M\"{o}bius transformations have been used in numerical algorithms for computing eigenvalues and invariant subspaces of structured generalized and polynomial eigenvalue problems (PEPs). These transformations convert problems with certain structures arising in applications into problems with other structures and whose eigenvalues and invariant subspaces are easily related to the ones of the original problem. Thus, an algorithm that is efficient and stable for some particular structure can be used for solving efficiently another type of structured problem via an adequate M\"{o}bius transformation. A key question in this context is whether these transformations may change significantly the conditioning of the problem and the backward errors of the computed solutions, since, in that case, their use may lead to unreliable results. We present the first general study on the effect of M\"{o}bius transformations on the eigenvalue condition numbers and backward errors of approximate eigenpairs of PEPs. By using the homogeneous formulation of PEPs, we are able to obtain two clear and simple results. First, we show that, if the matrix inducing the M\"{o}bius transformation is well conditioned, then such transformation approximately preserves the eigenvalue condition numbers and backward errors when they are defined with respect to perturbations of the matrix polynomial which are small relative to the norm of the polynomial. However, if the perturbations in each coefficient of the matrix polynomial are small relative to the norm of that coefficient, then the corresponding eigenvalue condition numbers and backward errors are preserved approximately by the M\"{o}bius transformations induced by well-conditioned matrices only if a penalty factor, depending on those coefficients, is moderate. It is important to note that these simple results are no longer true if a non-homogeneous formulation is used.
