Are offers based on revenue, SDE, cashflow or Ebitda?

Hi Team
i want to confirm what others are seeing or recommendations from owners in terms of the multiplier.. Are you experiencing that owners are using the revenue as the base number for the multiplier vs ebitda etc?  I’m working on a deal and the owner is using revenue which was a shock to me.  
Any advice would be appreciated
