  • Selling General and Administration (SG&A) Expenses are the costs a company incurs to run its business, which include salaries, marketing, rent, utilities, and office supplies and the SG&A margin is the percentage of revenue consumed by these expenses and shows how much revenue is being absorbed by overhead costs;
  • Adjusted Earnings Before Interest, Taxes, Depreciation and Amortization (EBITDA) is the cash profit generated by a company’s operations excluding non-recurring, irregular, and one-time items such as unrealized gains or losses; non-cash expenses (depreciation, amortization); litigation expenses; gains or losses on foreign exchange; goodwill impairments; non-operating income; and share-based compensation that may distort the EBITDA.
