This calculator provides an indicative value range using SDE and EBITDA multiples — the two most widely used methods in lower-mid-market M&A. Multiples are derived from real transaction data. For a precise valuation, book a call with our advisory team.
SDE (Seller's Discretionary Earnings) adds back the owner's salary to pre-tax profit and is typically used for owner-operated businesses under £5M. EBITDA is the standard for larger or institutional-track businesses. We show both ranges so you can see the full picture.
A spread between the low and high is completely normal at this stage. Your final number depends on factors we can only assess on a call: the proportion of recurring vs. one-off revenue, how concentrated your customer base is, how reliant the business is on you personally, your growth trajectory, and — critically — how much competitive tension we can generate among buyers. That last factor alone can move your valuation significantly. Book a 20-minute call to understand exactly where your business sits within this range.
We use it to silently identify your sector so we can apply the right transaction multiples and show you relevant deal comps. Nothing is published, scraped beyond the homepage, or shared.
Absolutely. Your contact details are used only to send your valuation report and to follow up if helpful. We never share them with third parties.
