Key Data and Facts

EBIT margin = EBIT / revenue * 100. Good margin depends on industry: manufacturing often 5-15%, software 20-40%. EBITDA additionally includes depreciation.

Step-by-Step Guide

How to calculate the EBIT margin step by step: 1. Determine revenue: The total proceeds of your company in the period under review. 2. Calculate EBIT: Revenue minus cost of goods sold (COGS), minus selling expenses, minus administrative expenses, minus other operating expenses, plus other operating income. Interest and taxes are not deducted. 3. Calculate the EBIT margin: EBIT / revenue x 100. 4. Optionally calculate EBITDA: EBIT + depreciation on tangible assets + amortization on intangible assets. 5. Industry comparison: Compare your margin with industry averages (manufacturing 5-15 %, retail 2-5 %, software 20-40 %, consulting 15-25 %). 6. Analyze the trend: Compare the margin across several periods. Example: A company with 2,500,000 EUR in revenue. Cost of goods sold: 1,500,000 EUR. Selling: 300,000 EUR. Administration: 250,000 EUR. Other: 100,000 EUR. EBIT: 2,500,000 - 1,500,000 - 300,000 - 250,000 - 100,000 = 350,000 EUR. EBIT margin: 350,000 / 2,500,000 x 100 = 14.0 %. Depreciation: 80,000 EUR. EBITDA: 430,000 EUR. EBITDA margin: 17.2 %.

Calculation Example

Umsatz 2.500.000 EUR, costs 2.150.000 EUR. EBIT: 350.000 EUR. EBIT-Marge: 14,0 %. Abschreibungen: 80.000 EUR. EBITDA: 430.000 EUR. EBITDA-Marge: 17,2 %.
