7.8-9.2x EV/EBITDA for a UK industrial dyes business isn’t “cheap tuck-in” pricing - it’s a conviction bet. PHD Industrial Holdings just bought Tolbest Limited, and Dealert pegs the deal at ~$22m-$26m EV on ~$3m EBITDA (est.). At ~1.1-1.3x EV/Revenue (Dealert estimate), the multiple says the value isn’t in topline - it’s in product lines + customers you can take into new markets. Question for deal teams: is this the new normal in Specialty Chemicals - pay mid-single-digit revenue for defensible niches, then underwrite the expansion? 🧪 🔗 Full details: https://lnkd.in/e2936QjJ #MergersAndAcquisitions #PrivateEquity #UKPrivateEquity #Strategy #Chemicals
