Book, Valuation Value Metrics and Business Valuation 4/21[LS]

The themes of valuation and value creation began to have greater importance in Brazil, especially after the period of company privatization and economic opening, which occurred from the 1980s onwards. Globalization demonstrated, in practice, that companies must have the capacity to produce value economic to attract investment and to justify its economic existence. This reality brought new parameters for the evaluation of companies in Brazil, making the calculated value more reliable and closer to investors. The main objective of this book is to treat value metrics and valuation in a modern and critical way, using current techniques and concepts. The work contains 13 chapters, which are organized in a logical and ordered sequence of subjects. The first two chapters develop the fundamentals of value-based management and financial measures for evaluating business performance. Chapters 3, 4 and 5 address the cost of capital and capital structure, issues relevant to company valuation. Chapters 6, 7 and 8 present the concepts, formulations and applications of the main measures of economic value. Company valuation methodologies and techniques are covered in Chapters 9, 10, 11 and 12. In the last two, several illustrative cases of company valuation are developed, each addressing a relevant situation. Chapter 13, included in this edition, provides an overview of the valuation study and reviews the main conclusions. This edition has exclusive access to the online lecture with the author, in which he explains the main points covered in the book, and a electronic spreadsheet with a practical case of valuation.APPLICATIONRecommended work for financial analysts, consultants, managers and market professionals looking to update themselves on the themes of valuation and value creation.
