Exit Multiple

An exit multiple is a stock valuation ratio (such as EV/EBITDA or EV/FCF) applied to a financial metric in the final forecast year to estimate the terminal value in a DCF model.

Beispiel

If the final year FCF is $15M and the selected exit multiple is 15x, the terminal value is $225M. The multiple is typically derived from comparable companies or industry averages.

Warum es wichtig ist

Exit multiples provide a market-based cross-check on terminal value in stock valuation. They are especially useful when comparable transaction data is available and when perpetuity growth assumptions feel unreliable.

Wie MiniValuator Exit Multiple verwendet
