What is Brady's EV/EBITDA ratio?

Brady (BRC) EV/EBITDA ratio is 14.5× as of August 7, 2026. The ratio is calculated by dividing enterprise value by trailing twelve-month EBITDA, using USD-normalised financials (IAS 21 exchange-rate translation for non-USD reporters).

How is the EV/EBITDA ratio calculated?

EV/EBITDA = Enterprise Value ÷ Trailing Twelve-Month (TTM) EBITDA, where Enterprise Value = Market Capitalisation + Total Debt − Cash & Short-Term Investments. All inputs are sourced from audited GAAP/IFRS filings and translated to USD using period-end exchange rates so the multiple is comparable across companies and currencies.

What is a good EV/EBITDA ratio for Brady?

Mature, cash-generative businesses commonly trade in the 8–12× EV/EBITDA range; higher-growth, asset-light companies often trade at 15–25×+. EV/EBITDA is most useful for comparing companies with different capital structures (debt levels) or tax regimes. For Brady specifically, the relevant sector benchmark is the current sector median of 16.6×.

Is Brady's EV/EBITDA ratio high or low?

Brady's EV/EBITDA ratio of 14.5× is above its own 5-year average of 11.5× and below the sector median of 16.6×. That places the current reading at the 99th percentile of its 10-year history. A higher multiple usually reflects stronger expected growth, lower perceived risk, or higher returns on capital; a lower multiple reflects the opposite.

What is Brady's historical EV/EBITDA ratio range?

In the available daily series, Brady (BRC) EV/EBITDA ratio has ranged from a low of 5.7× in 2011 to a high of 742.2× in 2014. The 5-year average is 11.5× and the 5-year median is 11.7×.

What was Brady's EV/EBITDA ratio in 2025?

Brady (BRC) EV/EBITDA ratio at the end of 2025 was 11.8×. Annual values reflect the multiple on the last trading day of each calendar year, using the trailing twelve-month EBITDA figure available at that date.

Why does Brady's EV/EBITDA ratio change over time?

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.

About EV/EBITDA at Brady (BRC)

Brady (BRC) EV/EBITDA ratio is 14.5× as of August 7, 2026. The 5-year average is 11.5×. The sector median currently stands at 16.6×. The current ratio is at the 99th percentile of its own 10-year history.

The EV/EBITDA ratio (the enterprise multiple) compares enterprise value (EV) to trailing twelve-month (TTM) EBITDA.
