This case is a follow-on to the case, “Acumen Fund: Valuing a Social Venture” (#1428788). In this case, Acumen Fund, a social venture capital fund, is performing a due diligence on Ziqitza Healthcare Limited (ZHL), a for-profit ambulance company in India. The case involves assessing ZHL’s business model, calculating firm value, and drafting an initial term sheet. This case modifies some of the assumptions in the original case and challenges students to use real options to value the ambulance venture. The original case is needed to understand this case.
