« Back to Glossary Index

The Excess Earnings Method is one of the business valuation methods within the Income Approach and is sometimes used to determine the value of a business by isolating and quantifying the earnings that exceed a certain level considered normal or expected. This method is particularly relevant when valuing businesses with significant intangible assets, such as a strong customer base, brand recognition, or proprietary technology.
