EBITDA margin measures how much of EBITDA is generated as a percentage of sales. It measures the company’s operating profit as a percentage of its revenue and is calculated as EBITDA (earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation, and amortization) divided by total revenue.

EBITDA margin also helps with judging the effectiveness of cost-cutting processes at the company. The higher the company’s EBITDA margin, the lower operating expenses are in respect to revenue. As a result, a higher EBITDA margin is considered more favorable. Smaller companies can have higher EBITDA margins since they are able to operate more efficiently and maximize their profitability.

EBITDA excludes interest on debt, taxes, and capital expenditures, the margin does not provide a perfectly clear estimate of the business’s cash flow generation. Furthermore, EBITDA margin is not recognized as a GAAP (generally accepted accounting principles) metric.
