Share and valuation
INTRODUCTION

INTRODUCTION
The value of a share is first stated in the Articles of Association ofthe Company. It is also stated in the Balance sheet of all companies. The value,
stated in the Balance Sheet (or in the books of account and Articles of
Association) is called book -value of a share. The value of a share (the price) at
which it can be sold or purchased is market value which may be more or less
than the book-value.
The problems relating to valuation of shares may be discussed under the
following broad heads:
(A) Valuation of Equity Shares; and
(B) Valuation of Preference Shares.
It is the process of recording financial transactions as well as reporting on
the financial status of a business. Two reports (statements) are typically
generated in accounting process. These are (i) Balance sheet, (ii) income
statement. These five elements are (a) assets (b) liabilities (c) equities (capital)
(d) incomes and gains and (e) expenses and losses. Hence, capital is an
important component or element of financial statements. Capital of a company
is represented through number of shares issued and the value of such issued
shares. Hence, capital is an important component or element of financial
statements. Capital of a company is represented through number of shares
issued and the value of such issued shares. The value shown against such shares
in the balance sheet is the face or nominal value not the real value. In this
context we may refer to the basic accounting equation:
8/13/2019 Share and valuation

Assets = Capital + Liabilities
Or
Capital = Assets Liabilities
Assets Liabilities is equal to Net Worth. Hence, the real value of a company,
i.e., net worth is the real value of shares of a company or, in other words, the
real value of shares of a company is the net worth of that company.
The meaning of value may be subjective and objective. Value of a pen for
an examinee in the examination hall is subjective, called value -in- use. Itsvalue for a buyer is the monetary value, i.e., its price is objective value, called
value-in- exchange. Value of a share means the money value attached to the
share. It may be the book value (value written in the books of account), or the
price at which it can be sold or purchased. To value the shareholding, multiply
the number of shares by the price per share. For example, if the deceased person
owned 100 shares and their value was 1091p, the value of the shareholding is
1,091.
Knowing what an asset is worth and what determines that value is
a pre-requisite for intelligent decision making -- in choosing investments for a
portfolio, in deciding on the appropriate price to pay or receive in a takeover
and in making investment, financing and dividend choices when running a
business. The premise of valuation is that we can make reasonable estimates ofvalue for most assets, and that the same fundamental principles determine the
values of all types of assets, real as well as financial. Some assets are easier to
value than others, the details of valuation vary from asset to asset, and the
uncertainty associated with value estimates is different for different assets, but
the core principles remain the same. This introduction lays out some general
insights about the valuation process and outlines the role that valuation plays in

portfolio management, acquisition analysis and in corporate finance. It also
examines the three basic approaches that can be used to value an asset.
Unlisted shares are shares in a private company. They are not listed on arecognized stock exchange and they aren't offered to the general public. Many
family businesses are private companies.
You can't use the nominal value of the shares for your valuation unless it
accurately reflects the open market value. So if the nominal value of the
ordinary shares in the company is 1, the nominal value of 1,000 ordinary
shares is 1,000 - but this is unlikely to be the market value of the shares.
Because there's no active open market for most unlisted shares, you should look
at information normally available to shareholders such as the company's
accounts and performance status and consider the following factors to help you
decide the value:
the value of the company's assets
the economic background when the person died
the size of the shareholding and the shareholders' rights
the company's dividend policy
However you may also need to contact the company secretary or accountant to
find out the market value of unlisted shares.
Inside the Valuation Process
There are two extreme views of the valuation process. At one end are
those who believe that valuation, done right, is a hard science, where there is
little room for analyst views or human error. At the other are those who feel that
valuation is more of an art, where savvy analysts can manipulate the numbers to
8/13/2019 Share and valuation
5/59

generate whatever result they want. The truth does lies somewhere in the middle
and we will use this section to consider three components of the valuation
process that do not get the attention they deserve the bias that analysts bring to
the process, the uncertainty that they have to grapple with and the complexity
that modern technology and easy access to information have introduced into
valuation.
We almost never start valuing a company with a blank slate. All too
often, our views on a company are formed before we start inputting the numbers
into the models that we use and not surprisingly, our conclusions tend to reflect
our biases. We will begin by considering the sources of bias in valuation and
then move on to evaluate how bias manifests itself in most valuations. We will
close with a discussion of how best to minimize or at least deal with bias in
valuations.
The bias in valuation starts with the Companies we choose to value.
These choices are almost never random, and how we make them can start layingthe foundation for bias. It may be that we have read something in the press
(good or bad) about the company or heard from an expert that it was under or
over value. Thus, we already begin with a perception about the company that we
are about to value. We add to the bias when we collect the information we need
to value the firm. The annual report and other financial statements include not
only the accounting numbers but also management discussions of performance,often putting the best possible spin on the numbers. With many larger
companies, it is easy to access what other analysts following the stock think
about these companies. Zacks, I/B/E/S and First Call, to name three services
among many, provide summaries of how many analysts are bullish and bearish
about the stock, and we can often access their complete valuations. Finally, we
have the markets own estimate of the value of the company- the market price adding to the mix. Valuations that stray too far from this number make analysts
8/13/2019 Share and valuation
6/59
6
uncomfortable, since they may reflect large valuation errors (rather than market
mistakes).
In many valuations, there are institutional factors that add to this alreadysubstantial bias. For instance, it is an acknowledged fact that equity research
analysts are more likely to issue buy rather than sell recommendations, i.e., that
they are more likely to find firms to be undervalued than overvalued. This can
be traced partly to the difficulties analysts face in obtaining access and
collecting information on firms that they have issued sell recommendations on,
and partly to pressure that they face from portfolio managers, some of whom
might have large positions in the stock, and from their own firms investment
banking arms which have other profitable relationships with the firms in
question.
The reward and punishment structure associated with finding companies
to be under and over valued is also a contributor to bias. An analyst whose
compensation is dependent upon whether she finds a firm is under or overvalued will be biased in her conclusions. This should explain why acquisition
valuations are so often biased upwards. The analysis of the deal, which is
usually done by the acquiring firms investment banker, who also happens to be
responsible for carrying the deal to its successful conclusion, can come to one of
two conclusions. One is to find that the deal is seriously over priced and
recommend rejection, in which case the analyst receives the eternal gratitude ofthe stockholders of the acquiring firm but little else. The other is to find that the
deal makes sense (no matter what the price) and to reap the ample financial
windfall from getting the deal done.

