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.

What is the EV/EBITDA multiple and why is it used?

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). It is widely used in M&A and valuation because it allows for comparisons between companies with different capital structures and provides a clear view of operational profitability.

DEMATHIEU BARD acquired by BNP PARIBAS DEVELOPPEMENT, SOCIETE GENERALE CAPITAL PARTENAIRES, BTP CAPITAL, BPIFRANCE & CREDIT MUTUEL EQUITY

FRANCE Construction REV 1b - 3b EUR

Context

Demathieu Bard has completed its fifth management buy-out, a strategic transaction designed to further align company ownership with its operational leadership. The deal facilitates a significant increase in the stake held by the company's internal stakeholders. The historical management team, the group's executive board, and over 225 senior managers, alongside an employee savings fund (FCPE), now collectively own a controlling majority of the company's capital. This move solidifies management's control and is intended to foster long-term commitment and drive continued growth from within. The remaining minority stake is held by a consortium of eleven financial investors. This pool is largely composed of long-standing partners who have supported the company through previous buy-outs, demonstrating their sustained confidence in the group's strategy and performance. The consortium was also expanded to include a new investor, Crédit Agricole Régions Investissement. The transaction was financed with a senior debt package provided by a syndicate of four French banks: LCL, Crédit Agricole, BPCE, and CIC Est. This leveraged buy-out structure supports the group's capital reorganization following a period of strong top-line growth and positions it for its next strategic phase.

DEMATHIEU BARD, which reported an EBITDA margin of LOGIN in 2023, is valued in this transaction at an EV/EBITDA multiple of LOGIN.
