FAQ
Earnings before interest and taxes (EBIT) is one of the subtotals used to indicate a company's profitability. It can be calculated as the company's revenue minus its expenses, excluding tax and interest.
EBITDA isn't normally included on a company's income statement because it isn't a metric recognized by Generally Accepted Accounting Principles as a measure of financial performance.
EBITDA is net income BEFORE taking out interest, tax, depreciation, and amortization expenses.
Before Interest: Interest expenses are excluded from EBITDA because they depend on the company's capital structure, which may vary widely between companies. By removing interest, EBITDA focuses on operational profitability, irrespective of how the company is financed (debt vs. equity).
EBITDA excludes depreciation and amortization because these expenses are subjective, meaning their calculations can vary significantly between companies. This subjectivity arises from the difficulty of accurately estimating the useful life of tangible and intangible assets.