A philosophical basis for valuation
A postulate of sound investing is that an investor does not pay more for
an asset than it is worth. This statement may seem logical and obvious, but it isforgotten and rediscovered at some time in every generation and in every
market. There are those who are disingenuous enough to argue that value is in
the eyes of the beholder, and that any price can be justified if there are other
investors willing to pay that price. That is patently absurd. Perceptions may be
all that matter when the asset is a painting or a sculpture, but we do not and
should not buy most assets for aesthetic or emotional reasons; we buy financial
assets for the cashflows we expect to receive from them. Consequently,
perceptions of value have to be backed up by reality, which implies that the
price we pay for any asset should reflect the cash flows it is expected to
generate. Valuation models attempt to relate value to the level of, uncertainty
about and expected growth in these cash flows.
There are many aspects of valuation where we can agree to disagree,including estimates of true value and how long it will take for prices to adjust to
that true value. But there is one point on which there can be no disagreement.
Asset prices cannot be justified by merely using the argument that there will be
other investors around who will pay a higher price in the future. That is the
equivalent of playing a very expensive game of musical chairs, where every
investor has to answer the question, "Where will I be when the music stops? before playing. The problem with investing with the expectation that there will
be a bigger fool around to sell an asset to, when the time comes, is that you
might end up being the biggest fool of all.
A measure used by owners of common shares in a firm to determine the level of
safety associated with each individual share after all debts are paid accordingly.

Formula:
Should the company decide to dissolve, the book value per common indicates
the dollar value remaining for common shareholders after all assets are
liquidated and all debtors are paid.
In simple terms it would be the amount of money that a holder of a commonshare would get if a company were to liquidate.
Maximizing Shareholder Value
The idea of maximizing shareholder value comes from interpretations of the
role of corporate governance. Corporate governance involves regulatory and
market mechanisms and the roles and relationships between a companysmanagement, its board, its shareholders, other stakeholders, and the goals by
which the corporation is governed.
In large firms where there is a separation of ownership and management and no
controlling shareholder, the principal agent issue arises between upper-
management (the "agent") and shareholders (the "principals"). The danger arises
that, rather than overseeing management on behalf of shareholders, the board of
directors may become insulated from shareholders and beholden to
management.
Thus, one interpretation of proper financial management is that the agents are
oriented toward the benefit of the principals - shareholders - in increasing their

wealth by paying dividends and/or causing the stock price or market value to
increase.
Maximizing Market Value
The idea of maximizing market value is related to the idea of maximizing
shareholder value, as market value is the price at which an asset would trade in
a competitive auction setting; for example, returning value to the shareholders if
they decide to sell shares or if the firm decides to sell.
There are many different models of corporate governance around the world.These differ according to the variety of capitalism in which they are embedded.
The Anglo-American (US and UK) "model" tends to emphasize the interests of
shareholders.
The sole concentration on shareholder value has been widely criticized,
particularly after the late-2000s financial crisis, where attention has risen to the
concern that a management decision can maximize shareholder value while
lowering the welfare of other stakeholders. Additionally, short-term focus on
shareholder value can be detrimental to long-term shareholder value.
Difference of share and stock
In today's financial markets, the distinction between stocks and shares has been
somewhat blurred. Generally, these words are used interchangeably to refer tothe pieces of paper that denote ownership in a particular company, called stock
certificates. However, the difference between the two words comes from the
context in which they are used.
For example, "stock" is a general term used to describe the ownership
certificates of any company, in general, and "shares" refers to a the ownership
certificates of a particular company. So, if investors say they own stocks, they

10
are generally referring to their overall ownership in one or more companies.
Technically, if someone says that they own shares - the question then becomes -
shares in what company.
Bottom line, stocks and shares are the same thing. The minor distinction
between stocks and shares is usually overlooked, and it has more to do with
syntax than financial or legal accuracy.
The main differences between Shares and Stocks are as follows :
Stocks are fully paid up whereas shares may be fully paid up or partly paid up.
Shares may be issued when a company is incorporated but stock cannot be
issued under such circumstances. Only fully paid shares can be converted into
stock.
Stocks is convenient method of transferring because it can be issued or
transferred in fractional parts whereas shares cannot be divided below the face
value of each share.
Stocks are not numbered whereas shares are serially numbered.
Shares are always registered and not transferable by mere delivery but stock
man may be registered or unregistered or unregistered stock can be transferred
by mere delivery.
Conversion of shares into stocks :
Conversion of fully paid shares into stock may likewise be affected by the
ordinary resolution of the company in the general meeting. Notice of the
conversion must be given to the Registrar within 30 days of the conversion, the
8/13/2019 Share and valuation
11/59
11
stock may be converted into fully paid shares following the same procedure
and notice given to the Registrar in Form no 5. In this connection, the
following provisions are important :-
1. Only fully paid shares can be converted into stocks
2. Direct issue of stock to members is not lawful and cannot be done.
3. The difference between shares and stock is that shares are transferable only
in complete units so that transfer of half or any portion of share is not
possible whereas stock is expressed in terms of any amount money and is
transferable in any money fractions.
4. Articles may be give the Board of Directors authority to fix minimum
amount of stock transferable.
5. Since stock is not divided into different units it is not required to be
numbered. Shares on the other hand must be numbered.
Share valuation: Tax controversies dissected
With increasing globalization world over, corporate world has dissolved
national boundaries and the multinational enterprises have expanded their
footprints worldwide by setting up subsidiaries, joint ventures and other form of
enterprises. The growth of these entities although a welcome move, creates
complex taxation issues for both tax authorities and the multinationalenterprises since diversity in country rules for the taxation of the associated
entities of the group cannot be viewed in isolation. In order to tackle the
complex issues involved in the transaction between two enterprises of the same
group with different tax jurisdiction, the Indian Finance Act 2001 introduced a
mechanism on Transfer Pricing (TP) under sections 92 to 92F of the Indian
Income Tax, 1961 (the Act). The Indian TP regulations provide that any
8/13/2019 Share and valuation
12/59
12
income arising from international transactions between associated enterprises
should be computed having regard to the arms length price.
Some recent changes in Indian Tax Regime
The Indian tax authorities have recently amended the definition of
International transaction through Finance Bill 2012 to plug such arrangements
of issuing shares at a price lower than the arms length price. The ambit of TP
provisions has been widened by expanding the definition of international
transactions to include capital financing; guarantees; any debt arising during
course of business; business reorganizations or restructuring irrespective of
whether or not the same has an impact on current years pro fits, income, losses
or assets; intangible properties including marketing intangibles, human assets,
technology related intangibles, etc.

