Butwhatcomesnext?
Value of Operating Assets
+ Cash and Marketable Securities
+ Value of Cross Holdings
+ Value of Other Assets
Value of Firm
- Value of Debt
= Value of Equity
- Value of Equity Options
= Value of Common Stock
/ Number of shares
= Value per share
Operating versus Non-opeating cashShould cash be discounted for earning a low return?
How do you value cross holdings in other companies?What if the cross holdings are in private businesses?
What about other valuable assets?How do you consider under utlilized assets?
What should be counted in debt?Should you subtract book or market value of debt?What about other obligations (pension fund and health care?What about contingent liabilities?What about minority interests?
What equity options should be valued here (vested versus non-vested)?How do you value equity options?
Should you divide by primary or diluted shares?
Should you discount this value for opacity or complexity?How about a premium for synergy?What about a premium for intangibles (brand name)?
Should there be a premium/discount for control?Should there be a discount for distress
Should there be a discount for illiquidity/ marketability?Should there be a discount for minority interests?
Since this is a discounted cashflow valuation, should there be a real option premium?
