  • What do EBIT and EBITDA mean? How to calculate EBIT and EBITDA? Why are the financial metrics EBIT and EBITDA important to measure the financial success of a company? Why do some companies use EBIT (Earnings Before Interest and Taxes) and others EBITDA (Earnings Before Interest, Taxes, Depreciation and Amortization)? What is the purpose of the financial statements of a company: income statement, balance sheet, and cash flow statement? What are EBIT and EBITDA used for in business?
    Both EBIT and EBITDA are measures of profitability, along with terms like gross profit and net income. They are reported in the income statement (or "Profit & Loss statement", "P&L"), an overview of the profit or income that you generate during a period.
    ⏱️TIMESTAMPS⏱️
    00:00 Introduction
    00:18 EBIT and EBITDA in the financial statements
    00:46 EBIT and EBITDA definition
    01:31 EBIT and EBITDA in the income statement
    02:01 Which companies use EBITDA
    02:24 What is depreciation
    03:19 EBIT and EBITDA example in financial reporting
    04:44 What is EBITDA used for?
    05:30 EBIT and EBITDA summary
    To calculate EBIT and EBITDA, many companies would present their income statement in the following way:
    Revenue minus Cost Of Sales equals Gross Profit.
    Gross Profit minus S,G&A and R&D equals EBITDA.
    EBITDA minus Depreciation & Amortization equals EBIT.
    EBIT minus Interest and Taxes equals Net Income.
    Please be aware that different companies use different terminology, so what you see here might be different from what your company is using.
    EBIT is Earnings Before Interest and Taxes. Interest is excluded, as it depends on your financing structure. How much did you borrow, and at what interest rate? Taxes are excluded, because it depends on the geographies that you work in.
    EBITDA is Earnings Before Interest, Taxes, Depreciation and Amortization. Just like EBIT, it excludes Interest and Taxes. Furthermore, depreciation and amortization are excluded, because they depend on the historical investment decisions that a company has made, not the current operating performance.
    EBITDA is a meaningful metric for capital-intensive industries.
    In the video, we look at an example of using #EBIT and #EBITDA in financial reporting, by reviewing the 2015 annual report of the Maersk Group (CPH: MAERSK-B), a company headquartered in Denmark and operating globally.
    What do business and finance people use EBITDA for? Besides being a metric to represent ongoing operating performance, it is often mentioned as part of M&A (or Mergers & Acquisitions) news. A quick-and-dirty way to calculate the value of a company is by using a multiple of EBITDA. This can help you to get to a ballpark number, but I would advise to always do a more thorough analysis and a more thorough valuation of a company, as there are a lot of “ifs” connected to using an EBITDA multiple… you are assuming the profitability and the industry does not change, you exclude the impact of working capital (which could go up dramatically for a fast-growing company), and you exclude the cash that you need for capital expenditures on an ongoing basis for the company.

    Our CEO mentioned EBITDA in the newsletter,because this is new to me I quickly googled what this EBITDA means and your channel was the first in line,needless to say how impressed I am by the simple form of explanation.
    I may not be a financial/accounting guru but I got a rough sketch to what's happening in the business.After watching this video I think I'm going to school to learn how to read Balance Sheet and Income Statement Account.

    Technically speaking in valuing an enterprise the only 2 metrics that matter are free cashflow and risk. EBITDA is a good proxy for OCF but needs adjustment for investment (capex + wc), Depreciation and amortization only figure in P&L for tax deduction.

    Great explanation of EBITDA. Ignoring depreciation always seemed like the dumbest thing in the world, but it would make sense to ignore that if items currently depreciating are not reflective of what will replace them in the future (old expensive system to be replaced with cheaper system at end of life).
    Not a perfect metric but not a useless metric either.