OBJECTIVE
8/13/2019 Share and valuation
14/59
14
OBJECTIVE
Firms can always focus on a different objective function.
Examples would include
maximizing earnings maximizing revenues maximizing firm size maximizing market share maximizing EVA
The key thing to remember is that these are intermediate objective functions.
To the degree that they are correlated with the long term health and value of the
company, they work well.
Private companies, are done for legal or tax reasons. A partnership has to
be valued, whenever a new partner is taken on or an old one retires, and
businesses that are jointly owned have to be valued when the owners decide to
break up. Businesses have to be valued for estate tax purposes when the owner
dies, and for divorce proceedings when couples break up. While the principles
of valuation may not be different when valuing a business for legal proceedings,the objective often becomes providing a valuation that the court will accept
rather than the right valuation.
Shares that calculate interest on a daily basis
Some shares calculate interest on a daily basis but the payments are only made
once or twice a year, these types of stocks and shares will show either a marking
8/13/2019 Share and valuation
15/59
15
of 'im' or 'ik' on a daily basis. In these cases you'll need to work out their value
from the date the last payment was made until the date of death.
If the payment date has been declared the markings change to 'imx' or 'ikx'.If the person died after the payment had been declared but before it was made
you should deduct the net interest from the date the person died to the date of
the payment.
Working out the value of these is complicated and it's a good idea to use a
professional valuer to help you.
1. Shareholder value is the best measure of wealth creation for the firm.
2. Shareholder value maximization produces the greatest competitiveness.
3. Shareholder value maximization fairly serves the interests of the
companys other stakeholders.
4. To attend general meeting and vote.
5. To a share of the company's profits.
6. To a final distribution on winding up.
7. That the company be run lawful
Shares and Assets Valuation (SAV) is a specialist area within HM Revenue &
Customs (HMRC) based in Nottingham. In addition to valuing unquoted shares
we also value intangible assets (intellectual property, trademarks, patents,
goodwill etc), foreign shares, foreign residential property, bloodstock, chattels(things like antiques, art and jewellery), boats, aircraft and a whole range of
other assets. When the open market value of any of these assets is relevant to
your tax affairs, your Tax Office may instruct SAV to consider and, if
necessary, negotiate that value with you. Depending on the circumstances, you
may be able to ask SAV to consider the value once the transaction has occurred
8/13/2019 Share and valuation
16/59
16
and before you file your return, using the Post Transaction Valuation Check
(PTVC) service.
The cost of shares can be difficult to identify when you sell or dispose ofsome - but not all - of your shares. You might buy the same type of shares, in
the same company, at different times. In some cases you might buy shares of the
same class, in the same company, but at different times and prices. When you
sell or dispose of some of these shares, share identification rules match the
shares you sold with the ones you bought. The rules you must apply are set out
below. First match the shares sold or disposed of with shares you bought on that
same day. This is the 'same day' rule. If you haven't bought and sold shares on
the same day, you move on to the next step. after the sale or disposal. This is the
bed and breakfasting' rule. If you haven't bought any shares within 30 days of
the sale, you then look at shares bought at any other time. If the shares were
acquired on any other date a different rule applies. All shares acquired before
the day the shares were sold, of the same type in the same company, are pooled
to create a single asset. This is called a 'Section 104 Holding'.
If you held shares on 31 March 1982, these are included in the Section 104
Holding at their value on that day, not at their original cost.
Companies sometimes reorganise their shares - for example as a result of
mergers and take-overs. The cost of the resulting shares is subject to special
rules. Applying these rules only becomes relevant when the shares are sold or
disposed of. The rules apply when a company has done one of the following:
made a bonus issue or rights issue of shares
recognised its share capital in some other way
taken over another in exchange for issuing shares in itself
Such a take-over may involve any of the following:

This page provides some guidance on the points you should consider when
preparing/submitting a valuation of some of the main assets SAV considers. If
you have any general valuation queries, advisers at the enquiry line detailed
below will try to assist where possible. They are only able to provide general
guidance and cannot comment on specific valuations or tell you how to carry
out a valuation.
The cost of shares can be difficult to identify when you sell or dispose of
some - but not all - of your shares. You might buy the same type of shares, in
the same company, at different times.
SAV undertakes the valuation of a wide range of asset for all tax purposes. As
there is no active market for most of the assets considered by SAV, decisions
from the Courts over the years have provided guidance.
When carrying out valuations for tax purposes it is important that they are
carried out on the correct basis. Under Self Assessment procedures taxpayers
are responsible for either calculating the appropriate amount of tax due or, in the
case of individuals, for providing the appropriate figures to enable HMRC to
calculate it on their behalf. If a valuation is not provided on the correct basis ataxpayer's tax return may be challenged by HMRC. If following any challenge
the valuation has to be adjusted the taxpayer may be faced with having to pay
not only interest on any additional tax payable but penalties as well.
The correct basis of valuation for tax purposes
8/13/2019 Share and valuation
18/59
18
The correct basis of valuation for tax purposes is the 'market value' as defined in
the relevant statute. The definition of market value for Capital Gains Tax can be
found in Section 272 of the Taxation of Chargeable Gains Act 1992, for
Inheritance Tax it can be found in Section 160 of the Inheritance Tax Act 1984
and for Stamp Duty Land Tax in Section 118 of the Finance Act 2003.
These definitions are all very similar and broadly define market value as:
'The price which the property might reasonably be expected to fetch if sold in
the open market at that time, but that price shall not be assumed to be reduced
on the grounds that the whole property is to be placed on the market at one and
the same time.'
The current statutory definitions are similar to those used in earlier Acts and
over the years the above definition has been examined by the courts in
numerous cases. The case law was usefully summarized by the Court of Appeal
in the case of IRC v Gray (Executor of Lady Fox (Deceased) in 1994. The case
law has established some important assumptions that must be made when
arriving at the market value in accordance with the above definition.
The assumptions derived from case law
Case law has established the following assumptions:
the sale is a hypothetical sale
the vendor is a hypothetical, prudent and willing party to the transaction
the purchaser is a hypothetical, prudent and willing party to the
transaction (unless considered a 'special purchaser')
for the purposes of the hypothetical sale, the vendor would divide the
property to be valued into whatever natural lots would achieve the best
overall price (this is the principle of 'prudent lotting')
8/13/2019 Share and valuation
19/59
19
all preliminary arrangements necessary for the sale to take place have
been carried out prior to the valuation date
the property is offered for sale on the open market by whichever method
of sale will achieve the best price there is adequate publicity or advertisement before the sale takes place so
that it is brought to the attention of all likely purchasers
the valuation should reflect the bid of any 'special purchaser' in the
market (provided they are willing and able to purchase)
In Capital Gains Tax cases the valuation date may be the 31 March 1982 (when
required by Section 35(2) of the Taxation of Chargeable Gains Act 1992), or,
when it is necessary to assess the market value at the date of actual acquisition
or disposal, the date a binding contract was entered into.
SAV is happy to deal with you directly on all valuation matters. However,
valuation is a specialised subject and can involve highly complex issues, so you
may wish to consider appointing a professional adviser, such as, an accountant,solicitor or valuation expert to represent you. If you do, it will gladly liaise with
them too.
Unquoted shar es
For any valuation of unquoted shares, whether registered in the UK or a foreign
country, you should consider/provide the following information:
The company's performance and financial status as shown in its accounts
for, say, the last three years before the date of valuation, and any other
information normally available to its shareholders. In the case of foreign
companies you will need to provide copies of the accounts for the three
years before the date of valuation.

