Thanks, exactly what I was looking for.

Drexel, FYI, all industries usually have a standard EBITDA multiple range.

No, most industries usually trade within a similar range-that is the idea behind comps. That range can vary quite significantly depending on market conditions, analyst expectations, and other factors.

Also, consumer products is much too wide a field for you to act like there is a standard answer, even taking in to account current conditions; if you compare LVMH with BUD, you're not exactly looking at a relevant comp.

Killed it...

 

Actually, no. In practice, many firms/groups use what they believe is the "standard or usual" multiple to get a quick feel of the valuation. While Drexel you may come up with theories and concepts for why this isn't right, many firms do this, at least at the two ibanks and HF I interned at and from talks with BB analysts.

 

I am pretty sure Drexel just owned you man. Live and learn. Consumer products is a very huge net to cast also. Most analysts break it down into more relevant categories.
