FAQ

What happens if revenue is zero?

Revenue must be greater than zero to compute a margin. Enter a positive revenue figure to get a valid percentage.

Should I include extraordinary gains or losses?

Exclude one-time items to keep EBITDA margin focused on core operations.

Does this match GAAP EBITDA?

EBITDA is a non-GAAP metric; this calculator uses a standard definition but always confirm with your financial statements.

Additional Information

  • EBITDA strips out interest, taxes, depreciation, and amortization to highlight operating performance.
  • A higher margin indicates more cash-like earnings relative to revenue before capital structure decisions.
  • Compare EBITDA margin alongside gross and operating margins for a layered profitability view.
