and repayment mechanics over the hold period
7) Credit Metrics – leverage/coverage outputs plus covenant-style checks
8) Returns – equity returns including IRR and MOIC
9) Sensitivity – two-way tables (entry/exit multiples) to stress-test outcomes
10) Dashboard – visual deal summary with KPIs and charts for fast review
11) Documentation – model notes and structure
12) Scenarios – Base / Upside / Downside structure with a supporting chart
WHAT YOU CAN DO WITH THIS MODEL
– Build a complete base case from key inputs (entry assumptions, leverage, and operating drivers)
– See how financing flows through the Debt Schedule (balances over time, paydown path, remaining debt at exit)
– Monitor lender-style statistics in Credit Metrics (leverage and coverage ratios, plus pass/fail checks)
– Evaluate sponsor returns in Returns (IRR and MOIC) and understand the bridge from exit value to equity value
– Stress-test the deal using Sensitivity (two-way tables) and Scenarios (Base/Upside/Downside)
– Present results instantly using the Dashboard (KPIs + charts)
