About EBITDA & Adjusted EBITDA Calculator

The EBITDA Calculator computes Earnings Before Interest, Taxes, Depreciation, and Amortization (EBITDA), the standard corporate finance metric used by private equity and lenders to evaluate core operational cash flow.

Formula & Mathematical Calculation

EBITDA = Net Income + Interest Expense + Income Taxes + Depreciation + Amortization

Adjusted EBITDA = EBITDA + Non-Recurring Owner Add-Backs / One-Time Expenses

Calculation Example

$150,000 Net Income ($30k Interest + $45k Taxes + $60k Depreciation + $15k Amortization): EBITDA = $300,000.00 (EBITDA Margin = 25% on $1.2M revenue).

  • Results use standard financial formulas and ignore fees, penalties and promotional terms that are not entered above.
  • Inflation, tax changes and market volatility are not modelled unless a field for them is provided.
  • Amounts are unit-agnostic: results are returned in the same currency you enter.

  • For decisions with lasting financial impact, confirm the numbers with a qualified professional.

Frequently Asked Questions

EBITDA isolates core operational earnings by stripping out financing decisions (interest), tax jurisdictions (taxes), and accounting methods (depreciation), allowing fair comparisons across companies.

It adds interest expense, income taxes, depreciation, and amortization back to net income. For $150,000 of net income plus $30,000 interest, $45,000 taxes, $60,000 depreciation, and $15,000 amortization, EBITDA is $300,000.

It is EBITDA plus any non-recurring or owner add-backs you enter, such as one-time expenses. The calculator shows it alongside EBITDA so you can present a normalized earnings figure.

When you enter total annual revenue, the calculator divides EBITDA by revenue as a percentage. On $300,000 of EBITDA against $1,200,000 of revenue, the EBITDA margin is 25%.

Net income is required — the bottom line from your income statement. If it is left blank the calculator stops with 'Enter net income (the bottom line from your income statement).' The other add-backs default to zero.
