Not really, that rule of thumb is that if you can grow EBITDA at higher percentage than the EBITDA multiple you bought at, thing will just work out fine (e.g. buy at 20x need 20% cagr on earning over the next 5 years)
Enjoy the money and the carried interest loophole while it lasts. Community Health Systems? Dex Media? I’m not one of the fools that will buy it. Maybe it helps you sleep at night or whatever but if rates continue to spike, all the trash adjusted EBITDA nonsense will all die and you guys will lose your shirts.
