This week we speak with ^redacted‌, a valuation and financial advisory expert. Koji has provided financial modelling and analytics services to hundreds of businesses, ranging from private, early-stage companies to publicly-traded Fortune 500 companies. In this episode we discuss some of the basic concepts that drive valuation, such as: how to understand industry average multiples, why EBITDA is used as a proxy for cash flow, and how to think about working capital.

We hope you enjoy this episode as much as we did!

Thanks for sharing - I'll be listening to the podcast intently for those success paths searcher/operator/valuations.

Particularly curious myself as a valuations consultant over the last 5+ years and now seeking full-time roles in the space with aims at acquiring a business myself (helped partner complete a distressed asset acquisition + dayspa to combine into a medspa practice over the last 5 months).
