The Company’s revenue has increased nearly 20 fold on a YoY basis to $1.3 billion, as the number of subscribers has grown from 1.8 million to 83.1 million. However, the Company’s S-1 IPO filing disclosed an EBITDA margin of -24.5% as of 1Q11.

The negative EBITDA margin stems, in large part, from the huge sales force the Company employs to quickly enroll an ever-growing cadre of merchants and thereby attract additional subscribers. The strategy, clearly, is to scale massively and quickly in order to combat competitors and dissuade others from entering a market with few other barriers. Although Groupon separately delineates its marketing expenses, it lumps selling expenses together with general and administrative expenses, making it difficult to accurately assess its selling expense. However, if we assume the Company spends the Internet industry median of 11.2% on general and administrative expenses, we estimate Groupon spends 58.5% of total revenue on sales, 45.9% more than its public Internet company peers, and 23.2% more than the median selling expense of public SaaS companies, a category notorious for spending heavily on Sales (Figure 23).

Eventually Groupon will need to right size its cost structure and achieve profitability to retain investor interest, but it remains to be seen whether the current financial model will damper investor enthusiasm for the IPO. If Groupon’s IPO valuation surpasses the lofty valuations of other recent Internet IPOs, the chatter about another Internet bubble could become a roar.

Perhaps more useful is valuation grew to a median multiple of 2.7x TTM our calculation that in 2Q11, 36.9% of M&A deals revenue in 2Q11 from 2.3x TTM revenue in 1Q10 with reported EV/Revenue exit multiples had a (Figure 29). 2.0x EV/Revenue multiple or less.

Since very few software transactions publicly identify a private software seller’s TTM EBITDA, 2.7x 2.5x 2.3x we lacked sufficient data to ascertain the median 2.1x EBITDA exit multiple paid in 2Q11 for private software company sellers. We did, however, determine 2Q11’s median exit multiple for public software company sellers was 14.7x TTM EBITDA, a healthy improvement over 1Q11’s Q3 2010 Q4 2010 Q1 2011 Q2 2011 13.9x and 4Q10’s 12.4x TTM EBITDA exit multiple (Figure 31). Following seven consecutive quarters of sub-2x median exit multiples in 2008 and 2009, 2Q11 marked the sixth consecutive quarter the median Figure 31: Median Software M&A Valuation as a exit multiple equaled or exceeded 2.1x TTM Multiple of EBITDA revenue. The last time we observed such a phenomenon was 2Q05 to 3Q06, during which we also reported a median software M&A multiple of 13.9x 14.7x 2.7x TTM revenue in 3Q06. However, unlike in 13.0x 12.4x ’05-’06, the current median 2.7x exit multiple includes SaaS exits, which have unquestionably pushed the median software exit valuation higher.

SPOTLIGHT ON MOBILE M&A

The M&A strength of the mobile sector is particularly noteworthy this quarter, with twice as many transactions as any other software product category. Ever since Apple and Google successfully circumvented the wireless carriers by offering app stores directly to consumers, mobile innovation and customer adoption in the space has been breathtaking. High tech research firm Canalys recently estimated app store revenue will reach $14.1 billion in 2012, up 93% from $7.3 billion in 2011, and will soar to $36.7 billion by 2015. The explosion of applications has created many multi-billion dollar market opportunities and has given rise to a frenzy of M&A activity that’s drawing in industry titans.

The most active mobile product category was entertainment, consisting of games, music and video services, representing 31% of all M&A transactions in the Mobile Product Category in 2Q11. Notable transactions within the category include Electronic Arts acquisition of Firemint; Zynga’s acquisition of Sapus Media; Google’s acquisition of PushLife; and Yahoo’s acquisition of IntoNow.

Other mobile product categories accounting for more than 10% of mobile M&A transactions in Q2 include Marketing, Advertising, and Infrastructure. The activity in Mobile Marketing and Advertising was largely driven by online companies looking to expand their reach to mobile devices, exemplified by ValueClick’s acquisition of Greystripe ($70 million, estimated 2.5x TTM revenue) which paved ValueClick’s entry into the rapidly growing $1.1 billion mobile advertising market. Infrastructure transactions have been largely driven by the explosion of data over wireless networks, mandating more efficient pipeline control and policy rules at the carrier’s back office. Two of the larger transactions in this product category included Amdocs acquisition of Bridgewater Systems ($126 million, 1.4x TTM revenue), and Ericcson’s acquisition of Telcordia Technologies ($1.2 billion, 1.6x TTM revenue).

Mobile Application Platforms and Mobile Application Services, which accounted for 10.4% and 6.3% of all mobile transactions respectively, are focused on enabling applications to be accessed across the fragmented mobile device and app store ecosystem. Application Platforms seek to accomplish this with development platforms that transcend the underlying fragmentation complexity, while Application Service providers ordinarily rely upon resource intensive, manual porting. Clearly, Application Platforms are a far more efficient approach to navigating the complexity of the mobile ecosystem, and public buyers and VCs have taken note. A notable 2Q11 transaction in this category was Software AG’s acquisition of Metismo, with Software AG seeking to expand its leadership in the business process arena by creating a flexible and efficient “mobile office.”

