Private Company Valuation

The Private Company Valuation Blueprint leverages the S&P Capital IQ Financials, Private Company Financials, Company Intelligence, Headcount Analytics, and Transactions datasets to generate a private company valuation using a multiples-based approach.

Streamline the peer generation process by systematically accessing firmographic and financial data that aid in identifying comparable public companies. Once peers are established, seamlessly estimate valuation ranges for private company targets.

This Blueprint includes:

  • S&P Capital IQ Financials: Provides global standardized financial statement data for over 150,000 companies, including over 95,000 active and inactive public companies.
  • Private Company Financials: Provides 200+ standardized financial statement items for over 12 million private companies globally. This dataset can be utilized to research prospective investments, identify merger and acquisition targets, and monitor portfolio companies.
  • Company Intelligence: A robust offering of qualitative data including a time series of company auditors, competitors' information, alternate and foreign language company names, key documents and filings, alternate address information, and more.
  • Headcount Analytics: Analyze the growth in ratio of employees and aggregated employee details by country, level, and role for over 220 million employees globally. This dataset provides a valuable way to track company growth, especially when a company's financials aren't publicly available.
  • Transactions: Provides the entire lifecycle of primary and secondary market business transactions, across public offerings, private placements, mergers & acquisitions, buybacks/repurchases, corporate restructuring, bankruptcies, spin-offs, and split-offs. Leverage the Transactions dataset to confirm a private company's pre and post-money valuation.
  • S&P Capital IQ Workbench: A web-based notebook environment that allows you to perform data analysis or build models using collaborative notebooks that support multiple languages, built-in data visualizations, and automatic versioning.
