EV/Sales

Enterprise Value/Sales is a financial ratio that compares the total value (as measured by enterprise value) of the company to its sales. Generally, the lower the ratio, the cheaper the company is.[1] Some investment professionals believe—as enterprise value and sales both consider debt and equity holders—Enterprise Value/Sales is superior to the oft quoted price/sales ratio.[2]
