In a first step, we will focus in particular on the following points:

  • Enterprise Value

These points are often misunderstood or overlooked by candidates. Therefore, we will go in enough detail for you to feel comfortable with using them in your technical interviews.

  • Comparable transactions
  • Comparable companies
