Get a range on your own profit.
The valuation asks what your company does, its sales and its profit. Then it asks your name, email and cell phone, and shows a range. With $5,000,000 or more in sales you can ask for a call from the result.
Nobody buys $20,000,000 of sales. They buy what's left after costs, and at this size they call it EBITDA: yearly profit before interest, taxes, depreciation and amortization. S corporations with $10,000,000 to $50,000,000 in sales kept about 9.1% that way in tax year 2023, by our math on IRS figures. Pick your sales below and change the margin to yours.

A made-up example at the IRS rate
A made-up example: 9.1% of $20,000,000 in yearly sales. EBITDA is yearly profit before interest, taxes, depreciation and amortization.
Our sold-deal data puts that EBITDA at
$7,191,143 to $10,406,724
Typical $8,803,285, on a blend of owner's earnings and EBITDA.
IBBA and M&A Source Market Pulse, closed deals of $5,000,000 to $50,000,000. Typical is the middle of its recent readings. Our figures checked November 2, 2026.

The valuation asks your sales and profit again, then your name, email and cell phone, and shows a range.
The table takes one made-up company at each size and gives it the IRS rate for its band. A company with exactly $50,000,000 or $250,000,000 of sales sits in the band above. The IRS sorts companies by business receipts, which we call sales.
| Yearly sales | IRS rate used (band) | EBITDA at that rate | What our sold-deal data puts on it | Page |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| $10,000,000 | 9.1% ($10,000,000 to $50,000,000) | $910,000 | $2,823,234 to $4,569,748 | $10,000,000 page |

Exhibit 1. A made-up company at each size, at the IRS rate for its band. A buyer prices your adjusted EBITDA, which differs from a tax-return figure, so your range will differ. Our figures checked November 2, 2026.

A buyer pays for the cash a company will hand over each year. Sales tell them how big it is. EBITDA tells them what's left to pay a loan back and earn a return.
A made-up example: two companies, each with $20,000,000 in sales. One keeps 8.0%, which is $1,600,000 of EBITDA. The other keeps 18.0%, which is $3,600,000. The sold-deal data behind our calculator puts the first at $5,805,000 to $8,355,750 and the second at $14,400,000 to $20,880,000.
Same sales, and the second is worth more than twice the first, typical against typical. That's why the margin comes first on every page here.
Two other publishers band deals by company value, not sales. GF Data counts private equity buyouts and prints averages. TagniFi counts deals that middle market firms contribute and prints medians.

Our own top group, companies that sold for $5,000,000 to $50,000,000, reads 4.0x to 5.8x EBITDA. It counts advisor-run sales, not buyouts. Our calculator stops at the top of that group.[5] Why they differ
Each page has one job, its own figures and the tool set to its size.
Before you hand anyone your books, ask these three questions. They're fair to ask us too.

Percentages are BridgeBook's arithmetic on the IRS dollar figures.
Outside figures are other publishers', named and dated, and they don't feed our calculator. How we use outside figures
