Acquisition Financing Preparation Software for Buy-Side Deal Teams
Acquisition financing preparation requires assembling a comprehensive lender package — historical financials, adjusted EBITDA, sources and uses, QoE summary, covenant analysis, and deal rationale — on an accelerated timeline. InvestmentBank.com structures this process into a single workflow, so deal teams can build, track, and review every lender package component without losing items across email threads and shared drives.
The debt capacity module takes normalized EBITDA inputs and generates a structured leverage analysis — total debt capacity at various multiple assumptions, pro forma interest coverage, and fixed charge coverage — organized as a lender-facing exhibit. Covenant considerations are captured in a separate tracker with fields for leverage covenants, interest coverage floors, and other standard debt maintenance metrics.
InvestmentBank.com does not arrange financing, broker loans, or act as a placement agent. It is preparation software that helps deal teams organize materials before engaging lenders and their advisers. All AI-assisted drafts are for internal workflow use and require human review by qualified professionals before any external distribution.

Frequently asked questions
Does InvestmentBank.com arrange debt financing for acquisitions?
No. InvestmentBank.com does not arrange financing, broker loans, or act as a placement agent. It is preparation software that helps deal teams organize lender packages, debt capacity analyses, and diligence checklists so that your advisers can engage lenders on a well-prepared basis.
What is the QoE summary inputs module?
The QoE (Quality of Earnings) inputs module helps organize the schedules and addbacks that support a normalized EBITDA calculation. It structures one-time items, non-recurring expenses, and management addback claims into a standard format that lenders expect in a financing package. The platform does not perform a QoE analysis — it organizes the inputs for your accounting advisers to review.
How are covenant considerations tracked in the workflow?
The covenant tracker captures standard maintenance covenants — leverage ratio, interest coverage, fixed charge coverage, and liquidity minimums — alongside the target company s current financial metrics. Deal teams can model proposed covenant levels against historical performance to identify potential pressure points before lender negotiations.
Can I use this workflow for refinancing as well as acquisition financing?
Yes. While the workflow is designed around acquisition financing, the lender package, debt capacity, and covenant modules apply to refinancing situations as well. For recapitalizations and dividend recaps, see the Recapitalization Preparation workflow.
