Our support services sector team combines an extensive range of experience across the consulting, recruitment, aviation, warehousing, transport, freight, rolling stock and ports industries.
Members of our advisory team have worked in an operational, management or advisory capacity for a wide variety of companies in this broad sector, including:
1. The Enterprise Value to EBITDA* multiples on which comparable listed companies are trading
2. The multiple of EBITDA paid by acquirers of comparable businesses
The average multiple of EBITDA paid globally in support services transactions has fluctuated somewhat over the past few years. It currently stands at 13.1x. When reviewing these multiples we break out businesses in the range $5-150m, as they tend to have unique attributes which affect their valuation. Smaller businesses have generally been sold on lower multiples.
3. The volume of M&A transactions and acquisitions
