Hey everyone, had a quick technical question about multiples that may come up in interviews and I'm not sure how to answer.
1. When and why would you use P/E multiples over EV multiples like the EBITDA, EBIT, Revenue multiple.
2. Are higher multiples good or bad? (both for P/E and for EV multiples)
