Hey guys I am trying to practice doing some comparables models but cannot find where to source forward ebitda and forward beta. Are there any free resources I can use or am i SOL?
Thanks.

Your pretty much SOL without access to equity research reports (Thomson, etc). You might get lucky and find something somewhere on the internet though.
Most financial websites will have a historical beta, so if you're concerned about historical vs. est'd forward beta I'd just make the adjustment manually.
I don't know of any places that will have free EBITDA estimates though. Depending how big the companies are, they may provide their own EBITDA guidance through investor presentations, but that would be a lot of work to try and dig up.

Just wondering would it be appropriate to arrive at a forward EBITDA by using forward net income estimates and adding back historic average ITDA expenses?
Forward beta is estimated by MSCI Barra and can be found in Alacra. Forward ebitda can be found in research reports.