    • @TheFinanceStoryteller
      @TheFinanceStoryteller  2 ปีที่แล้ว

      Agree with you, Shawn! EBITDA can be a useful proxy for cash flow from operating activities, as depreciation is a non-cash expense. Here is another example of calculating EBITDA with real world numbers: th-cam.com/video/7e_6qEo1grI/w-d-xo.html

    This single video has helped me understand EBITDA better compared to other videos and articles. Thank you.
    Question regarding the formula at 2:00: When a company earns money, they usually have to first pay taxes. So doesn't it make sense to minus the (Taxes, Interest) variables from the Gross Profit, before R&D and SGA? The remaining money would be the Net Income, which can then be spent on R&D, right?

    • @TheFinanceStoryteller
      @TheFinanceStoryteller  3 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      Hello Mahesh! Thank you for the kind words. Those are very good questions. A lame answer to them would be "that's just the way we have agreed to do it". 😉 An attempt at a better answer is: it makes logical sense (to me at least) to take revenue minus the costs to produce the product or services (COGS), which gets you to the Gross Margin subtotal, minus the cost of the support (SG&A) and R&D functions, which gets you to the Operating Margin subtotal. As the term suggests, Operating Margin, indicates the profitability generated by the operational activities, see th-cam.com/video/VCMJzG1AaXA/w-d-xo.html You subsequently deduct interest expenses (driven by the financing structure) and corporate income taxes (driven by the countries you are located in and their tax rates/regimes) to get to Net Income. Interest expense and corporate income taxes are non-operational charges. For a more detailed walk-through of the income statement, see my analysis of Microsoft: th-cam.com/video/Hq-44PHgAiU/w-d-xo.html

    I see where this would be useful in our trucking business. And even though it is somewhat important in a counseling field. I think too many corporations and owners get so focused on #'s and not on the quality of their services. So how can one keeping in mind the EBIT/EBITDA and the quality of service delivery where neither one of these are being compromised. The corporation I work for is all about numbers. And for me it is about the focus and the needs of the client that I am serving and that will eventually take care of the EBIT/EBITDA,

    • @TheFinanceStoryteller
      @TheFinanceStoryteller  7 ปีที่แล้ว

      Very good point, Alyson! Thanks for your comment. I agree with you that having a balanced/holistic view of a company's performance (financial performance as well as employee and customer satisfaction) is very important. In order to convince top management to invest/spend at your company, you probably have to walk them through the linkage between quality of service delivery which impacts customer satisfaction which in turn impacts revenue and margin. Unfortunately, this is probably not a straightforward 1-to-1 equation, but I hope you can show the "big picture" with a good amount of data... let the numbers talk!

  • @GaneshKumarganeshkmr16
    @GaneshKumarganeshkmr16 ปีที่แล้ว +1

    Thank you for the detailed explanation. I have one clarification:
    1. @1.53 - Revenue - Cost of Sales = Gross Profit. Again, Gross Profit - SG&A - R&D = EBITDA.
    Since we have already considered Cost of Sales to arrive at Gross Profit, what is the significance of S in SG&A? Isn't Cost of Sales = Selling expenses?

    • @TheFinanceStoryteller
      @TheFinanceStoryteller  ปีที่แล้ว

      Hello! I am very happy that you ask this question, as this is a common misunderstanding. Cost Of Sales is also called Cost Of Goods Sold (if the company sells products) th-cam.com/video/jEUnCe_9I-s/w-d-xo.html or Cost Of Services Sold (if the company sells services). Example: if you run a furniture store, then you might be delivering and invoicing a chair to your customer (1 unit sold times selling price). The Cost Of Sales, or Cost Of Goods Sold (1 unit sold times cost per unit) consists of the materials that went into the chair, the labor for the workers assembling it, and any machine cost in production. In SG&A, the S is for selling expenses, which would be the brochures that the company makes to promote its products, the salaries of the sales people in the store that interact with customers, etc.
      Hope that helps!

      Hi Victoria! EBIT and EBITDA are generic non-GAAP metrics. The T stands for corporate income taxes. Any corporate income tax is excluded, whether it is US tax or taxes in other countries. Multinational companies could have difference in net income due to the countries they operate in and the respective taxes rates. EBIT and EBITDA exclude that effect.
