Restructuring / turnaround cases

Hi there,

• Pressing Parts Problems in the Ross casebook is perfect (turnaround AND P&L)
• Little Bud Co in Ross is also good
• Great Burger in Stern has a good P&L + balance sheet.
• China Outsourcing Op in Wharton comes close

Here's some helpful reading: https://www.preplounge.com/en/case-interview-basics/business-concept-library/common-terms-of-business/balance-sheet

Hi,

I interviewed for the value creation team of one of the largest global PE shops. It wasn't a turnaround focused case but there was also P&L analysis. 

Happy to share a couple of tips on how to approach interview questions like that - just drop me a dm!

Hi there!

Lots of great answers below already. 

Don't assume though that this is exactly the case that you should be practising for. 

It could be anything.

Sharing with you a few cases based on recent real MBB interviews. They contain detailed interviewer notes so they should come in handy:
