The acquisition of Vanguard EMEA has been concluded at an enterprise value of 670 million euros, corresponding to a multiple of 12.7 times the company's estimated 2006 EBIT, before synergies. |
Until 2008 the EBIT margins of both companies are subject to certain fluctuations, which among other things are a result of erratically incurring revenues from the sale of real estate. |
The survey results compare the multiples of EBIT paid for various sizes and categories of middle-market manufacturers. |
The segment's EBIT margin reflected high levels of brand support and the continued roll-out of Nescafé Dolce Gusto, now sold in 24 countries. |
The aircraft division Bombardier Aerospace recorded EBIT of USD112m for the first quarter, compared with USD55m in last year's first quarter. |
However, the sale of the Plastics business unit reduced the EBIT of the METALL ZUG GROUP by CHF 7.1 million. |
