Public takeovers offer unparalleled transparency thanks to the extensive disclosure requirements for publicly traded companies. When a public company is being taken private, the SEC mandates the filing of detailed proxy statements, such as DEFM14 forms. These filings include vital information like:
- Management Forecasts: Forward-looking projections about the company’s financial performance, prepared by the company's management team. These forecasts are typically what buyers initially receive and use as the basis for their bids, making them the most accurate numbers to consider when computing transaction multiples.
- Investment Banker Analyses: Detailed valuation models and forecasts provided by financial advisors to guide potential buyers.
This level of disclosure ensures that all stakeholders have access to key financial metrics, which provides unique insights into how deals are valued and negotiated. By focusing on public-to-private transactions, Hyperion enables users to leverage this rich, standardized data to analyze trends, assess buyer motivations, and benchmark deal terms effectively.
