This estimate uses an EBITDA multiple model informed by industry benchmarks and value driver adjustments. It is intended as an indicative starting point only and should not be relied upon for commercial, legal, or financial decisions. Horizon M&A recommends engaging a qualified advisor for a formal valuation.
Behind The Numbers
How our calculator uncovers the value of your business.
EBITDA Is the Foundation
Buyers ask one question first: “How much EBITDA am I buying?” Your industry sets the base multiple — the price buyers typically pay per dollar of profit in your sector.
Value Drivers Adjust the Multiple
Strong management, recurring revenue, and low customer concentration add to your multiple. Owner dependence, project-based revenue, and high concentration reduce it — each factor shifting the number up or down.
Three Scenarios, One Clear Range
Conservative, realistic, and optimistic multiples are applied to your EBITDA — giving you a credible valuation range, not a single number that could mislead either side of the table.
Common Questions Answered
Business valuation involves analysing financial statements, market conditions, industry trends, and factors such as revenue, EBITDA, and growth. The most common methods:
- EBITDA Multiple: The most widely used method in M&A — buyers pay a multiple of your annual EBITDA based on industry norms and business quality. This is the method used here.
- Market Comparables: Benchmarks your company against the trading multiples of similar businesses.
- Precedent Transactions: Reviews actual completed transactions in your sector to provide a market-based estimate.
Valuation is more than numbers. Six critical considerations:
- Numbers and perception both matter. Buyer willingness to pay is shaped by timing, trends, and strategic fit.
- Target the right buyer. Strategic buyers who value your specific capabilities often pay a premium.
- Size and stability shape multiples. Recurring revenue and scalable operations command higher values.
- Deal structure matters. All-cash at a lower headline can outperform a higher earn-out-based price.
- True comparisons need true parallels. Benchmarks are only meaningful when businesses are similar in size and sector.
- Preparation increases value. Businesses that have cleaned up financials, reduced key-person dependency, and diversified their revenue consistently achieve higher multiples.
Use your best estimates where needed — even rough figures will produce a useful indicative range. For a precise valuation tied to a real exit process, speak to one of our senior advisors.
The results offer a solid starting point. However, when preparing for a sale it is essential to engage an experienced M&A advisor who can perform a full valuation analysis, position your business to the right buyer universe, and negotiate the best possible terms on your behalf.
