It will also be possible to view industry data and trends broken down by revenue bands (below 2 million, between 2 to 10 million, 10-25 million, 25-50 million and over 50 million) and distinct in best and worst of Industry (Best Performer and Worst Performer).

Summary, Financial report, Index and Average

In the “Summary” section is avaible a quick overview about the industry’s trend, with a dashboard that summarizes the variations in the financial report aggregates and in the principal financial-economic indexes during the last year

Valuation: the company evaluation

Multipli e parametri

For each sector, the "Multiples and Parameters" section contains reference multiples (EV/Sales, EV/EBITDA, EV/EBIT, Price/Earning, Price/Book Value) and elements for calculating capital cost such as Beta Asset, Self-Liquidation Operations, Maturing Transactions, Reverse Transactions, BTP 15-10-5 years and Risk Premium (MRP).

Valuation

In the "Valuation" section you can calculate the enterprise value and the weighted average cost of capital (WACC) of one or more business entities. This section will allow you to combine the data in InfoValuation with the data entered by the user for an interactive and fast calculation.

Calculation of Enterprise Value

Simply select the parameter (for example: Multiple EBITDA), enter the current value of the company under review (then the company EBITDA), its net financial position, and possibly the discount factor in case of Investments that are not easily liquidated or if the enterprise being assessed is of small or medium size. The recommended discount factor is 20-30%.

Regarding sector performance for revenue bands, best-worst can be a useful reference for discounting. For example, if you were to consider a company with a certain volume of revenue and a best-in-class performance, the discount could fall into the range of less penalizing values.

Calculation of Capital Cost

The application allows you to calculate the weighted average cost of capital, a key factor for making enterprise and project decisions.

It's enough to enter the value in the E / V box, ie the percentage percentage of Equity, and the application will return the company's weighted average cost (WACC) to that financial structure.
