Get Your Estimated Business Valuation in Just a Few Steps
Our business valuation calculator gives you a quick, data-driven estimate of your business value if you sold today. It’s built using real industry benchmarks and using common valuation principles used by brokers and buyers in the small business acquisition space.
This calculator uses an earnings multiplier method — the most commonly used valuation approach for small businesses.
Information This Calculator Uses
To estimate your business’s value, we’ll ask you a few quick questions:
- Your annual profit (either EBITDA or SDE)
- Your industry type (to apply the right valuation multiple)
- Your primary type of revenue (a business model indication)
- Your involvement in daily operations (which affects business risk)
Using this data, the calculator applies an estimated multiplier range to your profit, providing you with a valuation range (low and high estimate).
