Day 11 Transaction Valuation Techniques

The Comparable Transaction Analysis or Comparable Acquisition Analysis is based on the premise that
the value of a company or an asset can be estimated by analyzing the prices paid by purchasers of ownership
interests in reported comparable acquisitions.
The analysis provides a history of selected transactions either in one particular industry or in one area
where acquired companies have relatively similar characteristics in terms of economic drivers such as
business mix, customer base, distribution channels, industry dynamics, etc.
Transaction multiples define the prices which acquirers are willing to pay for control of the target company in
the context of an acquisition transaction. By applying transaction multiples to the financial results of the
company being analyzed, it is possible to determine a range of value.
