INDUSTRY SECTOR - SOFTWARE

 

Epsilon Research covers the M&A transactions for the "Software" industry, which includes:

  • Business Software
  • Telecom software
  • Integrated software
  • Videogame and software (consumer market) 

 

Our analysts publish transaction multiples reports for private company M&A deals (announced 2004 onwards).

Each report presents detailed information on the deal value, structure and rationale, the target's activity, history and financial information; it includes the calculation of the key historic and current multiples: enterprise value over sales (EV/S), EBITDA (EV/EBITDA), or EBIT (EV/EBIT), P/E and Price to Book. All information sources are systematically given and company financials are carefully verified and restated if needed.

 

The reports are a unique source of information to have a comparable metric for the valuation of a private company, establish the "market value" of an investment or private equity investment portfolios.

 

The deal reports are published in Epsilon's EMAT database.
