Methodology, modular by design
Three engines are now active. Comparable Companies, Precedent Transactions and Discounted Cash Flow each produce a stand-alone report; results are reconciled in the archive.
Comparable Companies
Trading multiples vs. a curated peer set
Identify peers, standardize EV/EBITDA, P/E, EV/Revenue and P/FCF, and triangulate an implied range with full source trail.
Precedent Transactions
What strategics and sponsors have paid
Curate a universe of recent M&A transactions, calibrate multiples (inclusive of any control premium), track premium-paid analysis, and frame a transaction-based range.
Discounted Cash Flow
Intrinsic value from forecast cash flows
Build a 10-year unlevered free cash flow forecast, derive WACC from a re-levered beta and synthetic cost of debt, calibrate terminal value with the value-driver formula, and stress-test the implied equity range.
Leveraged Buyout
What a financial sponsor could pay
Solve for the entry price that delivers a target IRR under defined leverage, exit, and operating assumptions.
Triangulated sources
Financial Modeling Prep is the primary statement source, supplemented by Polygon, Finnhub and Alpha Vantage. FRED supplies the macro preamble — risk-free rates and prevailing conditions — for every report.
No invented data
When a value cannot be sourced cleanly — share options, free float, pension deficits, operating-lease present values — the report flags REVIEW, WARNING, or FAIL rather than fabricating. Source notes accompany every figure.
A document, not a dashboard
Each run produces a printable Marlowe Keynes report — cover, methodology, peer table, implied range, and written commentary — saved to your archive and downloadable as PDF.
