Values are 100% enterprise values. Multiples divide EV by full-company revenue or EBITDA. Reported prices are assumed to be EV; explicit partial-stake prices are grossed up as estimates. Amounts paid are tracked separately, and a financing without a reported valuation shows its amount raised, not an EV.
