To assess company value, the EV/EBITDA approach was applied. Specifically, a company’s value was calculated by multiplying its operating profit (earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation, and amortization) by an industry-specific multiplier used in developed economies, and then subtracting the company’s net debt. The resulting figure is considered the company’s value.

In cases where a company operates at an operating loss (a negative indicator) but shows revenue dynamics that indicate potential profitability in the future, the EV/Sales method was used instead. In such cases, the product of the company’s revenue and the industry multiplier was calculated, from which the net debt was subtracted.

For financial institutions (commercial banks, microfinance organizations, credit unions, insurance companies, and others), the P/B Ratio method was applied. Specifically, the value was calculated using the product of the company’s equity and the financial sector’s average P/B multiplier across Europe as of the second quarter of 2023 (commercial banks: 0.8; insurance companies: 1.3; other financial services: 1.5).
For banks whose shares are publicly traded, empirical market valuation was used (e.g., TBC Bank and Bank of Georgia).

Company valuations and the ranking were based on 2023 financial reports, sourced from the reports portal of the Service for Accounting, Reporting and Auditing Supervision. Additional information was obtained from the Public Registry, company websites, and other public sources.
