Using the LBO model calculate FY2025 interest expense and the corresponding FY2025 Adj. EBITDA / Interest Coverage ratio based on the capital structure sized at 4.5x entry gross leverage (Gross Debt / FY2024 Adj. EBITDA). Assume the transaction closes in FY2024 and the sponsor holds the asset through the 2030E exit. Round the dollar values to whole numbers and multiples to one decimal point. Respond here with a short message.
