In this Buy-Side Breakdown, *M&A Zing* hosts *Alfie Lambert* and *Gareth Hawkins* analyse a real listing: three freehold nurseries in North-West England generating £1.26 million revenue and £284 k EBITDA. They explore sector roll-ups, Ofsted ratings, and the perennial PropCo-vs-OpCo dilemma—should you buy the property or lease it back from the seller? Growth levers range from capacity expansion and premium pricing to holiday-club diversification, while risk factors include staff-ratio compliance and government funding changes. Before diving in, the duo runs through European search-fund news—Spanish deals, Moonbase Capital’s latest *Search Fund Squared*, and more. By the end, both hosts cast a confident *BUY* vote, but invite listeners to share their own verdict. If you’re eyeing your first acquisition—or adding the next bolt-on to a growing hold-co—tune in for practical insights on childcare valuations, diligence check-lists, and deal structuring.