The size of the shareholding, and shareholders' rights. If, for example, the
holding is one that would give control of a company, it may be necessary
to agree the value of all the company's assets and to have much more
information about the company's performance and prospects than is in the
published accounts.
The company's dividend policy.
Appropriate yields and price earnings ratios of comparable companies or
sectors.
The commercial and economic background at the valuation date.
A full explanation as to how the suggested value has been calculated,including:
o the valuation approach adopted, for example Earnings, Assets,
Dividend Yield or industry specific valuation method
o any assumptions or adjustments made
o all the supporting evidence used.
Need for Valuation
The following are the circumstances where need for valuation of shares
arises :
(i) Where companies amalgamate or are similarly reconstructed, it may be
necessary to arrive at the value of the shares held by the members of the
company being absorbed or taken over. This may also be necessary to protect
the rights of dissenting shareholders under the provisions of the Companies
Act, 1956.
(ii) Where shares are held by the partners jointly in a company and dissolution
of the firm takes place, it becomes necessary to value the shares for proper
distribution of the partnership property among the partners.
(iii) Where a portion of the shares is to be given by a member of proprietary
company to another member as the member cannot sell it in the open market, it
8/13/2019 Share and valuation
21/59
21
becomes necessary to certify the fair price of these shares by an auditor or
accountant.
(iv) When a loan is advanced on the security of shares, it becomes necessary to
know the value of shares on the basis of which loan has been advanced.
(v) When preference shares or debentures are converted into equity shares, it
becomes necessary to value the equity shares for ascertaining the number of
equity shares required to be issued for debentures or preference shares which
are to be converted.
(vi) When equity shareholders are to be compensated on the acquisition of their
shares by the Government under a scheme of nationalization, then it becomesnecessary to value the equity shares for reasonable compensation to be given to
their holders.
Companies often issue shares to raise capital for operational and strategic
reasons. Shares of public companies trade on regulated stock exchanges, where
investors can place buy and sell orders. Shares are an integral part of the
economy because they are a core component of most investment portfolios.
Investors can own shares directly or indirectly through mutual funds.
When two or more companies amalgamate. When absorption of a company takes place. When some shareholders do not give their consent for reconstruction of
the company, there shares are valued for the purpose of acquisition. When shares are held by the partners jointly in a company
and dissolution takes place., it becomes necessary to value theshares for
proper distribution of partnership property amongthe partners.

TYPES OF SHARES
Share capital is the fund which is generated by issue of company share in the
market. The amount of the companys share changes with time depending on
the performance of the company in the market.

Par value is the legal capital of a share of stock.
The face value of a share of stock is known as its par value, which is the legal
capital of each share of stock. A business must retain this legal capital in its business and may not pay it out as dividends to shareholders. Face value, or par
value, has no relation to the market value of stock. Understand the importance
of par value in your small business.

PROBLEM OF THE
STUDY
8/13/2019 Share and valuation
31/59
31
PROBLEM OF THE STUDY
Using option-pricing models in valuation does have its advantages. First,
there are some assets that cannot be valued with conventional valuation models because their value derives almost entirely from their option characteristics. For
example, a biotechnology firm with a single promising patent for a blockbuster
cancer drug wending its way through the FDA approval process cannot be
easily valued using discounted cash flow or relative valuation models. It can,
however, be valued as an option. The same can be said about equity in a money
losing company with substantial debt; most investors buying this stock are
buying it for the same reasons they buy deep out-of-the-money options. Second,
option-pricing models do yield more realistic estimates of value for assets where
there is a significant benefit obtained from learning and flexibility. Discounted
cash flow models will understate the values of natural resource companies,
where the observed price of the natural resource is a key factor in decision
making. Third, option-pricing models do highlight a very important aspect of
risk. While risk is considered almost always in negative terms in discounted
cash flow and relative valuation (with higher risk reducing value), the value of
options increases as volatility increases. For some assets, at least, risk can be an
ally and can be exploited to generate additional value.
This is not to suggest that using real options models is an unalloyed good.
Using real options arguments to justify paying premiums on discounted cashflow valuations, when the options argument does not hold, can result in
overpayment. While we do not disagree with the notion that firms can learn by
observing what happens over time, this learning has value only if it has some
degree of exclusivity. We will argue that it is usually inappropriate to attach an
option premium to value if the learning is not exclusive and competitors can
adapt their behavior as well. There are also limitations in using option pricingmodels to value long-term options on non-traded assets. The assumptions made
8/13/2019 Share and valuation
32/59
32
about constant variance and dividend yields, which are not seriously contested
for short term options, are much more difficult to defend when options have
long lifetimes. When the underlying asset is not traded, the inputs for the value
of the underlying asset and the variance in that value cannot be extracted from
financial markets and have to be estimated. Thus the final values obtained from
these applications of option pricing models have much more estimation error
associated with them than the values obtained in their more standard
applications (to value short term traded options).
Shareholder value may be detrimental to a companys worth. When all of
a companys focus and strategy is concentrated on increasing share prices, the
practice and ethics of the firm can become lost because of the following
problems with the shareholder value model.
Lack of transparency, Increased Risk
Short Term Strategy Alternative: stakeholder value
There is a role for valuation at every stage of a firms life cycle. For small
private businesses thinking about expanding, valuation plays a key role when
they approach venture capital and private equity investors for more capital. The
share of a firm that a venture capitalist will demand in exchange for a capital
infusion will depend upon the value she estimates for the firm. As the
companies get larger and decide to go public, valuations determine the prices at
which they are offered to the market in the public offering. Once established,
decisions on where to invest, how much to borrow and how much to return to
the owners will be all decisions that are affected by valuation. If the objective in
8/13/2019 Share and valuation
33/59
33
corporate finance is to maximize firm value1[6] , the relationship between
financial decisions, corporate strategy and firm value has to be delineated.
As a final note, value enhancement has become the mantra of management
consultants and CEOs who want to keep stockholders happy, and doing it
right requires an understanding of the levers of value. In fact, many
consulting firms have come up with their own measures of value (EVA and
CFROI, for instance) that they contend facilitate value enhancement.

