In response to user requests, the DealStats database now includes a new feature: Pure Play MVIC (PPMVIC) prices and multiples. The Pure Play MVIC price creates a secondary price that includes only the market value of the target’s fixed assets and total intangibles. The Pure Play MVIC multiples are the multiples calculated using the Pure Play MVIC price. The Pure Play MVIC price and PPMVIC multiples may be helpful if you have a group of comparable companies that include asset and stock sales. The Pure Play MVIC price and PPMVIC multiples may also be helpful if you have a group of asset sale transactions where some comparables include inventory or accounts receivable and some do not. You no longer need to examine the individual transactions and adjust the selling price of your comps. This is also helpful after applying the multiples to determine what needs to be added back to reach an equity value. For more details, you can watch a short video tutorial on the new features if you click here.
