      New Valuations Page

      S&P Capital IQ Pro now offers a dedicated Valuations workflow, purpose-built for M&A advisory, pitchbook creation, and investment decision-making. At its core, it answers one key question: How much is this company worth?

      This workflow brings together pre-configured peer groups, relevant precedent transactions, and valuation multiples, including industry-specific multiples calibrated to sector norms, into a single accelerated experience. Results are visualized in a football-field chart, providing users with an at-a-glance summary of the full valuation range across methodologies.  The Valuations workflow consolidates financials, market data, and transaction data in one place, streamlining data gathering and empowering users to perform valuations more efficiently.

       Two industry-standard methodologies are available side-by-side:

      Trading Comparables: See how the market prices similar public companies today, with multiples benchmarked to your company's sector.

      Precedent Transactions: See what acquirers have actually paid for comparable companies, grounded in real deal data.

      Additionally, CreditCompanion Chat is further enhanced with architectural improvements and extended support of U.S. Public Finance queries.

      Credit Memo Builder

      Credit Memo Builder leverages generative AI to synthesize data from across S&P Global’s data estate into a single, credit-focused report. Users can get started with pre-built templates or may customize templates for their unique credit memo standards. Hands-on support is available to help with template customization.

      Data can be compiled from a variety of sources, including:

      • S&P Capital IQ Pro documents (filings, transcripts, etc.), and financials

      • S&P Ratings data and research

      • Credit Analytics public and private company scoring models

      • Proprietary documents uploaded by users

      Credit Memo Builder supports clients throughout the report generation process. Once a memo is generated, users can refine the report manually or make edits with AI. Finally, a client may export the report as a Word document.

      Credit Memo Builder supports one-click regeneration of prior reports to incorporate newly available data, updated documents, and refreshed financials. This minimizes rework and helps ensure credit memos remain current without requiring users to rebuild prompts. Report history is available in one place, making it easy to locate previous reports and templates.

      To support transparency, Credit Memo Builder provides in-line citations with source excerpts and visibility into the AI reasoning used during report generation. These features provide auditability and help users better understand and trust AI-assisted conclusions.
