Episode 21: What is Driving Today’s High Valuations and Can It Continue? Dr. Howard Johnson, Canadian Market Leader at Duff & Phelps |
Mario’s guest is Howard Johnson, Canadian Market Leader at Duff & Phelps and managing director in its M&A Advisory practice. A veteran of the Canadian midmarket and a valuation expert, Howard believes that today’s high valuations and (often) double-digit multiples are likely to persist since many public companies and PE firms are cash-rich and eager to invest. Tax reform and the uncertainty of pandemic-era earnings analysis may emerge as complicating factors, however. | Spotify | Apple Podcasts (iTunes) | SoundCloud |

Integrity typically invests $10-40m in founder-owned-and-operated businesses, often taking non-controlling positions.
