Does anyone have any supporting Reports for the current levels of Multiples for businesses acquired in the UK and pref with a broad industry range included. Aware its also Rev & EBITDA scale dependant but if that's included as well even better. I'm sure I've heard about such report in the US and if someone has a link for that as well, that would be helpful . Many thanks. Mark

hey so assuming you are looking for a free resource the best thing out there is probably BDO's PCPI reports (Private Company Price Index)... I would think of it as "directional", limited by what is disclosed on public record etc...

https://www.bdo.co.uk/en-gb/microsites/deal-advisory-insights/reports/private-company-price-index-(pcpi)

There are specific firms publishing reports on this like BVB ( https://www.bvbenchmarks.com/bvb-insights-data-and-analysis-on-uk-private-company-multiples-2023 ) and MarktoMarket ( https://marktomarket.io/uk-valuation-indices/ ) but they are fairly expensive by looks of it.
