comparable company scores

Friends,

My client (in "tech enabled business services" industry) is considering a particular target company to acquire. My job is to find out public comparable companies for the initial analysis and I have found about 14 comparable companies.

I used the following metrics for comparability -

1) Business similarity/compatibility (SIC codes) 2) Market Cap 3) Revenue 4) EBITDA 5) Beta

All companies including the client are US based.

What I am also doing is attaching a score based on how close the comp is to the target (for each of the metrics above) and then trying to plot it using excel charts to graphically represent it.

I have the following questions -

1) Are there any other metrics that I should be using ? 2) Are there any templates to make my work more effective and easy?

Thanks,

Vicks
