URGENT: Interview Help Please!

Doing a presentation on a recent public M&A transaction (announced in Nov-20)

I plan to spend a few mins on initial thoughts on the purchase price. Intend to look at the public comps of the target:

Public comparable comps - compare EV/LTM EBITDA, EV/LTM Revenue and NTM P/E of the target today vs multiples of the peer universe comps.

But, I don't see how I can speak about the public comps to given an idea of whether the purchase price was fair/undervalued/overvalued as it gives an idea to the valuation of the company, but is not linked to the actual M&A deal in any way. Would really appreciate some help with this! Also, should I also do a quick high-level DCF to see whether the purchase price was fair?

Thank you!!!
