The Cogent M&A Database contains detailed valuation information on approximately 2000 merger and acquisition transactions covering all major industries, consisting primarily of private companies in the middle market.  The most beneficial attributes of this database relative to other sources of middle market M&A transaction information are: 1) the breadth of financial data that has been captured for each transaction, and 2) the normalization procedures that Cogent Valuation has devised in order to derive the most meaningful valuation multiples and ratios from these transactions.
