Now in its 3rd edition, Valuation for M&A: Building and Measuring Private Company Value lays out the steps for measuring and managing value creation in non-publicly traded entities. The book, by Chris Mellen and Frank Evans, gives insights on the optimum strategy to enhance both market value and strategic value and maximize return on investment. The book focuses on private companies in the lower end of the middle market (i.e., those generating between $3 million and $250 million in value).

Extra: Listen to Mellen discuss the concepts in this book in a BVR webinar, Valuation for M&A, today (May 23) from 10:00 a.m.-11:40 a.m. PT/1:00 p.m.-2:40 p.m. ET.
