Hi,

I'm considering buying a hosting company and I'd like to get a sense of the multiple of earnings that small (100 or so clients), non-public companies tend to go for. I know that EBITDA is not the only thing to consider, that an analysis of the income statements is necessary and that multiples are not necessarily accurate predictors of a company's true value but I need a starting point.

Any help or resources you can point me to would be appreciated.

Thanks!
