Equity Mature issue: based on

current market price and market conditions, small premium for dilution; comparables

Do valuation ratios make sense?• Price/Earnings (P/E) ratios

and variants (EBIT multiples, EBITDA multiples, Cash Flow multiples)

• Price/Book (P/BV) ratios and variants (Tobin's Q)

• Price/Sales ratios

It depends on how they are used -- and what’s behind them!

Discounted Cashflow Valuation: Basis for Approach

where n = Life of the asset CFt = Cashflow in period t r = Discount rate reflecting the

riskiness of the estimated cashflows

3. What does a company have to do to ensure a successful IPO? What makes shares attractive to investors?
