Enter your numbers to see an indicative sale range based on owner-adjusted earnings (EBITDA / PEBITDA) and the factors buyers actually price on. Australia-focused, built for businesses valued from $500K to $50M.
Your business
All figures in AUD, annual (last 12 months).
Total turnover / sales before expenses.
Profit after expenses, as reported on your P&L (before add-backs).
What are add-backs?
Add-backs are legitimate expenses in your accounts that a new owner wouldn't carry — added back to profit to show the true earning power of the business. The most common are:
Owner's salary — what you pay yourself above (or below) a market-rate manager's wage.
Owner perks — personal costs run through the business: vehicle, travel, phone, insurances, memberships, family wages.
Interest — loan and finance interest tied to the current owner's funding, not the operation itself.
Add these together and enter the total. This turns reported profit into owner-adjusted earnings (PEBITDA) — the figure buyers value.
Revenue & profit trend over the last 2–3 years.
Lower owner-dependence = lower risk for a buyer = a higher multiple.
Different sectors trade on different earnings multiples.

Where you price changes how fast you sell

Priced toward the lower end — you widen the buyer pool, attract more competitive interest and typically sell faster, often with a cleaner, lower-risk deal.
Priced toward the higher end — you're targeting the right strategic buyer who sees full value. That can mean a materially better price, but a longer process and a narrower field of qualified acquirers.

This is a guide. A proper valuation weighs your customers, contracts, margins and buyer landscape. Let's talk about what your business is genuinely worth — and how to sell it to the right buyer.
