What is the Enterprise Value Calculator?
Compute enterprise value from market cap, debt and cash. To use the Enterprise Value Calculator, enter market capitalization, total debt, preferred stock, minority interest, cash; it returns enterprise value, net debt, and shows them instantly as you type.
Where the Enterprise Value Calculator fits
Compute enterprise value from market cap, debt and cash. The main figure it returns is the Enterprise value, worked out from the values you enter.
It belongs with the other stocks & equity analysis tools. If you are comparing options or checking a result from another angle, try the EV to Sales Calculator — Enterprise Value to Sales, Maturity Value Calculator or the NAV Calculator — Net Asset Value.
How to use the Enterprise Value Calculator
- Enter your numbers. The inputs are Market capitalization ($), Total debt ($), Preferred stock ($), Minority interest ($), Cash ($). Take price and share figures from the latest filing or quote. Fields marked optional can stay at zero.
- Read the result. The highlighted box gives the Enterprise value, and the cards below show Net debt. Tables and charts break it down further.
- Test other scenarios. Results update as you type. Change one value at a time to see what drives the answer, and press Reset to go back to the defaults.
Formula and how it works
Example with real numbers
Here is the Enterprise Value Calculator using the default values shown in the calculator above:
Inputs
| Market capitalization ($) | 5,000,000,000 |
|---|---|
| Total debt ($) | 1,200,000,000 |
| Preferred stock ($) | 0 |
| Minority interest ($) | 50,000,000 |
| Cash ($) | 800,000,000 |
Results
| Enterprise value | $5,450,000,000.00 |
|---|---|
| Net debt | $400,000,000.00 |
With these inputs the calculator returns Enterprise value: $5,450,000,000.00. Change any value in the calculator to see how the result moves.
What if you change one input?
Sensitivity check: raising Market capitalization ($) from 5,000,000,000 to 6,000,000,000 (about 20% higher) and leaving everything else as in the example above changes the results like this:
| Result | Example | After the change | Change |
|---|---|---|---|
| Enterprise value | $5,450,000,000.00 | $6,450,000,000.00 | +18.3% |
| Net debt | $400,000,000.00 | $400,000,000.00 | 0% |
The input that moves the result most is the one to check twice. Change it in the calculator above to test your own case.
