Corporate Valuation presents the most up-to-date tools and techniques for more accurate valuation in a highly volatile, globalized, and risky business environment. This insightful guide takes a multidisciplinary approach, considering both accounting and financial principles, with a practical focus that uses case studies and numerical examples to illustrate major concepts. Readers are walked through a map of the valuation approaches proven most effective post-crisis, with explicit guidance toward implementation and enhancement using advanced tools, while exploring new models, techniques, and perspectives on the new meaning of value.

Business is now done in a faster, more diverse, more interconnected environment, making valuation an increasingly more complex endeavor. New types of risks and competition are shaping operations and finance, redefining the importance of managing uncertainty as the key to success. This book brings that perspective to bear in valuation, providing new insight, new models, and practical techniques for the modern finance industry.

• Gain a new understanding of the idea of "value," from both accounting and financial perspectives
• Learn new valuation models and techniques, including scenario-based valuation, the Monte Carlo analysis, and other advanced tools
• Understand valuation multiples as adjusted for risk and cycle, and the decomposition of deal multiples
• Examine the approach to valuation for rights issues and hybrid securities, and more

Traditional valuation models are inaccurate in that they hinge on the idea of ensured success and only minor adjustments to forecasts. These rules no longer apply, and accurate valuation demands a shift in the paradigm. Corporate Valuation describes that shift, and how it translates to more accurate methods.

The faster, more diverse, and greatly interconnected environment businesses operate in today makes it increasingly more complicated to accurately value them. The emergence of new types of risks and competition are reshaping operations and making risk management mandatory for success, which is precisely why Corporate Valuation gives analysts, investors, and money managers a new playbook for more accurately valuing companies.

Since the 2008 financial crisis, new regulations, technologies, and strategies have changed the face of business and finance, and this refreshing guidebook presents new insights, new models, and powerful techniques for achieving superior accuracy in real-world valuations. Determining a company's future cash flow by analyzing its risk profile provides precise results, but how you do it is sophisticated work made easy by the multidisciplinary approach inside. Complete coverage of the entire process offers a revitalizing look at the theory and fundamentals of value as well as:

• Straightforward explanations and illustrative examples showing how to choose the proper model and enhance its accuracy with advanced tools
• Pioneering tools for making better performance predictions and assessments, including scenario-based valuation, Monte Carlo analysis, and risk-adjusted valuation multiples
• Chapters dedicated to special cases such as the valuation of rights issues and of climate change risks

In a highly volatile, globalized, and risky business environment, Corporate Valuation is your reliable toolbox for staying on top of a company's true value behind the often misleading market values.
