Az EV / EBITDA a vállalati érték a kamat, az adózás, az értékcsökkenés és az amortizáció előtti eredményekkel elosztva. Ez azt jelenti, hogy mennyire drága egy állomány, és gyakrabban érvényesül a vállalatok közötti összehasonlításnál, mint az ár / nyereség arány. Megméri az árat (vállalati érték formájában), amelyet a befektető fizet a vállalat pénzforgalmának javára (EBITDA formájában).
Price to earnings ratios are impacted by a company's choice of capital structure - companies which raise money via debt will have lower P/Es (and therefore look cheaper) than companies that raise an equivalent amount of money by issuing shares, even though the two companies might have equivalent enterprise values. A sample case is when a company with debt were to raise money by issuing shares of stock, and then used the money to pay off the debt, this company's P/E ratio would shoot up because of the increased number of shares - although nothing about the fundamental value of the business has changed. EV / EBITDA is unaffected by capital structure as enterprise value includes the value of debt, and EBITDA is available to all investors (debt and equity) as it excludes interest payments on that debt. It is ideal for analysts and potential investors looking to compare companies within the same industry.
