## Methodology

Each published multiple's own M&A advisers' reports, SaaS indices, public comps pages and Damodaran's industry tables were read through estate-fetch and stored whole (sha256 on every row). For every deal report or comps page, five questions were answered from its own words: what kind of company the multiple covers, what the multiple is measured on, eV to revenue, as stated, eV to EBITDA, as stated, the figure, in the publisher's words. Every stated answer carries the sentence it rests on, checked against the stored text; 'not stated' means the deal report or comps page read does not address the question. A published multiple with several deal reports and comps pages reads 'varies' where they disagree. 12 published multiples, 12 deal reports and comps pages.
