Key takeaway here is not to rush into doing calculations you weren't asked to do.
Some candidates are too eager to show they can do math, but sometimes that is not what is being asked.

Hi there,
Thank you for your question and you do not need to calculate the exact EBITDA of BeautyCo in order to solve this case. Try to understand (and clarify with the interviewer) where the profitability issues come from and go from there. 😊
If you need further help, please don't hesitate to get in touch.
Best,
Your PrepLounge Team
