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.

FAUCHE acquired by EMZ PARTNERS

FRANCE Facility Management / Maintenance EV 100M - 350M EUR

Context

Fauché has completed a new management buy-out (MBO) transaction in partnership with its long-standing partner EMZ Partners. This deal comes nearly three years after a previous capital restructuring and aims to support the group's continued growth while strengthening employee ownership. The distinctive feature of this transaction is the expansion of the employee shareholder base, with over 30% of employees now holding shares in the company. Following the transaction, employees collectively retain more than 80% of the capital, reflecting the group's commitment to preserving an entrepreneurial model that ties team performance to company performance. This shareholder structure is designed to incentivize employees and align their interests with those of the business. The transaction also marks a significant milestone in the group's governance, with the transfer of executive responsibilities from Patrick Zmirou to Christophe Guitton. Christophe Guitton, who joined the company in 2023 after a career in technical and energy services, will assume the presidency of the group, while Patrick Zmirou will become Chairman of the Supervisory Board. This transition ensures a progressive and organized handover of leadership while maintaining strategic continuity. The group's historical financial partners, GSO Capital, Multicroissance, and NMP Développement (investors since 2011), have also reinvested in the company, demonstrating their ongoing support for the business.

FAUCHE, which reported an EBITDA margin of LOGIN in 2023, is valued in this transaction at an EV/EBITDA multiple of LOGIN, a level to compare with the average currently observed in the Business Services sector (11.1x).
