Book Creating Shareholder Value

Download or read book Creating Shareholder Value written by Alfred Rappaport and published by Simon and Schuster. This book was released on 1999-10-13 with total page 225 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Economist, consultant, and Wall Street Journal contributor Alfred Rappaport provides managers and investors with the practical tools and tests for a corporate strategy that creates shareholder value. The ultimate test of corporate strategy, the only reliable measure, is whether it creates economic value for shareholders. After a decade of downsizings frequently blamed on shareholder value decision making, this book presents a new and indepth assessment of the rationale for shareholder value. Further, Rappaport presents provocative new insights on shareholder value applications to: (1) business planning, (2) performance evaluation, (3) executive compensation, (4) mergers and acquisitions, (5) interpreting stock market signals, and (6) organizational implementation. Readers will be particularly interested in Rappaport's answers to three management performance evaluation questions: (1) What is the most appropriate measure of performance? (2) What is the most appropriate target level of performance? and (3) How should rewards be linked to performance? Through the lens of high-stakes case studies, like the notable acquisition of Duracell International by Gillette, Rappaport dissects the intricate decisions and risks inherent in the merger and acquisition process. The shareholder value approach presented here has been widely embraced by publicly traded as well as privately held companies worldwide. Brilliant and incisive, this is the one book that should be required reading for managers and investors who want to stay on the cutting edge of success in a highly competitive global economy.

Book Shareholders  Strategy and Value Creation

Download or read book Shareholders Strategy and Value Creation written by Wojciech Muras and published by . This book was released on 2024 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "The central task of contemporary strategic management is to look for sources of value and to achieve above-average firm performance. The effective implementation of a value creation strategy requires a comprehensive approach, including the creation of a systemic management structure aimed at increasing company value. The concept of value-based management involves consciously inspiring, undertaking and implementing value-oriented actions. Value creation takes place at all levels of management and in all organisational units of the company; therefore, the implementation of all management functions should be assigned to this goal. Thus, the role of managers is gaining importance, especially those who are capital-linked to companies, who set goals and verify them by means of informed decisions aimed at maximising value in the long term. The book presents a multi-dimensional analysis of shareholders' impact on company value creation. The authors chose the IT sector as the area of study; this sector, being one in which modern technologies are essential, acquires special significance for the global economy. The book features: a review of notions and concepts related to the management of company value and methods of measuring it, the shareholder's impact on the creation of company value, and factors affecting long-term value creation; an analysis of the places of occurrence, power and direction of a shareholder's impact on building the long-term capacity of an IT sector company for creating the value thereof, as well as the conceptualisation and operationalisation of such impact; an analysis of the role of shareholders in IT sector companies, a profile of shareholder competence which makes the role of a shareholder unique to the company and fulfils the 'value-creating owner' postulate; an analysis of the role of hired managers cooperating with the shareholders with an indication of the significance of mutual development and the supplementation of one's own skills. The book is dedicated to scientists in the field of strategic management, value-based management, and leadership; shareholders; students of EMBA and MBA programmes; practitioners in strategic management; and current shareholders of modern technology companies (in particular from the IT sector) and future investors, for all of whom it may offer a valuable outlook on the management principles and practices in the sectors, particularly with respect to the long-term creation of company value"--

Book Strategic Leadership for Business Value Creation

Download or read book Strategic Leadership for Business Value Creation written by Don Argus and published by Springer Nature. This book was released on 2021-01-13 with total page 504 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book focuses on leadership and strategy, corporate governance, operational excellence, and corporate social responsibility. In doing so, it offers both conceptual perspectives and case studies on these topics that are targeted at business executives who want to develop and mature towards being successful value creators in their leadership roles. Authored by the former CEO of National Australia Bank (NAB), Don Argus, and business school professor Danny Samson, the book provides insights on the strategic leadership factors that make a significant and positive difference when they are executed effectively and, in contrast, what happens when ineffective leadership/ strategy are deployed. It proposes and illustrates core leadership axioms, and also delves into sustainable development as an element of strategy. The authors do this by developing and illustrating core concepts that relate to the two major case study companies of NAB and BHP. Readers will be particularly interested in the core elements of leadership and strategy, and the grounded reality of how they operated in the case studies. The authors bring insiders’ and leaders’ perspectives to these topics, including tables that document shareholder value creation, and the logic behind strategic decisions, as well as key organisational leadership and strategic decision processes.

