In this discussion, you will read and summarize a private equity/merger case study. Consider this study as a foundation from which you can analyze the other two cases in the module resources section. Read the Private Equity Case: Merger Consolidation case study. In your initial post, address the following:
• What are the circumstances of the HBR case?
• Evaluate the physical therapy industry for potential investment opportunity by a private equity investment fund.
• Cite the advantages and disadvantages.
o Look at the proportion of health care GDP.
o Look at the outpatient PT and the proportion of yearly medical spending.
o What are the financial circumstances of our case? Explain the financial similarities, particularly with regard to EBITDA and cash flows.
o Could real option financing be used in the healthcare industry to fix it in the long term? I will also send you a word document that includes the instructions above and a PDF file for the Private Equity Case-Merger consolidations. Please let me know if you need anything else from me.
