Originally published by Alt Goes Mainstream on April 30, 2026.
Numbers don’t lie, but portfolio company valuations can straddle the line between a science and an artform. Brian Garfield, Managing Director & Global Head of Portfolio Valuations, discussed this nuance and more as a featured guest on the Alt Goes Mainstream podcast.
The episode highlights several topics relevant to private market sponsors, including the health of the private capital markets, the impacts of alternative assets moving to the retail channel, the S&P Lincoln Senior Debt Index Series and our data powered by Lincoln Lens – Private Market Intelligence.
“We continue to see fundamental growth being positive,” said Brian. “We’re seeing more growers of EBITDA than decliners, and we’re still seeing positive EBITDA growth…Those are really good signs.”
