Business Valuation Calculator
Estimate your business value using multiple valuation methods.
Methods:
Revenue Multiple: EV = Revenue × Industry Multiple
EBITDA Multiple: EV = EBITDA × Multiple
DCF (Gordon): EV = FCF × (1+g) / (r − g)
Equity Value = Enterprise Value − Debt + Cash
Valuation Methods
No single method is perfect. Professional valuators use multiple approaches and triangulate:
- Revenue Multiple: Best for high-growth, pre-profit companies (SaaS, tech)
- EBITDA Multiple: Most common for profitable businesses
- DCF: Theoretically correct but sensitive to assumptions
- Asset-Based: Best for asset-heavy businesses (real estate, manufacturing)
