Emerging from the wreckage, however, is renewed support for the over-arching objective of traditional finance theory, namely the long-run maximisation of shareholder wealth using the current market value of ordinary shares (common stock) as a benchmark. If capitalism is to survive, it is now widely agreed that conflicting managerial aims and short-term incentives, which now seem to characterise every business sector, must become entirely subordinate to the preservation of ownership wealth, future income and capital gains. And as we shall discover, the key to resolving this principle-agency problem begins with a theoretical critique of how shares are valued. This not only underpins the practical measures of current and historical stock market performance published in the financial press (price, yield, cover, and the P/E ratio) used by market participants throughout the world. It also provides private individuals and the companies or financial institutions acting on their behalf with a common framework to analyse all their future investment decisions, whether it is an individual share transaction, a market placement, or corporate takeover activity. 1.1 Some Observations on Traditional Finance Theory Based on the Separation Theorem of Irving Fisher (1930), traditional normative theory explains how corporate management should maximise shareholder wealth by maximising the expected net present value (NPV) of all a firm’s investment projects. According to Fisher, in a world of perfect capital markets, characterised by rational-risk averse investors, with no barriers to trade and a free flow of information, it is also irrelevant whether a company’s future project cash flows are distributed as dividends to match shareholders consumption preferences at any point in time. If a company decides to retain profits for reinvestment, shareholder wealth measured by share price will not fall, providing that: Management’s minimum required return on new projects financed by retention (the discount rate) at least equals the shareholders’ opportunity rate of return (yield) that they can expect to earn on alternative investments of comparable risk, or their the opportunity cost of capital (borrowing rate). If shareholders need to borrow to satisfy their consumption (income) requirements they can do so at the market rate of interest, leaving management to reinvest current earnings (unpaid dividends) on their behalf to finance future investment, growth in earnings and future dividends. Following Fisher’s logic, all market participants should therefore earn a return commensurate with the risk of their investment. And because perfect markets are also efficient markets, shares are immediately and correctly priced at their intrinsic value in response to managerial policy, just like any other information and current events. 11 Download free eBooks at bookboon.com Corporate Valuation and Takeover An Overview Yet, we now know that markets are imperfect. Investors may be irrational, there are barriers to trade and information is limited (particularly if management fail to communicate their true intentions to shareholders) any one of which invalidates Fisher’s theorem. As a consequence, the question subsequent twentieth century academics sought to resolve was whether an imperfect capital market can also be efficient. To which the answer was a resounding “yes”. Based on the pioneering work of Eugene Fama, which began to emerge in the 1960s, modern finance theory now hypothesises that real-world stock markets may not be perfect but are reasonably efficient. Shareholder wealth maximisation is premised on the law of supply and demand. Large numbers of investors are assumed to respond rationally to new public information, good, bad, or indifferent. They buy, sell, or hold shares in a market without too many barriers to trade. A privileged few, with access to insider information, or either the ability, time or money to analyse all public information, may periodically “beat the market” by being among the first to react to events. But share price still reverts quickly if not instantaneously to a new equilibrium value, correctly priced, in response to the technical and fundamental analyses of historical trends and the latest news absorbed by the vast majority of market constituents. Today’s trading decisions are assumed to be independent of tomorrow’s events.

  • A Comparative Analysis of Ratios
    What We Teach and What They Do: A Comparative Analysis of Ratios Dr Jennifer L. Harrison Southern Cross University, Tweed Heads, Australia Email: [email protected] Dr Anja Morton Southern Cross University, Lismore, Australia Email: [email protected] Preferred Stream: Stream 7 (Management Education and Development ) i What We Teach and What They Do: A Comparative Analysis of Ratios ABSTRACT Financial statement analysis is a skill most business/commerce bachelors’ and masters’ degree graduates will need in their workplace, irrespective of their specialisation. For this reason, most related degrees are structured so that financial statement analysis is covered in one of the compulsory first year or core subjects. As educators of future managers we have an obligation to provide our students, at this introductory level, with the opportunity to learn the latest, simple, financial statement analysis ratios. To achieve some measure of the degree to which we fulfil this obligation, a survey was carried out of the financial statement analysis chapters of Australian introductory accounting textbooks to determine the extent to which: 1. the ratios recommended in them are consistent; 2. they include the ratios recommended by Carslaw and Mills (1992) (the only other related prior research known to the authors); and 3. they include ratios used in practice. All of the textbooks surveyed recommended traditional ratios such as the current ratio, return on equity, debtors and inventory turnovers, earnings per share and debt ratio. However, cash flow ratios were found to be covered inconsistently with very limited coverage in most books surveyed. Other ratios, such as the net debt to equity ratio and net tangible asset backing, were also found to be missing, but were found to be commonly disclosed in company annual reports and were covered in other reflections of practice.

Barclays | 1Q 2015 Global Top Picks 29 March 2015 2 Barclays | 1Q 2015 Global Top Picks FOREWORD A lot has changed since we published our last Global Top Picks in December. The plunge in oil prices and the rise in the US dollar have produced clear beneficiaries in the euro area and Japan, where monetary policy continues to be extremely supportive, providing support for further upside in stock prices. As we argue in our Global Outlook: Oil, the dollar and monetary policy: it’s all (or at least mostly) good , lower inflation as a result of lower oil prices, combined with a stronger dollar, also argues for the Fed to be more cautious about raising rates than it otherwise would have been, allowing risk assets to continue to perform well. Against this continued accommodative backdrop, we raise our price targets for continental European and Japanese equities, forecasting an additional 13% and 9% of total returns from current levels to the end of 2015, respectively.

  • MEASURING EARNINGS: A
    UNIT IV COMPANY OR CORPORATE ANALYSIS Company analysis is a study of variables that influence the future of a firm both qualitatively and quantitatively. It is a method of assessing the competitive position of a firm, its earning and profitability, the efficiency with which it operates its financial position and its future with respect to earning of its shareholders. The fundamental nature of the analysis is that each share of a company has an intrinsic value which is dependent on the company's financial performance. If the market value of a share is lower than intrinsic value as evaluated by fundamental analysis, then the share is supposed to be undervalued. The basic approach is analysed through the financial statements of an organisation. The company or corporate analysis is to be carried out to get answer for the following two questions. 1. How has the company performed in comparison with the similar company in the same Industry? 2. How has the company performed in comparison to the early years? MEASURING EARNINGS: a. Internal Information: Relating to enterprise b. External Information: Out side the company Financial Indicators:- Analyze the financial position of the company. Tools: a.

Signature....................................................................................... Date................................................................................................ Word Count: 87,190 words Abstract The main objective of this study was to develop an algorithmic financial model to determine and examine the characteristics of key value drivers, earnings, net income, EBITDA, sales, and book value, that formulate the value aspects of a company to compute raw value multiples using multi-linear regression analyses of scaled value driver, Price-to-Earnings (PE), Price-to-Net_Income (PX_Earn_Com), Price-to-EBITDA (PEBITDA), Price-to-Sales (PS), and Price-to-Book (PB), against a comprehensive list of independent proxy variables. The resulting spectrum of raw value multiples is utilised in further computation that encompass the triangulation of the spectrum raw value multiples in a weighted process based on the adjusted coefficient of determination measurement, which would synthesise a raw market share price of the company (Adj. Vs_PX) comparable to Bloomberg-based share prices (PX). Effectively, the multi-linear regressive algorithmic financial model would be used for assessing market value signalling a buy or sell based on the position of synthesised market share price relative to current market share prices.
