See the EBIT (earnings before interest and tax) - operating profit before interest and taxes. EBIT shows core operating profitability.

Formula

EBIT = Revenue - COGS - Operating Expenses

EBIT Margin = (EBIT / Revenue) × 100

Example Calculation:

If revenue $1,000,000, COGS $400,000, operating expenses $300,000:

• EBIT = $1,000,000 - $400,000 - $300,000 = $300,000

• EBIT margin = ($300,000 / $1,000,000) × 100 = 30%
