About this tool

EBITDA is the profitability of the operating engine before financing structure and tax jurisdiction affect the picture. Pair it with the EBITDA margin to compare businesses of different sizes on the same footing.

Frequently asked questions

What is a healthy EBITDA margin?

Rule of thumb: software 25%+, retail 5-10%, industrial 10-15%. Compare against sector peers, not a fixed target.

EBITDA vs operating profit?

Operating profit already subtracts depreciation and amortisation. Add them back and you get EBITDA — one step earlier in the P&L waterfall.
