They will explain why they selected these companies and how they fit together in their fund. They will then explain how they value these companies and why they think they can do better with them. They will show the risk management strategy chosen for this combination of companies. They will take one company and describe how they will add value over the next 5 years of ownership. They will then explain the most likely exit strategy for this company and how they approach this.
