Debt-Driven Investment Strategy in Business Acquisitions
LBO (Leveraged Buyout) is an acquisition strategy where a company is purchased primarily using borrowed funds, with the assets and future cash flows of the target company often used as collateral. This approach allows investors to acquire firms with a relatively small amount of equity while aiming to enhance returns through operational improvements and financial restructuring. The success of such transactions depends on stable cash flows, efficient cost management, and favorable market conditions. It is commonly used by private equity firms for mature businesses with predictable earnings.