Although Mobile Commerce represented less than 10% of mobile M&A transactions in the second quarter, this mobile subcategory is experiencing 86% YoY growth according to a recent IDC report, leading to some notable M&A transactions in 2Q11. EBay continued to acquire companies that would leverage its strategy of facilitating local retail purchases via mobile, acquiring Where and Fig Card Corporation. Along similar lines, Visa acquired Fundamo ($110 million) as it positions itself for the coming wave of mobile enabled payments. 6.3% 10.4% 4.2%

APPENDIX G: 2Q11 MERGERS AND ACQUISITIONS – DEAL INSIGHT

Oracle (NASDAQ:ORCL) acquires Fatwire Category: Web Content Management Purchase Price (estimate): $160,000,000 Seller Revenue (estimate): $40,000,000 Revenue Multiple (estimate): 4.0x Payment Terms: Cash

SEG’s Perspective: Software behemoth, Oracle, acquires best-of-breed web content and experience management vendor, Fatwire. Fatwire’s technology complements Oracle’s 2010 purchase of e-commerce software provider Art Technology Group ($881EV million, 4.1xEV TTM revenue) and joins other Oracle applications (Fusion Middleware, Siebel CRM, ATG e-commerce) to create a seemingly powerful customer experience management offering. EMC was thought to be a likely acquirer after investing in the Fatwire in early 2010, only to later announce an expanding partnership with Fatwire competitor, SDL Tridion, in early 2011. Oracle’s purchase of Fatwire follows Adobe’s 2010 purchase of web content management vendor Day Software ($177EV million, 4.2xEV TTM revenue).

SuccessFactors (NASDAQ:SFSF) acquires Plateau Systems Category: Employee Talent Management Purchase Price: $290,000,000 Seller Revenue (estimate): $70,000,000 Revenue Multiple (estimate): 4.2x Payment Terms: Cash

SEG’s Perspective: Leading talent management vendor, SuccessFactors, acquires Plateau Systems, a leading provider of employee learning and talent management systems. The acquisition plugs a hole in SuccessFactors’ talent management suite by adding strong corporate learning functionality, strengthens its presence in the public sector and pharmaceutical segments, and adds a significant recurring revenue stream. The acquisition follows Taleo’s purchase of Learn.com ($144EV million, 5.2xEV TTM revenue) in late 2010, as a number of leading talent management vendors have historically lacked strong learning management capabilities and are seeking to provide cradle-to-grave talent management offerings. After making no acquisitions from 2000 to 2009, SuccessFactors has made five acquisitions over the past 18 months.

Apax Partners acquires Epicor (NASDAQ:EPIC) Category: Enterprise Resource Planning Purchase Price: $951,450,000EV Seller Revenue (TTM): $453,290,000 Seller EBITDA (TTM): $54,350,000 Revenue Multiple (TTM): 2.1xEV EBITDA Multiple (TTM): 17.5xEV Payment Terms: Cash

SEG’s Perspective: Global private equity firm, Apax Partners, acquires Epicor, a leading provider of enterprise resource planning (ERP) applications to mid-market and enterprise organizations. Apax plans to merge Epicor with recently purchased Activant Solutions, a leading provider of mid-market retail POS and wholesale distribution applications. Activant brings Epicor significant revenue contribution as well as expertise in the distribution chain and a number of micro-verticals (automotive, hard goods retailers, building materials, etc.). Activant’s product technology innovation, however, has lagged since the company was purchased by private equity firm Hellman and Friedman in 2006 and will benefit from Epicor’s up-to-date development initiatives.

Microsoft (NASDAQ:MSFT) acquires Skype Category: Communications Purchase Price: $9,082,400,000EV Seller Revenue (TTM): $859,820,000 Seller EBITDA (TTM): $192,880,000 Revenue Multiple (TTM): 10.6xEV EBITDA Multiple (TTM): 47.1xEV Payment Terms: Cash

SEG’s Perspective: Microsoft acquires leading internet communications provider, Skype. The combination will enable Microsoft to integrate global communication channels into its many consumer offerings, including Live, Xbox and Bing; increase Skype’s VoIP and video presence via Microsoft channels and accelerate Skype functionality over mobile platforms. The acquisition also allows Microsoft to compete more effectively against major internet competitors Google, Facebook and Apple over internet turf, as Skype brings an enormous customer base of well over 100 million users per month. Founded in 2003, Skype was purchased by eBay in 2005 for $2.6 billion, which subsequently sold 70% interest (valued at $2.75 billion) in Skype back to Founders and an investor group led by SilverLake Partners and Andreessen Horowitz in late 2009. The roughly $9 billion purchase price paid by Microsoft represents a hefty return to recent investors.
