A method of business valuation which is based on a relevant measure and the ratio of value to that measure for a comparable business (or a comparable group of businesses).

The most widely used financial measure for this purpose for a mature business is accounting earnings. For other types of businesses, relevant measures might include - for example - turnover, or numbers of subscribers.
