The diffe\u00adrence is parti\u00adcu\u00adlarly large compared to the multi\u00adples of mid-cap listed companies(1), whose valua\u00adtion has fallen by 11 percent to 8.0x EBITDA(2).<\/p>\n<p>Valua\u00adtions for unlis\u00adted compa\u00adnies showed momen\u00adtum in the second half of the year that was inde\u00adpen\u00addent of deve\u00adlo\u00adp\u00adments on the stock markets(3).

In 2018, EBITDA multi\u00adples in Germany increased by 8 percent to 9.8x EBITDA, or by 3.8 multi\u00adple points since the low point at the end of 2009. This price deve\u00adlo\u00adp\u00adment is driven by a dyna\u00admic M&amp;A market, whose volume increased by 18 percent in&nbsp;2018.<\/p>\n<p>Since 2013, the deve\u00adlo\u00adp\u00adment of German multi\u00adples has been in line with those of the euro area. The crises of 2009 (finan\u00adcial crisis) and 2012 (euro crisis) had no impact on valua\u00adtion multi\u00adples in Germany compared with the deve\u00adlo\u00adp\u00adment of valua\u00adtion levels in the euro&nbsp;zone.<\/p>\n<p><strong>About Argos&nbsp;Wityu<br>\n<\/strong>Foun\u00added in 1989 as Argos Sodi\u00adtic, Argos Wityu is an inde\u00adpen\u00addent pan-Euro\u00adpean invest\u00adment company with offices in Brussels, Frank\u00adfurt, Geneva, Luxem\u00adbourg, Milan and Paris.
