We understand we have much work to do, and it won’t happen overnight. There is no hack or shortcut to excellence and sustainability; it is a continuous effort of growth and development.

    In my last article, I defined EBITDA as net profit adjusted to make it more useful for business valuation. To estimate a company’s value, valuers multiply EBITDA by a number called the “multiple.” The result is the estimated value of the company.
