Shout out to Ted for today's episode discussion: structuring the deal.
Now, we've covered certain aspects of deals but this time, we're going to give our thoughts on Ted's questions.
We'll begin by addressing the importance of upfront deal assessments, emphasizing the pitfalls of relying heavily on add-backs and the necessity of ensuring deal viability through initial reviews.
Then, we'll transition into a discussion about scrutinizing projections, with a focus on character issues that can arise from unrealistic assumptions. From ensuring borrowers have relevant industry experience to managing dynamic tensions between the BDO and credit teams, the hosts provide astute advice on navigating complex financing landscapes.
Thank you again, Ted. And if you have questions or suggestions for topics, send us an email at TheBDOShow@ArtofSBA.com
