Letâs decode đž
Here is one of the most misunderstood finance buzzwords: EBITDA.
It stands for Earnings Before Interest, Taxes, Depreciation & Amortization.
Sounds like a lot â but hereâs the easy way to think about it:
đ Itâs your companyâs earnings before the adult stuff hits.
No loans. No taxes. No asset wear & tear. Just clean, raw potential. đ°
Youâre basically asking:
âWhat would this business make if it didnât owe money, didnât pay taxes, and its stuff didnât age?â
Hereâs what gets left out:
đł Interest on debt (because debt never sleeps)
đ§Ÿ Taxes (they always find you)
đïž Depreciation & Amortization (the slow fade of assets)
đ Formula:
EBITDA = Net Income + Interest + Taxes + D&A
đ§ Why care?
It shows how a business performs operationally â before outside stuff interferes. Investors love it because it strips away noise and shows the real engine under the hood.
So next time EBITDA shows up in a convo, flex that brain and drop the formula with a smirk. đ
