What EBITDA is
EBITDA (Earnings Before Interest, Taxes, Depreciation and Amortization) is operating profit before interest, taxes, depreciation and amortization. It shows how much the core business generates, independent of financing and accounting policies.
Why it matters to the board
EBITDA is the preferred metric in valuations and cross-company comparisons because it removes capital-structure and depreciation effects. It's also a useful proxy for operating cash flow.
What influences EBITDA in operations
- Gross margin (cost of goods sold)
- Operating costs (logistics, staff, errors)
- Avoidable penalties and losses
How CRMconnect helps
CRMconnect is not accounting software, but it indirectly improves EBITDA by reducing avoidable operating costs: manual work, chargebacks, dead stock and retail penalties.
Πραγματικό παράδειγμα
Cutting OTIF penalties from €18,000/month to under €2,000 and manual order-entry hours directly improved operating margin and, in turn, EBITDA.

No. Net profit is after interest, taxes and depreciation; EBITDA excludes them, to show pure operating performance.
Does CRMconnect do the accounting for EBITDA?+
No. CRMconnect is an operational layer, not accounting. It contributes to EBITDA by reducing operating costs, and clean data flows into the accounting ERP.
