THE WEB 2.0 UNIVERSE 80 public Web 2.0 companies identified: W e have identified 80 public companies for our W eb 2.0 universe. These include a wide variety of companies, including MMOG (Massive Multi-Player Online Gaming) companies, social networking software companies, media sharing companies, and social lending companies. See below for a summary of the full universe (Figure 1). Note that we have not included the large technology and media companies such as Google, Yahoo, Disney, and Sony in our universe as they would skew the results due to their immense size relative to the rest of the group. The average market cap for the group is ~$300 million, with average trailing revenue of $100 million. The companies are also highly profitable with an average EBITDA margin of 17.5%. On a valuation basis, the overall average is 3.8x trailing revenue and 8.4x trailing EBITDA. Seventeen of the companies have more than 500 employees.
