I would like to know why in a trading comps analysis, the metric used to estimate the Enterprise Value (either EBITDA, EBIT or Revenue) is projected, instead of using that of the last 12 months. Is it the same for the P/E ratio? What about transaction comps, do they use projected metrics as well?
Thanks in advance.
