Alright, a question I get often. What is the difference between EBITDA vs SDE ? We dive into a few high-level differences to watch out for when evaluating businesses. EBITDA is typically used for larger businesses ($2-3M+ Profit). SDE is typically used for smaller businesses. BUT neither of those is cash flow. A few podcast nuggies: - SDE is not Cash Flow - Loan payments don't show up on the P&L many times - If you take a business with no debt, stack on 80%+ debt, you are fundamentally changing the entire business structure. You are ADDING risk here. You can get into trouble if you only take their costs vs WHAT YOUR costs will be.

Can you negatively add back an owner's salary because you're going to put an operator in? Yes, but don't expect the owner to pay for that in the valuation. Or to take you seriously if you propose that. Why hire just 1 person? Why not hire 50 people and go into super growth mode while losing $3M/year?
