Abstract

This (B) case examines the results of the HBS Impact Investment Fund student team’s diligence on Neurologic Optimal Wellness Physical Therapy (NOW PT). After examining Springfield’s demographics, anticipated PT demand, local competition, and NOW PT’s financial statements, the students realized that NOW PT would be more successful if it opened a brick-and-mortar clinic. The case appendix provides the students’ Investment Committee deck, which readers can reference as an example of a thorough due diligence process. The conclusion of the case reveals the students’ investment recommendation and its results.
