For many, it may be a case of too busy working in the company to be working on the company. Ebitda - earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation and amortization. Ebitda is essentially net income with interest, taxes, depreciation, and amortization added back to it. It can be used to analyze and compare profitability between companies and industries because it eliminates the effects of financing and accounting decisions. Ebitda is a good metric to evaluate profitability, but not cash flow.
