Valuation Principles The Union Europeenne des Experts Comptables Economiques et Financiers (UEC) recommends some principles to be respected in a correct valuation process: (Nenne die 4 (!))
1. The value is relative -> it depends on the reason why we are valuing the company 2. The value is also general ->the estimation must be objective. Different analysts valuing the same company for the same purpose should get to the same results 3. A correct valuation should be composite --> it should both assets and profits, weighted in a proper way 4. Value and price --> are two different things and this difference should emerge from the valuation criteria
28
Deutsche Version: Die Union Europeenne des Experts Comptables Economiques et Financiers (UEC) empfiehlt einige Grundsätze, die bei einem korrekten Bewertungsverfahren beachtet werden sollten: (Nenne die 4 (!))
1. Der Wert ist relativ -> er hängt von dem Grund ab, warum wir das Unternehmen bewerten 2. Der Wert ist auch allgemein ->die Schätzung muss objektiv sein. Verschiedene Analysten, die das gleiche Unternehmen zum gleichen Zweck bewerten, sollten zu den gleichen Ergebnissen kommen. 3. Eine korrekte Bewertung sollte zusammengesetzt sein --> sie sollte sowohl Vermögenswerte als auch Gewinne enthalten, die in angemessener Weise gewichtet werden 4. Wert und Preis --> sind zwei verschiedene Dinge, und dieser Unterschied sollte aus den Bewertungskriterien hervorgehen
29
Sources of information In valuing a company, we draw on three sources of information: (3) ??
1. the current financial statements of the company, for all the inputs that are required in any valuation model 2. the past history of the company, to make judgements on the growth and the cyclicality of company 3. the company competitors or peer group, to gauge how better, or worse, the company is than its competitors. This process is also called benchmarking
30
Deutsch: Bei der Bewertung eines Unternehmens stützen wir uns auf drei Informationsquellen: (3) ??
1. die aktuellen Finanzberichte des Unternehmens, um alle für ein Bewertungsmodell erforderlichen Angaben zu erhalten 2. die Vorgeschichte des Unternehmens, um das Wachstum und die Zyklizität des Unternehmens beurteilen zu können 3. die Konkurrenten des Unternehmens oder die Vergleichsgruppe, um zu beurteilen, ob das Unternehmen besser oder schlechter ist als seine Konkurrenten. Dieser Prozess wird auch als Benchmarking bezeichnet.

Market cap/Market capitalization
45
The difference between market value and market cap/market capitalization. https://www.fool.com/knowledge-center/the-difference-between-market-value-market-capital.aspx : Market capitalization reflects the equity value of a company only; it does not necessarily reflect its true market value. Whereas market capitalization represents a single measure of what a company is worth, market value takes numerous factors into account to create a broader picture of a company's financial standing. https://www.ruleoneinvesting.com/blog/financial-control/market-capitalization/ : "Market capitalization, or market cap, is not the same as market value (even if someone uses the terms interchangeably). To determine a company's true value, many metrics are used rather than only the company's stock price and outstanding shares. Not only are market capitalization and market value calculated differently, but they also affect our potential returns very differently. While market cap and market value are each a measurement of corporate assets, they each take incredibly different roads to get to what is essentially the same destination. Market cap is a very straightforward calculation, but market value is infinitely more complex. It's assessed using factors like price-to-earnings, return-on-equity, and others. Other metrics that are usually considered when calculating market value include outstanding bonds, corporate debt, interest payments, and even long-term growth potential. Market cap also tends to fluctuate over time, particularly during a business or economic downturn, such as a recession."

Invest in a capital increase or not? Welche Möglichkeiten (4) gibt es für die injection of new capital from shareholders?
1. Asking current shareholders if they are willing to join the capital increase --> yes (capital increase with the same stake) --> no (stake decreases), also called "Dilution" effect (the number of shares stays constant and value of the investment stays constant --> nur der Anteil verändert sich --> man hat also weniger Mitsprache 2. If a shareholder isn't willing to join the capital increase, the company can ask the remaining shareholders if they want even a bit more (so they get offered the increase that the other shareholder refused) 3. private placement (Privatpersonen anfragen nach den eigenen individuellen Präferenzen) 4. public placement (stock exchange, "list" bzw. listing) --> everyone has the opportunity to be a part of the capital increase --> kein Einfluss darauf welche neuen Shareholder hinzukommen --> verursacht allerdings höhere Kosten (Folie 17 ansehen !!)

a) What does financial analysis allows someone in gerneral? b) And what in particular? (3)
a) to understand information reported on a company financial statement b) and in particular: highlights the most relevant information regarding the comppany's operations management (profitablity, structure of sources and uses, etc.) Harmonize data and information to allow for a comparison of certain results / indicators through time (company's history evolution) Isolate information related to the core activities from extra-ordinary / non-recurring items / events
55
To allow for a meaningful evaluation of historical performances, analyses need to be carried at constant perimeter, i.e. no influence of extra-ordinary operations like spin-off, M&A, or similar events. In those cases, when possible, you should rely on pro-forma data (e.g. backward constant perimeter "proformization")