SCOPE OF STUDY
Valuation models have become more and more complex over thelast two decades, as a consequence of two developments. On the one side,
computers and calculators have become far more powerful and accessible in the
last few decades. With technology as our ally, tasks that would have taken us
days in the pre-computer days can be accomplished in minutes. On the other
side, information is both more plentiful, and easier to access and use. We can
download detailed historical data on thousands of companies and use them aswe see fit. The complexity, though, has come at a cost. In this section, we will
consider the trade off on complexity and how analysts can decide how much to
build into models. The importance of valuation of shares also arises in case of
amalgamation of companies when there is the need for having a fair valuation of
shares to settle the purchase price. Sometimes preference shares and debentures
are converted into equity shares as per the terms of issue. In such case, a fresh
valuation method should be adopted for equity shares to calculate the exchange
ratio.
If the deceased person had shares in an ISA (Individual Savings Account)
you should ask the ISA fund manager for a valuation. You should be able to
find contact details from paper work held by the deceased person. Use the
closing price on the day the person died. If you can't obtain a valuation you
should list the shares and value them in the same way as other shares. You can
deduct any managers' fees from the valuation.
The same applies to PEPs (Personal Equity Plans) and TESSAs (Tax Exempt
Special Savings Accounts).

A growing number of companies known for their hard-nosed approach to
business such as GE, Google, IBM, Intel, Johnson & Johnson, Nestl,
Unilever, and Wal-Mart have already embarked on important efforts to create
shared value by reconceiving the intersection between society and corporate
performance. Yet our recognition of the transformative power of shared value is
still in its genesis. Realizing it will require leaders and managers to develop new
skills and knowledge such as a far deeper appreciation of societal needs, a
greater understanding of the true bases of company productivity, and the ability
to collaborate across profit/nonprofit boundaries.
Capitalism is an unparalleled vehicle for meeting human needs, improving
efficiency, creating jobs, and building wealth. But a narrow conception of
capitalism has prevented business from harnessing its full potential to meet
societys broader challenges. The opportunities ha ve been there all along but
have been overlooked. Businesses acting as businesses, not as charitable donors,
are the most powerful force for addressing the pressing issues we face. The
moment for a new conception of capitalism is now; societys needs are l arge
and growing, while customers, employees, and a new generation of young
people are asking business to step up.
The purpose of the corporation must be redefined as creating shared value, not
just profit per se. This will drive the next wave of innovation and productivity
growth in the global economy.
The concept of shared value, in contrast, recognizes that societal needs,
not just conventional economic needs, define markets. It also recognizes that
social harms or weaknesses frequently create internal costs for firms such as
wasted energy or raw materials, costly accidents, and the need for remedial
training to compensate for inadequacies in education. And addressing societal
harms and constraints does not necessarily raise costs for firms, because they
8/13/2019 Share and valuation
37/59
37
can innovate through using new technologies, operating methods, and
management approaches and as a result, increase their productivity and
expand their markets.

