What is Enterprise Value (EV)?

Enterprise Value (EV) is a measure of a company's total value, often used as a more comprehensive alternative to equity market capitalization. EV includes in its calculation the market capitalization of a company but also short-term and long-term debt as well as any cash on the company's balance sheet.

The EV/EBITDA multiple is a financial ratio that compares a company's Enterprise Value (EV) to its Earnings Before Interest, Taxes, Depreciation, and Amortization (EBITDA).

Context

This combination allows for a unified omnichannel offering including classic digital channels and advanced conversational experiences like RCS. The deal strengthens Odigo's presence in France, Benelux, Spain, and the UK through an enriched partner ecosystem. Patrick Giudicelli, Akio’s founder, will contribute to the integration as the group transitions into a European CX champion.

AKIO, which reported an EBITDA margin of LOGIN in 2024, is valued in this transaction at an EV/EBITDA multiple of LOGIN, a level to compare with the average currently observed in the TMT (Tech, Media, Telecom) sector (14.4x).
