yes...all deal-associated fees should be factored into enterprise value
Absolutely.
Fees on exit - yes.
Fees on entry - only those fees that would be payable following a decision to do the deal.
For example, consider a PE fund looking at an acquisition. It has $5m in DD costs it will need to pay advisers whether or not the deal was done.
When the PE team is preparing a investment committee paper with DCF for the deal, the $5m in costs should be excluded from the DCF because those costs are irrelevant to the decision being made. That is, the approve/reject decision has no impact on whether or not those fees will be spent, as they are sunk costs.
