## Overview

Investment Banking: Valuation, Leveraged Buyouts, and Mergers & Acquisitions by Rosenbaum and Pearl is a definitive, practitioner-written guide that demystifies the core valuation methodologies used on Wall Street. Covering comparable companies, precedent transactions, discounted cash flow, and leveraged buyout analysis, this book offers a step-by-step approach to mastering M&A, IPOs, restructurings, and investment decisions. Ideal for professionals seeking a solid technical foundation and practical judgment skills, it’s a top-rated resource for advancing careers in investment banking and private equity.

## Description

In the constantly evolving world of finance, a solid technical foundation is an essential tool for success. Due to the fast–paced nature of this world, however, no one has been able to take the time to properly codify the lifeblood of the corporate financier’s work—namely, valuation. Rosenbaum and Pearl have responded to this need by writing the book that they wish had existed when they were trying to break into Wall Street. Investment Banking: Valuation, Leveraged Buyouts, and Mergers & Acquisitions is a highly accessible and authoritative book that focuses on the primary valuation methodologies currently used on Wall Street—comparable companies, precedent transactions, DCF, and LBO analysis. These methodologies are used to determine valuation for public and private companies within the context of M&A transactions, LBOs, IPOs, restructurings, and investment decisions. Using a step–by–step how–to approach for each methodology, the authors build a chronological knowledge base and define key terms, financial concepts, and processes throughout the book. They also provide a comprehensive overview of the fundamentals of LBOs and an organized M&A sale process. In the aftermath of the subprime mortgage crisis and ensuing credit crunch, the world of finance is returning to the fundamentals of valuation and critical due diligence. This involves the use of more realistic assumptions governing approach to risk as well as a wide range of value drivers. While valuation has always involved a great deal of “art” in addition to time–tested “science,” the artistry is perpetually evolving in accordance with market developments and conditions. In this sense, this book is particularly topical—in addition to detailing the technical fundamentals behind valuation, the authors infuse practical judgment skills and perspective to help guide the science.

Review: Excellent. Exactly what I needed. Well written and thorough. - The content is presented well and covers the areas in detail while maintaining a good flow. I needed this to help with a potential transfer from the sales and trading side of IB to M&A/Lev Fin and hopefully to PE. The feedback I have received so far from practitioners is good and my preparation has centered mainly on this book. I therefore see it as a good buy for someone with no experience in the specific area; however, I can also see myself continuing to use it as a helpful reference point if I make the move and progress in the industry.
Review: The best book on Investment Banking out there! - Finally, a book written by practitioners that is grounded in theory. I have been working in Investment Banking without any 'formal' accounting or finance training, this book has proved invaluable! Rosenbaum and Pearl have got this one right, clear and straight to the point, no messing about. If you had to pick one book on IB out of the hundreds available on desertcart, pick this one!

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐ Excellent start for demystifying Financial Modelling
*by R***I on 18 June 2012*

Working in the financial markets, I felt it necessary to learn about the process and mechanics of modelling so that I would be comfortable in digging through those models developed by Analysts to better form my own opinions on particular stocks of interest. I do have some academic Accounting experience (several modules as part of an undergrad in Economics) but feel that previous accounting knowledge is not a pre-requisite to begin modelling; as long as one acknowledges their early attempts will likely have little practical value as the 'art' side of accounting (and part where experience is vital) is really where the skill/ value of an analyst comes in. Having worked through the book, and since that done some of my own modelling, it has proved to be an excellent introduction to this little known to outsiders skill-set. The chapters are well thought out, with references throughout the book and the authors' reasoning is nearly always clearly communicated. That being said, my first model (a DCF) was still very tough. It required trawling through book, constantly scribbling questions down, using the Excel spreadsheet ("Add comment" quickly became my favourite function within Excel for both my reasoning of the value, the source [as the book says to do] but also for my myriad of questions of how to find the fig., work it out etc. etc.) Even with this handbook it took many hours. However, after a few weeks I finished up with a sensible Equity Valuation of my co. I should add that I am lucky to have a couple of friends who are analysts, and were a great help on those questions that really stumped me. Without them the process would have been significantly tougher as for all the uses of the internet, very specific accounting questions are still hard to get valuable answers to. Could the book have had even more detail/ depth? I guess so, but that would defy the point of it being an Introduction, and could easily have meant it was fleshed out to a 700 page behemoth. Add to that the fact each person will always have their own questions as getting to grips with modelling/ learning in general is such a personal process. I would add that the book is aimed at valuing both listed co.'s and private co.'s. For my needs, I will be modelling listed co.'s and comparing to the street's consensus so many of the steps are actually unecessary as there's more information available - whether that be other analysts research, co.'s IR, Annual Reports etc. so developing these models doesn't have to be quite as painful a process as it first seems. Lastly, the template spreadsheets are a huge help in getting one started. While you're final piece probably won't look exactly like the author's/ you may have to alter some of the functions/ draw values from different parts of the Income Statement (as the co. may focus on different Earnings values such as EBITDA or NPAT etc.) it was a crucial part of seeing how analysts build their models in practice and made something that may have been overwhelming feel bite-size. All in, an extremely valuable read and reference book moving forward. It alone won't make you a modelling maestro, but if you use this in conjunction with a mentor or two whom you can turn to where you have specific questions, it will be a hugely valuable and rewarding experience.
