I thought my company’s valuation would be 5 years of my average revenue. But I heard it’s actually 2 years. What’s the right way to know this?

    There’s no one-size-fits-all answer for this. It heavily depends on your industry, EBITDA, profit margins, etc. Team size, assets, so on and so on.

    Your best bet is to start researching how companies are evaluated on YouTube, then check out a few calculators you can find in Google. It’s also a good idea to Google search big companies in your industry that were recently acquired and work your way backwards from there.

    Try a business valuation calculator, they do pretty well. And also try to estimate it with multipliers of ebitda for example. Try multiple ways to come to a suitable average

    5x+ on revenue is typically what you see for growth startups, with high margins. A heuristic indicator would be in VCs invested in it, for everything else 3-5x on profit is what I encountered most.
