FireEye’s scale in cybersecurity
Previously in this series, we discussed FireEye’s (FEYE) recent offerings and the company’s focus on SaaS (software-as-a-service) to generate revenue growth. In this part, we’ll look at FireEye’s value proposition among select US cybersecurity companies.
On January 30, 2017, Cisco Systems (CSCO) was the largest global player by market capitalization in the security space. Cisco Systems (CSCO) is considered a leader in the overall security appliance market, but IDC recently stated that Palo Alto, with its 17.1% market share, currently leads the security market.
Symantec (SYMC), Palo Alto Networks (PANW), FireEye, Barracuda (CUDA), and Fortinet (FTNT) join Cisco at the top of cybersecurity.
FireEye’s enterprise value multiples
Now let’s look at the EV-to-EBITDA (enterprise value to earnings before interest, tax, depreciation, and amortization) multiples of FireEye’s peers. FireEye has a negative EBITDA, so we haven’t included it here.
The forward EV-to-EBITDA multiple for Palo Alto Networks most recently stood at ~28.81x. Cisco Systems had a multiple of ~7.07x, and Symantec had a multiple of 11.5x on November
