Revenue = Sales of goods or services received in a period of time.
EBITDA = Earnings before Interest Tax Deprecation Amortation, real earnings before effects of accounting policy decisions effect the bottom line.
EBIT = Earning before interest tax.
Depreciation = expense for use of assets in period of time

Compare companies against their revenue and EBITDA. The example given would be sales of 10 - 7 of purchases, salaries etc = EBITDA of 3.
Net profit of 30%

Financial are available from many sources eg yahoo finance, ninemsn finance etc and over many years if available.

Calculating share value depends on industry and discount methods used. See attached newsletter for oil industry. What the calculation determines and what the market is are two very different things. Look at the recent example of biotech vision systems.

Hope this helps, if you are new at shares paper trade first and consider a subscription to a newsletter, could save you a lot more than what it costs.
