In this episode of Sell Side Stories, we break down one of the most fundamental concepts in business valuation: how EBITDA and multiples work together to determine a company’s true enterprise value. We explore why EBITDA—earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation, and amortization—is used to normalize profitability and reveal a business’s real free cash flow.
From there, we dive into valuation multiples, unpacking how risk, industry dynamics, market trends, and strategic fit all influence where multiples land. We also discuss common EBITDA adjustments, including pro forma add-backs and one-time expenses, that can shape the final valuation picture.
Whether you're preparing to sell, exploring acquisition opportunities, or simply wanting to understand how buyers assess value, this episode offers a clear, practical breakdown of the mechanics behind business valuation.
