Exit Calc is a free, illustrative tool designed to help business owners and shareholders explore what a private equity exit might look like. It is operated by Exit Calc. By accessing or using this website, you agree to these Terms of Use and to our Privacy Policy. If you do not agree, please do not use the site.
Exit Calc does not provide financial, investment, tax, or legal advice. All valuations, multiples, projections, and deal-structure estimates shown by this tool are illustrative only and are based on generalised sector data and simplified assumptions.
Actual business valuations depend on a wide range of factors this tool cannot account for, including but not limited to: detailed financial performance and quality of earnings, customer concentration, management dependency, market conditions at the time of sale, specific deal terms and structures, due diligence findings, competitive dynamics among potential buyers, and debt and working-capital adjustments.
You should not make any financial decisions based solely on the output of this tool. Always consult qualified professional advisers — such as accountants, corporate finance advisers, and solicitors — before pursuing any business sale or exit transaction.
Using this tool, submitting information, or receiving any communication from us does not create any advisory, fiduciary, agency, brokerage, employment, or confidential relationship between you and us. We are not acting as your adviser, agent, or representative.
You should not submit any information that you regard as confidential or that you are not permitted to share. Information you submit is not treated as confidential, and by submitting it you grant us a non-exclusive, worldwide, royalty-free right to store, use, analyse, and process that information for the purposes described in our Privacy Policy.
By providing your email address, you agree that we may contact you in connection with your submission, your business and its potential options, and related opportunities, products or services, in accordance with our Privacy Policy. You can opt out of marketing communications at any time.
The EBITDA multiples used in this tool are based on publicly available market data and general industry benchmarks. They are updated periodically but may not reflect current market conditions at any given time.
The “second exit” projections assume illustrative private equity return targets over a typical hold period. Actual returns vary significantly, and there is no guarantee that any PE-backed investment will achieve its target returns. Past performance is not indicative of future results.
We make reasonable efforts to ensure the tool functions correctly, but we do not warrant that it is error-free or that results are accurate for any specific situation.
You agree to:
use this tool for lawful purposes only; provide information that is accurate to the best of your knowledge (though we understand estimates may be approximate); not attempt to reverse-engineer, scrape, or misuse the tool; not introduce malware or attempt to disrupt or gain unauthorised access to the site; and not use automated systems to submit data or access the tool at scale.
All content, design, and functionality of Exit Calc is owned by us and protected by applicable intellectual property laws. You may share links to the tool and share your own results (including the advisor summary feature) freely, but you may not copy, reproduce, or create derivative works of the tool itself.
To the fullest extent permitted by law, Exit Calc and its operators shall not be liable for any direct, indirect, incidental, consequential, or special damages arising from your use of, or inability to use, this tool, including but not limited to any financial losses, lost profits, or business decisions made in reliance on its output.
This tool is provided “as is” and “as available” without warranties of any kind, whether express or implied, including but not limited to implied warranties of merchantability, fitness for a particular purpose, and non-infringement. Nothing in these terms excludes or limits liability that cannot lawfully be excluded or limited.
You agree to indemnify and hold harmless Exit Calc and its operators from any claims, losses, liabilities, and expenses (including reasonable legal fees) arising out of your misuse of the tool, your breach of these terms, or your violation of any law or the rights of a third party.
This tool uses third-party services including Vercel (hosting and analytics), Airtable (data storage), and Resend (email). Your use of these services is subject to their respective terms and privacy policies. We are not responsible for the practices of third-party service providers.
These terms are governed by and construed in accordance with the laws of England and Wales. Any disputes arising from your use of this tool shall be subject to the exclusive jurisdiction of the courts of England and Wales.
If any provision of these terms is found to be unenforceable, the remaining provisions will remain in full effect. Our failure to enforce any right is not a waiver of that right. We may assign these terms in connection with a merger, acquisition, or sale of assets. These terms, together with our Privacy Policy, are the entire agreement between you and us regarding the use of this tool.
We may update these terms at any time. Changes will be posted on this page with an updated date, and continued use of the tool constitutes acceptance of the revised terms. Questions? Contact us at hello@exit-calc.com.
