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). 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

Blackstone acquired a majority stake in Seves Group (Sediver's parent company) from Triton Partners. This deal concludes a 10-year turnaround by Triton, which rescued the group from near-bankruptcy in 2015. Under Triton, the group was streamlined (divesting non-core units like PPC and Vitrablok) to refocus entirely on Sediver's high-margin glass insulator business.

SEDIVER, 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 Industry & Manufacturing sector (11.2x).
