Скачать или смотреть Warren Buffett: Why EBITDA Is a Misleading Metric

Is EBITDA a meaningless metric? In this video, we delve into the dangers of focusing on EBITDA (Earnings Before Interest, Taxes, Depreciation, and Amortization) as a primary indicator of a business's financial health. We explore why relying solely on EBITDA can be an illusion, especially for businesses with significant fixed assets and ongoing capital expenditure requirements.

Discover why ignoring essential cash flow considerations for reinvestment and maintenance is a recipe for disaster. Learn how focusing on a pre-cash requirement metric can lead to flawed investment decisions and a misunderstanding of a company's true earning power. We discuss the importance of looking beyond superficial numbers and understanding the fundamental economics of a business.

We emphasize the crucial need to evaluate a company's ability to generate sustainable cash flow and its long-term earning potential, rather than getting caught up in misleading accounting figures. Understand the qualities we seek in a business: a product we understand, a grasp of the competitive landscape, and an evaluation of future earning potential over the next 5, 10, or 15 years. This is about understanding businesses, not just the numbers.

Are you ready to ditch the misleading metrics and focus on genuine cash-generating businesses? Watch now to learn how to make informed investment decisions.
