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.

Context

PROMAN has completed the acquisition of the French startup Onestaff. This transaction marks the group's second major digital acquisition within a year, following the integration of the online agency Iziwork. The strategic rationale for the deal is to bridge the gap between traditional temporary staffing and the burgeoning freelance economy. By integrating Onestaff’s AI-driven matching technology and its database of 60,000 independent professionals, PROMAN can now offer corporate clients a seamless choice between temporary employment contracts and freelance service agreements. The deal is particularly significant given Onestaff's resilience, having secured its legal standing after a five-year judicial procedure, and its recent pivot to profitability. For PROMAN, the partnership provides an immediate foothold in the retail, beauty, and events sectors with a scalable, low-overhead digital model. This move highlights a broader trend among European staffing giants to "buy rather than build" digital capabilities, ensuring they remain relevant to a workforce increasingly seeking flexibility and digital-first interactions.

ONESTAFF, 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 Business Services sector (11.3x).
