Beckway Insights: 𝗠𝗮𝘅𝗶𝗺𝗶𝘇𝗶𝗻𝗴 𝗩𝗮𝗹𝘂𝗲 𝗶𝗻 𝘁𝗵𝗲 𝗟𝗮𝘁𝗲 𝗛𝗼𝗹𝗱 𝗣𝗲𝗿𝗶𝗼𝗱

As private equity firms strive to meet internal rate of return (IRR) targets, the challenge of driving meaningful improvements intensifies, especially in years five, six, or seven of the hold period. With add-on acquisitions slowing down, managers are re-examining organic opportunities. However, many of the “low hanging fruit” have already been realized early on.

At Beckway, we’ve been engaged in several late-hold transformations this year, focusing on rapid, impactful changes within an 8–10-week deep dive. Our improvement playbook often includes organizational design, procurement, scheduling optimization, and lean methodologies.

The result? Sellers benefit from higher EBITDA and a stronger exit multiple, ensuring a compelling IRR and valuation. For more information, contact Beckway’s Transformation Practice Lead, Rich Mozeleski.
