Descriptions
M&A Finance: Valuation and Deal Design Specialization, This comprehensive specialization equips you with the essential skills to measure value creation, value businesses, and design M&A deals that hold up under real-world assumptions. You will begin with core corporate finance principles, learning to use financial statements to build ratios, assess financial health, forecast cash flows, and manage short- and long-term liquidity. The curriculum then advances to valuation and investment decision tools, enabling you to apply discount rates, evaluate risk and uncertainty, and assess performance to determine whether a project or acquisition creates shareholder value.
Next, you will dive into the finance of mergers and acquisitions, focusing on how to value and price deals while choosing the optimal financing mix. You will examine how leverage changes the cost of capital and affects stock prices, and how transactions shift a company’s capital structure. Working with major deal types, including strategic M&A, private equity leveraged buyouts (LBOs), and restructuring transactions such as spinoffs and asset transfers, you will apply a consistent set of valuation and decision frameworks. By the end of this program, you will be able to build ratio-based assessments, estimate discount rates, compute NPV, and value synergies to translate assumptions into pricing and financing decisions for different deal structures.