METHOD OF DATA COLLECTION
Valuation of shares before buying them is one of the biggest problems
that beginners face because they are not familiar with the three main valuation
methods that are available to them.
So in this blog post and video, I am going to introduce you to those 3 main
valuation methods and explain how you can use them to value any business orcompany and thus its shares. The different methods of valuing shares may be
broadly classified as follows :
1. Net Assets Basis (or Intrinsic Value or Break up Value) Method.
2. Earning Capacity (or Yield Basis or Market Value) Method.
3. Dual (or Fair Value) Method.
1 Net Asset Valuation
Also known as the Sum of the Parts model, the Net Asset Valuation
method involves calculating what all the assets and liabilities of a business are
worth and then adding them all up to reach a total.
Assets include buildings, machinery, equipment, inventory, cash, investments
and so on things that the business owns and could sell to someone else.
Liabilities include bank loans, leasing arrangements and goods which the
company has bought but not yet paid for i.e. things that the business owes to
someone else.
8/13/2019 Share and valuation
39/59
39
If you were buying the business outright, you would value the company assets
and liabilities individually using a process known as due diligence.
As share investors, this method is not available to us so we need to get thesummary values from the companys Balance Sheet.
The Balance Sheet is a key document within every set of accounts and so is
available to investors in the half-year (interim) and full-year (final) results.
To make it even easier for us, the Net Asset Value (NAV ) of a company is
usually calculated for us and shown as a separate line in the Balance Sheet.
Having got the Net Asset Value for the company, we then divide this by the
total number of shares issued by the company to arrive at the net asset value per
share or book value per share .
This therefore tells us how much each share of the company is worth in terms of
its assets and liabilities.
We can then compare this with the current actual share price to decide whether
the shares are overvalued or undervalued by the stock market.
The following points should be considered while valuing of shares according to
this method:
* Goodwill must be properly valued
* The fictitious assets such as preliminary expenses, discount on issue of shares
and debentures, accumulated losses etc. should be eliminated.
* The fixed assets should be taken at their realizable value.
* Provision for bad debts, depreciation etc. must be considered.
* All unrecorded assets and liabilities ( if any) should be considered.
* Floating assets should be taken at market value.
8/13/2019 Share and valuation
40/59
40
* The external liabilities such as sundry creditors, bills payable, loan,
debentures etc. should be deducted from the value of assets for the
determination of net value.
The net value of assets, determined so has to be divided by number of equity
shares for finding out the value of share. Thus the value per share can be
determined by using the following formula:
Value Per Share=(Net Assets-Preference Share Capital)/Number Of Equity
Shares
Under this method, the value per share is calculated on the basis ofdisposable profit of the company. The disposable profit is found out by
deducting reserves and taxes from net profit. The following steps are applied for
the determination of value per share under earning capacity:
Step 1: To find out the profit available for dividend
Step 2: To find out the capitalized valueCapitalized Value =( Profit available for equity dividend/Normal rate of return)
X 100
Step 3: To find out value per share
Value per share = Capitalized Value/Number of Shares
2. Yield Or M arket Value Of Shares
The expected rate of return in investment is denoted by yield. The term
"rate of return" refers to the return which a shareholder earns on his investment.
Further it can be classified as (a) Rate of earning and (b) Rate of dividend. In
other words, yield may be earning yield and dividend yield.
a. Earning Yield
8/13/2019 Share and valuation
41/59
41
Under this method, shares are valued on the basis of expected earning and
normal rate of return. The value per share is calculated by applying following
formula:
Value Per Share = (Expected rate of earning/Normal rate of return) X Paid up
value of equity share
Expected rate of earning = (Profit after tax/paid up value of equity share) X 100
b. Dividend Yield
Under this method, shares are valued on the basis of expected dividend and
normal rate of return. The value per share is calculated by applying following
formula:
Expected rate of dividend = (profit available for dividend/paid up equity share
capital) X 100
Value per share = (Expected rate of dividend/normal rate of return) X 100
Under this method, the value per share is calculated on the basis of
disposable profit of the company. The disposable profit is found out by
deducting reserves and taxes from net profit. The following steps are applied for
the determination of value per share under earning capacity:
Step 1: To find out the profit available for dividend
Step 2: To find out the capitalized value
Capitalized Value =( Profit available for equity dividend/Normal rate of return)
X 100
Step 3: To find out value per share
Value per share = Capitalized Value/Number of Shares

