RSM International Conference, Singapore 2007 RSM McGladrey Inc. and the Private Equity Industry Jeff Johnson, Executive Managing Director Tom Dobosenski, Executive Vice-President, Business Consulting

RSM International Conference, Singapore 2007 Agenda Overview of the PEG market TSS practice in the states PEG international strategies and activities Questions

RSM International Conference, Singapore 2007 United States market definition – summary Number of Targeted Private Equity Firms Portfolio Holdings (Number of Companies) Summary – U.S.1,2377,422 PEG Clients – RSM McGladrey

RSM International Conference, Singapore 2007 Market definition

RSM International Conference, Singapore 2007 Private equity groups (PEGs): Key points about the market PEGs are national in scope (usually concentrated in a geography) –Many have multiple deal sourcing and deal making locations. –Owned or targeted portfolio companies are located throughout the U.S. and internationally. –Example clients: –American Capital – eight U.S. and two international offices; 160 portfolio companies. –Audax Private Equity – two U.S. offices; 34 transactions over two years; portfolio companies across the country.

RSM International Conference, Singapore 2007 PEGs: Key points about the market Significant flow of capital into the private equity space — in conjunction with the PEG national/international “make money wherever you can” philosophy — creates a widely dispersed market opportunity. Size, complexity and geographic dispersion of the market sector demands a planned and sophisticated level of relationship management and coordination. While transaction support services (TSS) and due diligence is the typical service line entry into a private equity entity, traditional firm services generate another two to three times the annual revenue developed by TSS.

RSM International Conference, Singapore 2007 PEGs: Key points about the market PEG corporate dealmakers and portfolio managers want to be served seamlessly through a key “relationship point” — addressing both service needs and the ability to resolve issues quickly and efficiently. –Flexibility in our relationship management and service delivery processes is important, as many PEGs have unique desires and expectations on how they want to be served. –Additionally, it is critical to have dedicated audit and tax expertise, such as purchase accounting and deal structure tax capabilities, in proximity to portfolio company locations.

RSM International Conference, Singapore 2007 PEGs: Key points about the market Because the private equity sector is cyclical, continued growth is dependent upon our ability to develop and support non-traditional services beyond TSS, audit and tax. –A Corporate Analytics Practice — including M&A, reverse due diligence, corporate finance and turnaround services — leverages the skills of many TSS personnel and allows the firm to maintain core personnel, market share and profitability during an economic downturn. –Requires investment, structure decisions, business plan development, methodology design and rollout and staffing plans.

RSM International Conference, Singapore 2007 PEGs: Key points about the market Client service personnel indicate the keys to capture market share include: –Treating the PEG entity as a national/international organization without regard to internal firm boundaries. –Nationally-focused practice with international capabilities. –Dedicated resources (subject matter expertise). –Ability to leverage resources and knowledge — including industry expertise — across the firm. –Speed to market – in the context of service delivery.

RSM International Conference, Singapore 2007 PEGs: Key points about the market –Rapid response to service needs and timelines. –Dedicated teams of professionals in TSS, audit and tax. –Consistent work product from all locations including international. –Audit and tax providers for the portfolio companies who know the technical aspects and capital structure issues that are common in the PEG arena. –Middle-market knowledge and expertise can be a differentiator. –The PEG must feel that they are the ultimate client.

RSM International Conference, Singapore 2007 PEGs: Key points about the market Some private equity corporate dealmakers show high interest in sourcing deals. –Provides entrée to key decision makers and opens a relationship- based dialogue. –Generates opportunities and revenue in TSS and traditional services at both the PEG and portfolio companies. –Leveraging RSM EquiCo for this.

