The source provides a detailed, step-by-step guide to Precedent Transaction Analysis (PTA), which is a core corporate finance methodology used to value companies based on past merger and acquisition (M&A) deals. It defines PTA as answering the fundamental question, "What have similar businesses sold for in the past?", positioning it alongside Discounted Cash Flow (DCF) and Trading Comparables as an essential valuation tool. 

The document outlines The Seven-Step PTA Process, including identifying relevant deals, calculating key multiples like EV/EBITDA, and applying the results to estimate a target company's value. Crucially, the analysis explains that PTA reflects a control premium and strategic synergies, making its multiples typically higher than public market valuations. A real-world case study of the Fortis Healthcare Acquisition in India is used to illustrate the application and calculation of deal multiples.
