Example
A company has a market capitalization of $50M, debt of $1M, cash to the amount of $400K, and an EBITDA of $5M. Enterprise Value is market cap + debt - cash which is $50M + $1M - $0.4M = $50.6M. EV / EBITDA would be $50.6M/$5M which is 10.12x.
At the end of the year, NOPAT is $3M and invested capital is $18M. In this case, ROIC at the end of the year is about 16.7%.
