A Guide to Valuation Methods for Listed Companies & Their Assets valugenius.in/blog/a-guide-to-valuation-methods-for-listed-companies-their-assets @Valugenius Determining the fair value of a company is a critical aspect of financial analysis, especially for listed entities. Accurate business valuation methods ensure informed decision-making for stakeholders, whether for M&A valuation, regulatory compliance, or strategic planning. The valuation process incorporates various approaches, tailored to the company’s characteristics and valuation objectives. Below are the most effective types of financial models and valuation methods for listed companies. 1. Market Approach The Market Approach relies on market data to estimate the company’s value by benchmarking it against peers or recent transactions. It is highly effective in valuing a company operating in dynamic, competitive industries. a. Comparable Company Analysis (CCA) This method evaluates key valuation metrics such as Price-to-Earnings (P/E), Enterprise Value-to-EBITDA (EV/EBITDA), and Price-to-Book Value of similar publicly traded companies. These metrics are then applied to the target company’s financial data to estimate its value, ensuring precision in asset valuation. 1/5

  2. b. Comparable Transaction Analysis This method assesses the value of a company by analyzing recent Valuation for Mergers & Acquisitions in the same industry. Transaction multiples like EV/Sales or EV/EBITDA provide a benchmark for the target company’s value. c. Market Price Method For listed companies with actively traded stocks, this method directly references the current market price. Adjustments may account for anomalies such as speculative trading or lack of liquidity. 2. Income Approach The Income Approach evaluates the company’s ability to generate future economic benefits, focusing on projected cash flows. 2/5

Includes a terminal value for cash flows beyond the projection period, making it ideal for long-term brand valuation. b. Dividend Discount Model (DDM) Used for companies that distribute consistent dividends. The model values the company by discounting future dividends to their present value, reflecting the company’s financial health. 3. Asset-Based Approach The Asset-Based Approach centers on the company’s net assets, offering a straightforward method for asset valuation. a. Net Asset Value (NAV) Method Calculates the company’s equity by subtracting liabilities from the fair value of assets. Commonly used for asset-heavy companies or those undergoing liquidation. b. Replacement Cost Method Focuses on the cost of replacing the company’s existing assets, often used for infrastructure-intensive industries. 4.
