Each episode dissects a specific transaction, from sourcing to exit, using real numbers, term sheets, and public filings. The show serves founders weighing an offer, analysts building models, and investors tracking the industry. Expect critical discussions on valuation multiples, earnouts, debt covenants, and the cultural friction between PE operators and portfolio-company management. Lucas, a journalist with a decade covering dealmaking, guides the numbers; Luna, an engaged interlocutor, presses on execution risk and founder psychology. Together they ask: What separates a value-destroying roll-up from a platform that compounds for a decade? No hype, no jargon — just the tradecraft of buying and scaling businesses. #PrivateEquity #LBO #RollUp #BuyAndBuild #PE #DueDiligence #Valuation #MergersAndAcquisitions #FamilyBusinessExit #SearchFund #EBITDA #DealSourcing #SMB #BusinessAcquisition #FexingoBusiness #BusinessPodcast #Finance #Podcast Keep every episode free: buymeacoffee.com/fexingo","last_synced_at":"2026-07-19T04:18:12.773861+00:00","page_url":"https://stenobird.com/podcast/the-buyout-show-with-fexingo-private-equity-roll-ups-and-business-acquisitions-7871630"},"episode":{"title":"How Private Equity Is Buying Up Home Care Agencies","slug":"how-private-equity-is-buying-up-home-care-agencies","published_at":"2026-07-08T04:44:12+00:00","page_url":"https://stenobird.com/podcast/the-buyout-show-with-fexingo-private-equity-roll-ups-and-business-acquisitions-7871630/how-private-equity-is-buying-up-home-care-agencies","show_page_url":"https://stenobird.com/podcast/the-buyout-show-with-fexingo-private-equity-roll-ups-and-business-acquisitions-7871630","url":"https://audio.fexingo.com/business/the-buyout-show/episode-0100.mp3","audio_url":"https://audio.fexingo.com/business/the-buyout-show/episode-0100.mp3","summary":"Episode 100 of The Buyout Show explores the wave of private equity acquisitions sweeping the home care industry. Lucas and Luna break down why PE firms are targeting agencies that provide in-home health aides, personal care, and dementia support. Using the example of a mid-sized regional agency acquired by a search fund backed by a family office, they discuss the operational playbook: centralizing scheduling software, standardizing caregiver training, and layering on private-pay services like companion care. They also examine the tensions—higher caregiver turnover under cost pressure, regulatory risk from state Medicaid reimbursement changes, and the cultural friction between PE efficiency and caregiving relationships. Specific numbers include the 7.5% annual industry growth rate, average EBITDA multiples of 8 to 10 times, and how a roll-up of 15 agencies can cut back-office costs by 30 percent. The episode closes with the question of whether the model can deliver quality outcomes at scale. #PrivateEquity #HomeCare #RollUps #AgingPopulation #Medicaid #EBITDA #CaregiverTurnover #SearchFund #FamilyOffice #InHomeCare #HealthcareInvesting #BusinessAcquisition #DealRoom #FexingoBusiness #BusinessPodcast #Episode100 #OperationalPlaybook #HealthAides Keep every episode free: buymeacoffee.com/fexingo","meta_description":"Episode 100 of The Buyout Show explores the wave of private equity acquisitions sweeping the home care industry.
