1. Closed M&A Transactions
Primary source: BVR gathers data from actual closed middle-market private company deals, focusing on acquisition multiples, transaction details, and financial metrics largely reported by valuation and investment banking firms. These are transactions where deal specifics—like EBITDA multiples, deal structures, and seller business data—are available from deal documents or disclosed in filings or press.
2. Analyst Review & Curation
BVR’s team, under leadership like Adam Manson, reviews each incoming transaction for accuracy, completeness, and comparability. Data is standardized across industries and deal types, ensuring quality and usability by business valuation professionals.
3. Contribution by Professionals
Many entries are directly submitted by participant professionals—valuators, appraisers, deal advisors—who share anonymized transaction details with BVR. This peer-contributed model ensures the platform continuously reflects real-world, practitioner-level benchmarks.
4. Wide Industry & Deal-Type Coverage
BVR’s benchmarking platform includes 2,000+ private business transactions across a variety of industries and sizes. With this scale, users can perform customized screenings—filtering by size, industry, deal structure—to find truly comparable business financials and multiples.
