Valuation, financial analysis and benchmarking of companies' financial performance
Building Value Associates
BVA uses proprietary modelling to provide estimates of company values. We do this using Valuebuilder™, software developed jointly with PwC. The models allow an authoritative view on how much publicly quoted companies are worth.
BVA can also analyse the drivers of the company's shareholder value, and indicate the sustainability of current policies. This may be useful for forming investment opinions about a company
Corporate performance can then be benchmarked against those of close competitors. This benchmarking considers the various drivers and assesses how well or badly the target company is performing against a selected group of competitors.
BVA uses a number of additional valuation tools and methodologies.
ValueBuilder analysis
Valuebuilder™ is an innovative approach to corporate benchmarking and valuation. The approach permits the analysis of a large number of publicly quoted companies, and contains three main sections:
Benchmarking competitive performance
Companies comparative performance can be studied over the last few years going through each shareholder value driver . The model produces both statistical and graphical output making performance discrepancies easy to see.
Valuation of the target company
Based on historical, expected, or other forecasts, the company's valuation for shareholders can be calculated, and compared with other valuations. Estimates of whether a company is over or under valued can be made. This can then form the basis for future management strategies to help improve corporate performance.
Value Based Management
Detailed assignments at corporate, divisional or operating unit levels. Application of proprietary models and approaches to improve and turn around corporate performance.
Linking of business strategy to the creation of shareholder value
Use of financial modelling tools and methods to bring strategy and shareholder value creation more closely together.
BVA has access to several proprietary programs and databases that will help you easily develop superior competitive strategies.
In the public sector we can create "virtual stakeholder" companies emulating public sector contracting agencies. We can make fragmented stakeholders work more effectively together. Work on-going in the defence and consumer goods industries
Company Valuation
In addition to providing a valuation, the approach facilitates a series of "what if" estimates. For instance what corporate performance is required if a particular valuation is to be justified? How sensitive is the valuation to changes in the individual drivers? How many years of a particular corporate performance or strategy are required to justify a particular valuation?
BVA also has advanced financial modelling skills that can be applied to a number of other areas as well, including economic analysis, and market segment analyses.
