    Hi Sir, how are you doing?

    Please help me to undestand this matter.

    I was calculating the market value of CRX Co shares before the acquisition and I realised that in the correction paper that the PER of THP Co is used to calculate the market value of CRX Co shares.

    Why should we use the THP Co ( $7,5) to calculate the market value of CRX Co shares in that situation? I think that is due of both of the companies are in the same sector, am I right?

    Best regards

    Sorry for the delay in replying – somehow I missed your question 🙁

    Yes – it is because both companies are in the same sector and therefore you would expect a similar PE ratio.
