Question 2

How is the EV/EBITDA ratio calculated?

Accepted Answer

EV/EBITDA = Enterprise Value ÷ Trailing Twelve-Month (TTM) EBITDA, where Enterprise Value = Market Capitalisation + Total Debt − Cash & Short-Term Investments.

Question 3

What is the EV/EBITDA ratio?

Accepted Answer

The EV/EBITDA ratio (the enterprise multiple) compares enterprise value (EV) to trailing twelve-month (TTM) EBITDA. EV is calculated as market capitalisation + total debt − cash & short-term investments. Because EV/EBITDA is capital-structure-neutral and ignores non-cash depreciation and amortisation, it is the standard multiple used in M&A and for cross-company or cross-border comparisons. Note: this calculation uses a simplified EV (minority interest and preferred equity excluded due to data availability), consistent with most public financial-data providers.

Question 8

Why does Brookfield Asset Management's EV/EBITDA ratio change over time?

Accepted Answer

Valuation multiples move with two inputs: the numerator (enterprise value, which tracks share price plus net debt) and the denominator (EBITDA). Share-price changes — driven by interest rates, earnings expectations, risk appetite, and broader market sentiment — typically dominate short-term moves, while changes in the underlying fundamental drive the longer-term trend. As a result, the ratio can rise during stock-price rallies even if the business itself has not become more valuable, and fall during sell-offs even when fundamentals are improving.
