  • Summary

  • In this episode of The Lazy CEO Podcast, host Jim Schleckser interviews Adam Coffey, a seasoned CEO, board member, best-selling author, and speaker with extensive experience in private equity, particularly in the context of exits and ownership. Coffey, who has led the acquisition of 58 companies and generated over $2.5 billion in exits, shares insights from his career, which includes building three national companies under nine different private equity sponsors.

    The conversation delves into the workings of private equity from a CEO’s perspective, explaining how private equity firms operate, including their typical 10-year fund life, the 2% management fee, and the 20% profit share. Coffey explains the concept of arbitrage, where small companies are acquired at lower multiples and later sold as part of larger entities at higher multiples, generating significant returns.
