Multi-method valuation of a mid-market acquisition target — a specialty building products distributor with $84m of revenue and $10.9m of EBITDA. Discounted cash flow with a built-up WACC, trading comparables adjusted for size, precedent transactions, and an LBO solved backwards from the sponsor's hurdle rate.
