Funnily I literally just posted detailed info on valuations fast-growing SaaS businesses here - https://www.searchfunder.com/post/valuating-new-and-fast-growing-tech-company. If your prospect isn't fast-growing by those criteria then an EBIDTA multiple would be appropriate and I can share thoughts on that too, lmk!

Over in DealStats (www.bvresources.com/dealstats), the current median selling price/EBITDA is 7x for private-to-private transactions of profitable software companies (the harmonic mean is 5.6X and the weighted harmonic mean is 6.8X).