3. Dual (or Fair Value) Method
This method is also known as Intrinsic Value Method, Asset Backing
Method, Equity Method, Assets Balancing Method or Assets Valuation Method.
Suffice it to say that this is the method that the stock market analysts and
professional investors use but it is not a method that I would suggest beginners
use unless you are an accountant.
All three methods have their benefits and drawbacks no single method
is best for everything.
The best one to use for your company/shares will depend on what kind of
company it is.
For asset rich businesses like property firms, the Net Asset Value method is the
most useful.
For companies with few assets, the P/E ratio comparison method is widely used.
I use these first two methods all the time for more information on the PE Ratio
and its sister asset related PBV ratio.
The DCF method is best used by professional investors when buying high
growth companies or those with predictable cash flows.
The problems relating to valuation of shares may be discussed under the
following broad heads:
(A) Valuation of Equity Shares.
After arriving at the value of the business if we eliminate the value due to the
preference shareholders, the remainder belongs to the equity shareholders.Therefore, very simply,
8/13/2019 Share and valuation
43/59
43
Value Per Equity Share = Value of Business due to Equity Shareholders / No. of
Equity Shares.
The Value of the business is arrived at by two methods Asset-based or Yield- based. Before we proceed, lets understand how to deal with different classe s of
equity shares.
Equity Value and Per Share Value
The conventional way of getting from equity value to per share value is to
divide the equity value by the number of shares outstanding. This approach
assumes, however, that common stock is the only equity claim on the firm.
In many firms, there are other equity claims as well including:
warrants, that are publicly traded management and employee options, that have
been granted, but do not trade conversion options in convertible bondscontingent value rights, that are also publicly traded.
The value of these non-stock equity claims has to be subtracted from
the value of equity before dividing by the number of shares
outstanding.
A warrant is a security issued by a company that provides the holder
with the right to buy a share of stock in the company at a fixed priceduring the life of the warrant.
A warrant is therefore a long term call option on the equity of the firm
and can be valued using option pricing models.
Warrants and other equity options issued by the firm are claims on the
equity of the firm and have to be treated as equity, which has relevance
for:
8/13/2019 Share and valuation
44/59
44
estimating debt and equity for the leverage calculation estimating per share value from total equity value
(B) Valuation of Preference Shares.
You would first have to start by checking whether they are preference
shares or equity shares. Obviously, the criteria for valuation of these types
differ. Preference shareholders have fixed dividend rights as well as right to
priority in repayment of their capital. To equity shareholders on the other hand,
belongs the entire business after settling off the claim of preference
shareholders.
Let us start with the valuation of the preference shares first. The formula for
valuation is
Actual Yield from Preference Share x Face Value of Preference Share =
Expected Yield from Preference Shares
Now let us try to apply this formula to a problem. Assume that the preference
shares of a particular company carry a right to dividend, say 12% [actual yield
in the above formula]. Now well have to narrow down as to what is the
expected yield from this company for its preference shares. We start with the
industry rate of expectation for preference shares say 11%. Then we check the
capacity of the company on the two performance parameters:
a. ability to repay the preference capital
b. ability to pay the preference dividend
Preference Shares are shares which have preference over ordinary shares
for payment of dividend or return of capital. However, they are junior to all
forms of company debt, including debentures, loan notes and bank debt on a
winding-up.
8/13/2019 Share and valuation
45/59
45
A company can be put into administration if it fails to pay interest on its
debt, but preference dividends, like ordinary dividends, are paid at the discretion
of directors. The level of discretion will depend on the terms of the prospectus
with the payment of dividends on some preference shares being mandatory
providing certain conditions (for example sufficient distributable reserves and
capital adequacy) are met while for others the directors can have absolute
discretion. This means that preference shareholders have no recourse to the
company in the event of non-payment, although the company will not be able to
pay an ordinary dividend until preference dividends have been paid.
Some Preference Shares are cumulative which means that the
company must pay any dividend arrears from previous years before it can pay
an ordinary dividend. Most bank Preference Shares are non-cumulative and
were issued by banks to boost their tier 1 capital bases.
Purchases of Preference Shares, like ordinary shares, are subject to 0.5%stamp duty. The capital gains and income tax treatment is also the same as for
ordinary shares. Preference shares are usually dealt "dirty price" i.e. with
accrued dividend in the dealing price, and not dealt separately as with bonds.
Types of Preference Shares
1.Cumulative or Non-cumulative : A non-cumulative or simple preference
shares gives right to fixed percentage dividend of profit of each year. In case no
dividend thereon is declared in any year because of absence of profit, the
holders of preference shares get nothing nor can they claim unpaid dividend in
the subsequent year or years in respect of that year. Cumulative preference
shares however give the right to the preference shareholders to demand theunpaid dividend in any year during the subsequent year or years when the
8/13/2019 Share and valuation
46/59
46
profits are available for distribution . In this case dividends which are not paid
in any year are accumulated and are paid out when the profits are available.
2.Redeemable and Non- Redeemable : Redeemable Preference shares are preference shares which have to be repaid by the company after the term of
which for which the preference shares have been issued. Irredeemable
Preference shares means preference shares need not repaid by the company
except on winding up of the company. However, under the Indian Companies
Act, a company cannot issue irredeemable preference shares. In fact, a company
limited by shares cannot issue preference shares which are redeemable after
more than 10 years from the date of issue. In other words the maximum tenure
of preference shares is 10 years. If a company is unable to redeem any
preference shares within the specified period, it may, with consent of the
Company Law Board, issue further redeemable preference shares equal to
redeem the old preference shares including dividend thereon. A company can
issue the preference shares which from the very beginning are redeemable on a
fixed date or after certain period of time not exceeding 10 years provided it
comprises of following conditions :-
1. It must be authorized by the articles of association to make such an issue.
2. The shares will be only redeemable if they are fully paid up.
3. The shares may be redeemed out of profits of the company which
otherwise would be available for dividends or out of proceeds of newissue of shares made for the purpose of redeem shares.
4. If there is premium payable on redemption it must have provided out of
profits or out of shares premium account before the shares are redeemed.
5. When shares are redeemed out of profits a sum equal to nominal amount
of shares redeemed is to be transferred out of profits to the capital
redemption reserve account. This amount should then be utilised for the purpose of redemption of redeemable preference shares. This reserve can
8/13/2019 Share and valuation
47/59
47
be used to issue of fully paid bonus shares to the members of the
company.
3.Participating Preference Share or non-participating preference shares :Participating Preference shares are entitled to a preferential dividend at a fixed
rate with the right to participate further in the profits either along with or after
payment of certain rate of dividend on equity shares. A non-participating share
is one which does not such right to participate in the profits of the company
after the dividend and capital have been paid to the preference shareholders.
Share certificate
A share certificate is a document issued by the company stating that the person
named therein is the registered holder of specified number of shares of a certain
class and they are paid up upto the amount specified in the share certificate. The
share certificate must bear the common seal of the company and also must be
stamped under the relevant stamp act. One or more directors must sign it .It
should state the name as well as occupation of the holder and number of shares ,
their distinctive number and the amount paid up.
Every company making allotment of shares must deliver the share certificate of
all shareholders within three months of allotment. In case of transfer of shares,
the share certificate must be ready for delivery within two months after the
shares are lodged with the company for transfer. If default is made in complyingwith the above provisions, the company and every officer of company who is in
default is liable to punishment by way of fine which may extent to Rs500 for
every day of default. The allotee must give notice to the company reminding of
its obligation and even then, if default is not made good within 10 days of the
notice, the allotee may apply to the Company Law Board for direction to the
company to issue such share certificate in accordance with the Act. Application
8/13/2019 Share and valuation
48/59
48
for this purpose must be made with the concerned regional bench of the
Company Law Board by way of petition. The petition should be accompanied
by the following documents :-
1. Copy of the letter of allotment issued by the company
2. Documentary evidence for the allotment of the shares or debentures for
transfer
3. Copy of the notice served on the company requiring to make good the
default
4. Any other correspondence
5. Affidavit verifying the petition
6. Bank draft evidencing payment of application fee
7. Memorandum of appearance with the Board copy of resolution of the
board for the executive Vakalat Nama as the case may be Companies act
does not prescribe any form for share certificate.
A Shareholder must keep his share certificate in safe custody or in case ofshares which are traded in demat mode, with the depository. The company may
renew or issue a duplicate certificate if such certificate is proved to have been
lost or destroyed or having being defaced or mutilated or torn or is surrendered
to the company. However, if the company, with the intention to defraud issues
duplicate certificate, the company shall be punishable with the fine upto
Rs10000 and every officer of the company who is in default with imprisonmentupto 6 months or fine upto Rs10000 or both.
Once a share certificate is issued by the company, the name of the person in
whose favour it has been issued becomes the registered shareholder. Nobody
can then deny the fact of his being the registered shareholder of the company.
Similarly, if the certificate states that on each of shares a certain amount has
been paid up, nobody can deny the fact that such amount has been paid up

