Restructuring efforts are underway in various companies, with some utilizing safe harbor regimes to avoid insolvent trading claims. Australia's safe harbor laws, introduced in 2017, have provided directors with breathing space to rescue distressed companies. Meanwhile, firms like Ares and Harbor Capital Advisors are adapting to changes in the private credit and private equity markets, with a focus on customized investing and strategic partnerships.

"2) First IPO & Initial Acquisitions Athenahealth went public in September 2007 raising $113mm priced at an initial $569mm market capitalization. The IPO was a success oversubscribed and priced above its initial range ($18 vs $14-16 range). At the time the company offered cloud-based revenue cycle management medical billing and practice management services to independent doctors a segment still heavily fragmented and underserved. In its first years as a public company Athenahealth was a growth story. Investors bought into its SaaS model and recurring revenues and the stock surged reaching a"

"3) Elliott Mgmt Looks Closer By 2017 the skepticism had turned into an opportunity for Elliott Management. Paul Singers hedge fund took a XXX% stake in May sending Athenahealths stock up XX% in a single day. Elliotts thesis was clear: Athenahealth was underperforming burdened by costs and failing to capture its full market opportunity. The company was a prime candidate for either a sale or a leveraged buyout. Jonathan Bush tried to resist. In October 2017 Athenahealth cut X% of its workforce closed offices and sold the company jet in a bid to show seriousness about operational discipline. At"

"7) Exit In February 2022 Elliott and Veritas sold Athenahealth to Bain Capital and Hellman & Friedman for $17bn. Veritas and Elliott retained minority stakes alongside new co-investors GIC and Abu Dhabi Investment Authority. The $17bn price tag marked one of the largest healthcare IT buyouts ever and a dramatic vindication of Elliotts activist-turned-owner playbook. To fund the deal Bain and H&F raised a $9.3bn debt package including $6.9bn in leveraged loans priced at XXX basis points over SOFR. The structure implied a loan-to-value of XX% more conservative than the 2018 financing but still"

"1) Factoring Basics Factoring is a form of financing that allows companies to convert their accounts receivable into immediate cash. Traditionally when a company sells goods or services it issues an invoice to its customer which is often not paid for thirty sixty or even ninety days. Instead of waiting for the cash payment some companies opt to sell the invoice to a third party known as a factor at a discount typically around XX to XX% of the receivables face value (this discount represents the fee charged by the factor). Importantly factors often wont advance the entire cash balance upfront."

"2) Dummy Example To numerically illustrate concepts well use ABC Co. as a hypothetical example. First imagine ABC Co. sells $100k worth of goods to a customer on sixty-day terms. Instead of waiting two months to collect ABC Co. sells the invoice to Factor Co. On the day of the sale Factor Co. advances XX% of the invoice or $85000 to ABC Co. When the customer eventually pays the full $100000 on day XX Factor Co. sends the remaining $15000 back to ABC Co. but subtracts its $3000 factoring fee. In total ABC Co. has collected $97000 with $85000 upfront and $12000 later with the $3000 difference"

"3) Common Factoring Structures Although the basic idea of factoring is simple facilities can be structured in several different ways depending on the borrower's needs and the factors risk tolerance: Notification vs. Non-Notification: First a factoring arrangement can be a notification or non-notification agreement. In a notification deal the customer is explicitly informed that its invoice has been sold and is directed to pay the Factor rather than the operating entity. This makes receivable collection straightforward and reduces the risk of misdirected payments. In a non-notification deal"

"The idea behind Compound is interesting I did a few consulting sessions with the team and used it myself for multiple hours and it is clear they are on the right path based on the way they are approaching the problems of using AI in finance today They are very focused on enabling users to create trusted work output with AI. In particular I really like the ability to work on Excel directly on the browser (which avoids repeated downloads and reuploads) after every prompt.

"1) The Standard Linear Model The shortest path between two points is a straight line and the way the human brain operates is no exception. Humans tend to think linearly linking causes to effects to generate logical chains that describe the world around us.

"2)A Vicious Circle This linear thought fairly describes reality but it is only a half-truth. This is because there is another half to the story: game theory predicts that Firm B will react to stem the loss of its market share. Together these half-truths link together to form a whole a vicious circle in which both firms continually lower prices to remain competitive thus destroying the profitability of their industry. Putting these things together that we have drawn a false dichotomy (division) between cause and effect Any point on the circle is both an effect of the previous cause and a cause"

"3) Cognitive Function + Soros explains that the stock market acts as a self-referential circle comprised of two connected linear logical chains. The first one is the logical chain which is not controversial. It says that reality is reflected in peoples thinking. Soros (and the rest of the economic world) believes that investors use all available information to assess the magnitude and riskiness of cash flows. Investors then discount these cash flows to the present value and buy or sell these securities in the open market accordingly. Nothing new under the sun"

A company can decide to issue equity at their inflated valuation and use that capital to generate incremental earnings that increase the fundamental value of the business.

Restructuring efforts are underway in various companies, with some utilizing safe harbor regimes to avoid insolvent trading claims. Australia's safe harbor laws, introduced in 2017, have provided directors with breathing space to rescue distressed companies. Meanwhile, firms like Ares and Harbor Capital Advisors are adapting to changes in the private credit and private equity markets, with a focus on customized investing and strategic partnerships.

"1) Factoring Basics Factoring is a form of financing that allows companies to convert their accounts receivable into immediate cash. Traditionally when a company sells goods or services it issues an invoice to its customer which is often not paid for thirty sixty or even ninety days. Instead of waiting for the cash payment some companies opt to sell the invoice to a third party known as a factor at a discount typically around XX to XX% of the receivables face value (this discount represents the fee charged by the factor). Importantly factors often wont advance the entire cash balance upfront."

"2) Dummy Example To numerically illustrate concepts well use ABC Co. as a hypothetical example. First imagine ABC Co. sells $100k worth of goods to a customer on sixty-day terms. Instead of waiting two months to collect ABC Co. sells the invoice to Factor Co. On the day of the sale Factor Co. advances XX% of the invoice or $85000 to ABC Co. When the customer eventually pays the full $100000 on day XX Factor Co. sends the remaining $15000 back to ABC Co. but subtracts its $3000 factoring fee. In total ABC Co. has collected $97000 with $85000 upfront and $12000 later with the $3000 difference"

"3) Common Factoring Structures Although the basic idea of factoring is simple facilities can be structured in several different ways depending on the borrower's needs and the factors risk tolerance: Notification vs. Non-Notification: First a factoring arrangement can be a notification or non-notification agreement. In a notification deal the customer is explicitly informed that its invoice has been sold and is directed to pay the Factor rather than the operating entity. This makes receivable collection straightforward and reduces the risk of misdirected payments. In a non-notification deal"
