Portability leverage tests often use 'Pro Forma EBITDA' for the most recent four fiscal quarters.
If a company sold a major division halfway through the year, how is the EBITDA adjusted for the portability test?
- The EBITDA from the sold division is included as a 'discontinued operation'.
- The EBITDA from the sold division is removed for the entire 12-month period.
- The cash proceeds from the sale are added to the EBITDA.
- No adjustment is made as it was part of the historical performance.
