Free medical practice business valuation

1. Earnings

Use your most recent full year — your tax return or P&L. Estimates are fine; you can change any answer later.

Total sales before expenses. Example: 850000

Net profit before income tax, as shown on your P&L or tax return. Enter a negative number for a loss. Example: 95000

Salary, draws, payroll taxes and benefits paid to one working owner. Example: $70,000 salary + $8,000 health insurance = 78000

Non-cash and financing costs on your P&L. Example: 12000 of depreciation on a work truck

Costs a new owner wouldn't have. Example: a 6000 legal settlement, or a family member's phone paid by the business

Seller's discretionary earnings (SDE): —

Profit + owner pay + add-backs. SDE is what one full-time owner-operator takes home, and it's the standard earnings figure buyers use for businesses selling under about $2M.

How Health & Medical businesses are valued

Healthcare practices (medical, therapy, allied health) are usually priced on seller's discretionary earnings (SDE), or on EBITDA for larger practices, with recurring patient revenue, insurance contracts, and practice size all affecting the multiple. Practices with a diversified payer mix and minimal owner-practitioner dependency command the highest prices.

Across all industries, small businesses selling for under $2M averaged 2.0×–3.1× SDE (IBBA & M&A Source Market Pulse, Q4 2025). The calculator above starts from these averages; businesses in your industry may trade above or below them.
