Assignment: 1) Housing Starts after suffering their worst collapse in decades appear to have bottomed out several years ago and once again are recovering. Is the American Dream like the mythical Phoenix rising from the ashes? Your take?
2) Relative Valuation
Use the company you selected for the class assignments. Complete a case study of relative valuation. Analyze the value of your subject company compared to average industry [e.g., XLF] and cohort (2-4 comparable companies) values.
Title your thread using your Company Symbol and your Name.
Assigned Discussions: Present Relative Valuation (Valuation by Comparables) -
Use appropriate relative valuation models and conduct a Valuation by Comparables of the company that you selected to study. Select a meaningful Return Ratio and Price Ratio or multiple. Consider using the most recent 3-5 annual or quarterly periods with mean/median and standard deviation. [Keep in mind you have a worksheet from Analysis Paper 1 that can be used/revised.]
How do you interpret and explain the results? Why did you choose the ratios used for the comparison?
Present Enterprise Value and EV / EBITDA Ratio -
Post the results of the Enterprise Value of the company that you have selected, along with its EV/EBITDA ratio, P/E Ratio, and PEG Ratio, along with those of a few competitors. Use normalized values - mean/median and standard deviation for industry [e.g., XLF] and cohort.
What do the results mean?