Book Shareholder Value Creation

Download or read book Shareholder Value Creation written by Pablo Fernandez and published by . This book was released on 2019 with total page 10 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In this paper, we will define and analyze shareholder value creation. To help us understand this concept better, we will use the example of a listed company, General Electric, between 1991 and 2012.lt;brgt;lt;brgt;To obtain the created shareholder value, we must first define the increase of equity market value, the shareholder value added, the shareholder return, and the required return to equity. lt;brgt;lt;brgt;A company creates value for the shareholders when the shareholder return exceeds the required return to equity. In other words, a company creates value in one year when it outperforms expectations.lt;brgt;lt;brgt;The created shareholder value is quantified as follows:lt;brgt;Created shareholder value = Equity market value x (Shareholder return - Ke)lt;brgt;lt;brgt;The created shareholder value can also be calculated as follows:lt;brgt;Created shareholder value = Shareholder value added - (Equity market value x Ke)lt;brgt;lt;brgt;We also calculate the created shareholder value of 142 American companies.

Competitive and growth strategies are analyzed along with economic, financial, dynamic, and contingent approaches Includes a companion CD-ROM, which contains Stegmann's proven model for strategic management and stock value creation Ethical consequences of strategic decisions are introduced-showing how ethics are linked to long-term stock value creation Explains the roots of the current financial crisis by examining the link between the financial world and strategic management, and proposes possible solutions For any looking to enhance their understanding of this discipline, Strategic Value Management offers a new conceptual model for thinking about business strategy and its link to stock value creation.

Book Value Creation and Corporate Diversification

Download or read book Value Creation and Corporate Diversification written by Stuart Gillan and published by . This book was released on 2001 with total page pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: We provide a clinical perspective on corporate governance, shareholder activism and corporate restructuring by studying Sears, Roebuck amp; Co. In particular we focus on Sears' diversification into financial services during the 1980's, the poor performance that followed, and the ensuing shareholder activism aimed at pressuring management to enhance shareholder value. Ultimately the firm divested its financial services operations and refocused on retail. We estimate that the gain to Sears' shareholders over the entire diversification-refocusing period was some $1.5 billion, with approximately $1.113 billion resulting from the announced breakup of the firm. However, comparing Sears' performance to that of a homemade diversification strategy suggests that the firm's corporate diversification resulted in a significant opportunity loss for shareholders. Sears' governance structure appears to have contributed to the firm's performance problems.

Book Shareholder Value   A Business Experience

Download or read book Shareholder Value A Business Experience written by RoyE. Johnson and published by Elsevier. This book was released on 2001-10-23 with total page 483 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Shareholder Value presents a powerful and useful toolkit of market-based perspectives, analytic approaches, valuation techniques, and specific financial metrics for use in everyday business life. The author helps a broad spectrum of professionals understand the salient points and real world implications of a 'value management' movement which has taken hold in many corporations in the United States and around the world. This movement is being supported by some of the major institutional investors who influence financial markets. The main goal of 'Shareholder Value' is to help working professionals grasp the concept of value 'creators' and 'destroyers', along with the implications. He also provides tools to measure the success (or failure) of major strategic and operational initiatives and enables corporate managers to understand how shareholder value is created, and then directs behaviour toward 'value-based' planning and action. Although mainly aimed at the professional market, 'Shareholder Value' will also be of use to students of business and finance as it is intended to provide a comprehensive foundation for important elements of business strategy and acquisition valuation, corporate financial analysis, capital investments, corporate financing and economic value based metrics.AUTHOR'S REVIEW:When developing this book, I strived to achieve the following: Provide the finance professional and student of finance with a comprehensive template of shareholder value concepts and techniques - geared toward use in a corporate setting Give the non-financial professional an understanding of the underpinnings and behavioural aspects of economic value management Outline and provide details of an effective process for implementing a value-based financial performance system within a corporation ...And, combine learning with enjoyable reading by presenting technical material through a story. The "story" and "characters" are unique features of Shareholder Value - A Business Experience. The reader can get an appreciation of the environment surrounding value-based management, along with challenges that arise when transitioning from traditional "accounting" performance (where earnings and earnings per share reign supreme) to "economic" performance (where cash flow and return on investment are emphasized). Characters occupying operating and staff roles have been created to represent people that those working inside companies (large, medium and small) may encounter and, also, to invoke some humour. Insights into how to function in different corporate roles can be gained by following the characters through the story. Presents a combination of analysis and case study in which a strong technical treatment is blended with a fictional case study to offer clarity and explanation A practical and effective implementation process for a comprehensive financial performance system Offers a perspective of the role of different corporate and business unit functions in the implementation of value-based financial performance within a company