RSM International Conference, Singapore 2007 PEG mission and service line diagram “Our Pitch and our Brand”“Market Entry Points” Private Equity Group (PEG) Established Fund buys companies, owns and operates portfolio companies Require four types of services: Fund services Transaction services Portfolio services Other services Transaction Support Services (TSS) The transaction support team - Reviews the transaction details Advises on the deal Assists in acquisition matters as needed These services are primarily quality of earnings oriented and are provided by transaction support specialists and tax specialists. (An integrated service line strategy)

RSM International Conference, Singapore 2007 How do we add value? Detailed analysis of the business –Identify the drivers and various trends in the business in a short amount of time –Bridge the gap between historical and projected operating results Deal issues and breakers –TSS professionals are skilled at determining which issues are important to the buyer –Examples: revenue recognition, changes in accounting, margin sustainability, accrual reversals, customer analysis

RSM International Conference, Singapore 2007 How do we add value? Quality of earnings –Validate EBITDA on a “normalized” basis –Examples: non-recurring items, lack of accruals, out of period adjustments, accounting adjustments, run-rate –Most transactions valued on multiple of EBITDA Quality of net assets –Assess how adjustments to EBITDA impact the balance sheet –Many purchase agreements include tangible net worth criteria

RSM International Conference, Singapore 2007 How do we add value? Working capital –Assess historical fluctuations in working capital levels due to seasonality and other factors –Assist client negotiations and establish the estimated working capital as of the closing date –Working capital adjustments are dollar for dollar adjustments based on a closing balance sheet

RSM International Conference, Singapore 2007 Targeting PEGs is fundamental to our success – focus is power – our PEG criteria Committed fund, active pledge fund, or active family office Fund size between $100 million and $1 billion Target company size of $20 million to $500 million Active transaction history – three to four acquisitions annually Propensity to use RSM McGladrey Portfolio consistent with firm and practice strengths

RSM International Conference, Singapore 2007 Principles of serving the PEG industry: Basic elements and organizational assumptions Relationship management – one point of contact Knowledge of who owns the PEG and how it is managed Knowledge of what a PEG owns (associated portfolio companies) penetration of the PEGKnowledge of the service opportunities from every angle – penetration of the PEG Earning the right to advance, developing a PEG service plan

RSM International Conference, Singapore 2007 TSS metrics Our targeted goals 1.Number of TSS projects 2.Average size 3.Realized rate 4.Repeat TSS engagements (4 to 1) 5.Number of PEGs added and what we are doing for them 6.RSM McGladrey EUs engaged (as measured by No. 1 and No. 5) 7.RSM McGladrey EUs’ effectiveness –Integration –Penetration –Cooperation

RSM International Conference, Singapore 2007 TSS metrics Our targeted goals (continued) 8.People –Personnel added (net of losses) –Turnover (below firm average) –Utilization 9.Customer satisfaction reports – all PEG services

RSM International Conference, Singapore 2007 PEG international strategies Follow the flow of investment money to and from U.S. and international locations using knowledge of transactions affecting both client base and PEG activity. – Identify fit with PEGs who want our approach. Organize our delivery system in center of excellence format (as required by clients). Capitalize on our uniform delivery methodology and jointly build the TSS team, activity and quality service. Focus the U.S. team on those who have experience to build the center of excellence in international methods and services. Capitalize on a more uniform approach to a go-to-market philosophy that incorporates the multiple entry points of service for a PEG and relationship management ($1 of transaction revenue for $3 to $5 of other PEG work).

RSM International Conference, Singapore 2007 PEG international activities Make available and conduct similar methodology training courses for both technical and some methodology. RSM McGladrey will coordinate with RSM International on training. Coordinate center of excellence locations on sales and service. Continue to build resources for TSS support – the U.S. has initiated a service building plan and will share this result, activity and successful methodology. Develop international metrics like the U.S. is currently doing for each of its PEG markets. Assistance from Bob Jensen as required.

RSM International Conference, Singapore 2007 PEG international activities Build TSS activity and relationships on a few internationally-active PEGs where we already have transactions and have proved our service promise (Audax). Funnel all client activity through a limited number of TSS partners so that we begin with high-quality deliverables and services. Key – John Schmidt, Bill Spizman and Michael Grossman will be the identified transaction active funnels. Provide international community with RSM McGladrey go-to-market PEG materials so they can be modified for the specific locations. Bob Jensen will participate in the go-to-market synergies and pull together market active teams on a center of excellence basis.
