Introduction:
Earlier in the week, I showed you the extreme valuation growth that could be obtained for companies that could produce 25% EBITDA growth and a doubling of their multiple. Today, we ratchet down the EBITDA growth rate down to a growth rate of 12.5% which is much more sustainable for the companies we typically work with. Estimating the future value of a company is a complex task that involves a careful evaluation of various factors. In this article, we embark on a hypothetical journey to project the potential value of a company seven years into the future. Key assumptions include the current EBITDA, the EBITDA multiple used for valuation, and the compounded annual growth rate in EBITDA. By examining these assumptions, we aim to estimate the company's potential worth at the conclusion of the specified 7-year period.
Assumptions:
Estimating Future Value:
To project the company's value over the next 7 years, we'll apply the assumptions to calculate EBITDA and the valuation multiple for each year.

Year 2:
(Continue compounding EBITDA growth and adjusting the multiple each year)
Year 7:
Conclusion:
Based on the provided assumptions, the estimated value of the company after 7 years moves from approximately $10,000,000 to approximately $39,000,000. This projection accounts for both the compounded annual growth in EBITDA and the increase in the EBITDA multiple used for valuation. It is important to note that these projections are based on assumptions, and actual outcomes may differ based on real-world circumstances. Regularly reassessing and adjusting these assumptions is crucial for accurate and informed decision-making regarding the future value of the company.
