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 Rolling Up Self-Storage Facilities","slug":"how-private-equity-is-rolling-up-self-storage-facilities","published_at":"2026-06-08T04:35:17+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-rolling-up-self-storage-facilities","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-0038.mp3","audio_url":"https://audio.fexingo.com/business/the-buyout-show/episode-0038.mp3","summary":"Lucas and Luna dive into the quiet consolidation of the self-storage industry—worth over $45 billion in annual revenue. They examine how companies like Public Storage and Extra Space have grown through acquisition, and how private equity firms are now buying up smaller independent facilities at a record pace. Lucas breaks down the math behind the roll-up: stable cash flows, low interest coverage ratios, and the tax advantages of a REIT structure. They discuss the $22 billion merger of Extra Space and Life Storage in 2023, and what it means for mom-and-pop owners. Luna asks whether the industry is reaching saturation, and Lucas points to data showing new supply is actually slowing. The conversation also touches on the shift to climate-controlled units and the rise of mobile self-storage apps. As of June 2026, the sector remains a favorite for yield-hungry investors, but the hosts debate whether the next wave will be consolidation or fragmentation. Specific, numbers-driven, and skeptical of the hype. #SelfStorage #PrivateEquity #RollUps #PublicStorage #ExtraSpace #LifeStorage #REIT #BusinessAcquisitions #Consolidation #RealEstate #StorageIndustry #MomAndPop #YieldInvesting #ClimateControlled #MobileStorage #BusinessPodcast #FexingoBusiness #TheBuyoutShow Keep every episode free: buymeacoffee.com/fexingo","meta_description":"Lucas and Luna dive into the quiet consolidation of the self-storage industry—worth over $45 billion in annual revenue.
