<p><b>New page</b></p><div>'''Earnings before interest and taxes''' (EBIT), also known as '''operating income''' and '''operating profit''', is a term used to describe a company's earnings. A professional investor contemplating a change to the [[capital structure]] of a firm (e.g., through a [[leveraged buyout]]) first evaluates a firm's fundamental earnings potential (reflected by [[EBITDA]] and EBIT), and then determines the optimal use of debt vs. equity. To calculate EBIT, basic expenses (e.g., the [[cost of goods sold]], selling and administrative expenses) are subtracted from revenues. [[Net income|Profit]] is later obtained by subtracting interest and taxes from the result.</div>Centiare
