Your Numbers. Your Compass.

Xit Matters isn't a Quality of Earnings report. It's something better — it's the tool you actually use.

The 80/20 Rule

A formal QOE costs $50K–$200K and takes months. Xit Matters gives you 80% of that answer in 10 minutes — for free. You don't need dead accuracy to make the right call. You need direction.

Built for You, Not the Bank

These numbers are yours. Not for a buyer's due diligence team. Not for a loan officer. For you — the owner — to understand your business, make better decisions, and know your worth before anyone else does.

Same Math, Without the Invoice

Xit Matters uses the same methods as institutional valuations — DCF, market comps, cost of equity — but without a 6-month audit or a team of CPAs. We're transparent: these are approximations. But they're smart approximations, grounded in real math, that move when your business does.

When you're ready for a formal appraisal, you'll walk in already knowing your range — and that changes the entire conversation.

Triangulation Approach

Three Methods. One Truth.

Xit Matters doesn't give you one number and hope for the best. We run three independent valuation methods and blend them into a weighted answer that shifts based on your perspective.

These are the same three methods used by PE firms and M&A advisors — applied to your actual financials. They won't match a $150K formal appraisal to the penny. They will get you close enough to make every decision with confidence.

Intrinsic Value (FCFF)

What your business is truly worth

Discounted Cash Flow using your Weighted Average Cost of Capital. Projects 5 years of free cash flow, adds a terminal value, and applies an illiquidity discount. This is the institutional standard.

Equity Value (FCFE)

What your equity stake is worth

Cash flow to equity holders after debt service, discounted by cost of equity. Shows what your shares are actually worth — critical for fundraising and investor conversations.

Market Comps (EV/EBITDA)

What similar businesses sell for

Your trailing and forward EBITDA multiplied by real SMB transaction multiples. This is what buyers, brokers, and PE firms use to set the opening bid.

Xit Matters Blended Valuation

A proprietary weighted blend where the weights shift based on your persona. Sellers see more market comps weight. Fundraisers see more equity value weight. Your answer, your way.

Understand Your Cost of Capital

Your WACC drives every valuation. XIT's Cost of Capital tool shows you exactly where you stand — against your industry, against the S&P 500, and against your own potential.

Built by Exited Founders, for Founders

We built and sold our own businesses. We paid for QOEs, argued with appraisers, and still didn't feel like we understood our own numbers. Xit Matters is the tool we wish we had — the 80% answer you can actually use, in the language of someone who's been in your shoes.

Frequently Asked Questions

Xit Matters is built for anyone with a stake in a small or mid-size business. Whether you're selling your company, buying one, raising capital, planning reinvestments, evaluating as an investor, or just tracking your net worth — Xit Matters tailors everything to your perspective.
10-15 minutes. Enter your financial data (or connect QuickBooks/Xero), choose your perspective, and get your living valuation instantly. Xit Matters auto-generates forecasts and runs three independent valuation methods automatically.
Xit Matters uses three independent methods that converge on your value: FCFF (Intrinsic Value via DCF using WACC), FCFE (Equity Value via DCF using cost of equity), and Relative Valuation (EV/EBITDA market comps). The Xit Matters Blended Valuation weights these differently based on your persona for the most relevant answer.
It's our proprietary weighted blend of all three valuation methods. The weights shift based on who you are — a seller sees more weight on market comps (what buyers actually pay), while a fundraiser sees more weight on equity value (what shares are worth). No single number tells the whole story, but the blend gives you the most useful one.
No, and it's not meant to be. A Quality of Earnings report costs $50K–$200K, takes months of forensic accounting, and produces a legal document. Xit Matters gives you the 80/20: the same three valuation methods used by institutional buyers, run on your actual financials, producing a close, reliable estimate — not a binding opinion. Think of it as your compass, not your contract. When you're ready for the formal appraisal, you'll already know your range.
You. The business owner. These valuations are your personal compass for understanding what your business is worth, what drives that value, and what you can do about it. They're not for a bank loan application, a legal proceeding, or a buyer's due diligence package. They're for the person who built this business — to help you make better decisions about what you've earned.
Absolutely. We use bank-level encryption and never share your data. Your financial information is private and secure.
No problem. Xit Matters works with your current financials. You can always update and refine your numbers as you go. The platform recalculates instantly as your data improves.
Xit Matters is currently in beta and free to use. No credit card required. Early users will get special pricing and grandfathered rates when we launch paid plans.
Our built-in WACC calculator shows your business's cost of capital compared to your industry and the S&P 500. It includes a sensitivity simulator and optimization levers so you can see exactly how debt structure, tax efficiency, and capital allocation affect your valuation.
