How the calculator works
The calculator reproduces how mid-market transactions in the German-speaking region are actually priced: a multiple on sustainable earning power, cross-checked against a capitalised earnings value and adjusted for the qualitative factors buyers pay for.
01
Normalised EBIT
The basis is sustainable earning power: a two-year average of EBIT to smooth outlier years, the adjustment to a market-level managing director salary and the balance of one-off effects. That is the earnings figure a buyer would actually sign up to.
02
Two valuation anchors
The main anchor is a sector- and size-dependent EBIT multiple from the middle of the observed transaction range. It is held against a capitalised earnings value with a risk-adjusted capitalisation rate, supplemented by an optional EBITDA anchor with a plausibility check.
03
Value drivers
Eight qualitative factors, from dependence on the owner through recurring revenue to deferred investment, shift the multiple by a factor of 0.70 to 1.30 within the sector range. Less risk supports a valuation in the upper third.

What the result is not
The result is an indication of enterprise value. What reaches the shareholders (equity value) additionally depends on net financial debt, on debt-like items and on non-operating assets.
A defensible valuation also takes the business plan, the market position and the transaction structure into account. The calculator does not replace it: it is a non-binding orientation and neither a valuation report nor tax or investment advice. If you need a derived figure rather than a range, the next step is exit readiness and valuation.