CONCLUSION
Valuation plays a key role in many areas of finance -- in corporate
finance, in mergers and acquisitions and in portfolio management. The models
presented will provide a range of tools that analysts in each of these areas will
find of use, but the cautionary note sounded in this introduction bears repeating.
Valuation is not an objective exercise, and any preconceptions and biases that
an analyst brings to the process will find their way into the value. The company
fails, the lenders may claim in the liquidation for the return of their money as
creditors of the company. If the loans have been secured by the company
issuing debentures to the three shareholder/directors, they may rank as secured
creditors, which will put them in a more advantageous position than the
ordinary creditors. There may be good reasons as between the three
shareholders why they should want to see that the money committed by the
others is in the form of share capital. The decision as to the capitalization of a
company should usually be taken with appropriate legal and accountancy
advice. Company Law Solutions provides an expert service for all your
company law requirements, including share allotments, transfers and
shareholders' agreements.
This is especially important to those that are either near or currently in
their retirement years. We contend that all this talk about how dangerous it is to
invest in stocks is overblown. The evidence clearly confirms that if you investin great businesses at sound valuations, long-term risks are relatively low and
returns more than adequate to meet your needs.
To put this into another context, although it does happen, the failure of a great
business is a relatively rare occurrence. However, market mispricing, especially
when it overvalues a great business, is much more common. Moreover, the
8/13/2019 Share and valuation
52/59
52
biggest losses will generally occur more from overvaluation than any failure on
the business behind the companys part.
On the other hand, its also important to distinguish between the various levelsof overvaluation. In some cases, a slight or even a moderate overvaluation of a
companys shares, even a great company, will moderately increase risk while
simultaneously lowering long-term return. However, in the long run these
situations may not be devastating, especially for best-of-breed companies.
Influencing Businesses
Shareholders have the right to participate and vote in annual general meetings.
Small individual shareholders holding a few hundred shares may not be able to
influence companies. However, when these small investors join with mutual
funds and other institutional shareholders, they can influence corporate boards
and senior management to change strategic direction. Investors can influence
corporate strategy by simply abandoning the shares of under-performing
companies, thus driving share prices down and forcing the board to make the
necessary changes. Healthy companies mean a healthy company, which benefits
everybody.
In conclusion, its important to have a sound perspective on valuation.
Calculating current and future earnings yields are a straightforward and simple
method of accomplishing that task. When the earnings yield on stocks, which isthe inverse of the PE, is very low it should be obvious that there is not enough
return being generated by the companys fundamentals to compensate for the
risk you are taking by owning them. This situation occurs most often when the
stock is experiencing great price momentum. The more the stock rises, the
more it attracts investors as the greed response takes hold.

**Limitation**
Equity refers to the portion of a business assets that was acquired usingits own resources without needing to be indebted to other economic entities.
Equity investments refer to the purchase and holding of the capital stock shares
of corporations, which often represent ownership in those businesses. Valuating
a business equity investments in other businesses, meaning to gauge their value
and then record it, is performed using either the cost method, the equity method
or consolidated financial statements. No single one of these methods is superiorto the others in all situations and each possesses its own limitations.
Limitations on Share Ownership and Limitations on the Ability of Our
Stockholders to Effect a Change in Control of Our Company May Prevent
Takeovers That are Beneficial to Our Stockholders . One of the requirements
for maintenance of our qualification as a REIT for federal income tax purposes
is that no more than 50% in value of our outstanding capital stock may be
owned by five or fewer individuals, including entities specified in the Internal
Revenue Code, during the last half of any taxable year. Our charter contains
ownership and transfer restrictions relating to our stock primarily to assist us in
complying with this requirement; however, the restrictions may have the effect
of preventing a change of control, which does not threaten REIT status. These
restrictions include a provision that generally limits a person from beneficiallyowning or constructively owning shares of our outstanding equity stock in
excess of a 9.9% ownership interest, unless our board of directors exempts the
person from such ownership limitation, provided that any such exemption shall
not allow the person to exceed 13% of the value of our outstanding equity stock.
These provisions may have the effect of delaying, deferring or preventing
someone from taking control of us, even though a change of control might

involve a premium price for our stockholders or might otherwise be in our
stockholders best interests.
Under the terms of our shareholder rights plan, our board of directors can, in
effect, prevent a person or group from acquiring more than 15% of the
outstanding shares of our common stock. Unless our board of directors approves
the persons purchase, after that person acquires more than 15% of our
outstanding common stock, all other stockholders will have the right to
purchase securities from us at a price that is less than their then fair market
value. Purchases by other stockholders would substantially reduce the value and
influence of the shares of our common stock owned by the acquiring person.Our board of directors, however, can prevent the shareholder rights plan from
operating in this manner. This gives our board of directors significant discretion
to approve or disapprove a persons efforts to acquire a large interest in us.
Section 382 of the Internal Revenue Code generally requires a corporation to
limit the amount of its income in future years that can be offset by historic
losses, i.e. net operating loss (NOL) carry forwards and certain built-in losses,
after a corporation has undergone an ownership change. In this issue of the Tax
Insight we will provide an overview of the Section 382 limitation and valuation
considerations with respect to the calculation of the Section 382 limitation.
SECTION 382 BASICS
A loss corporation is a corporation that is entitled to use a tax attribute
carryover, such as an NOL, or a corporation with a net unrealized built-in loss.
The following basic example shows the application of Sec. 382:
Alpha Corporation is a highly suc cessful corporation wishing to acquire 100%
of the stock of an unrelated company,

Zeta Corporation.
Zeta Corporation is a private company with valuable IP which was fundedwith several rounds of preferred financing.
Zeta Corporation has generated ne t operating losses during every tax year
since inception. Thus, it is a loss corporation.
After the acquisition, Section 382 will limit the amount of Zeta NOLs
available to offset the groups future taxable
income. In addition, the Zeta NOLs may be subject to additional Section 382
limitations caused by earlier ownership changes incurred during the rounds of
financing.
The two major components of Sec. 382 are ownership change and limitation.An ownership change occurs if immediately after an owner shift or an equity
structure shift, there is a greater than 50% change in the value of the stock
owned by five percent shareholders during the testing period (generally three
years). An ownership change is triggered by the purchase and sale, redemption,
or new issuance of stock.
The factors which influence the value of shares can be broadly classified
into two groups- internal and external factors. They are stated below-
(i) Internal factors:
1. Net worth of Assets (realizable value of all assets minus all liabilities)
2. Earning capacity of assets

3. Return on investments
4. Profit after tax
5. Profit available to equity shareholders
6. Earnings per share
7. Dividend per share or Rate of dividend.
(ii) External Factors:
1. General economic condition of the country.
2. Political and social environment.
3. International economic scenario.4. International political environment.
5. Demand for shares.
6. Growth prospect of the industry.

**Suggestions**
Before determining whether the price of the stock-listed shares reflects
their fair value, let us consider the issue of different levels of the value. Thus,
from the perspective of shareholders of stock-listed companies. This approach
seems to be further substantiated by the analysis of premiums paid by investors
as they call tender offers for selling shares during which a purchase of a
controlling stake is planned. Such premiums reflects a difference between the
level of the liquid minority interest and the level of the controlling stake, or, in
some instances, the level that comprises the synergy-arising benefits (e.g.
obtainable by investors after taking over control) (level 1) or the irrational value
(e.g. taking into consideration investors sentiment).
Use form IHT35 to claim relief when you sell 'qualifying investments'
that were part of the deceased's estate at a loss within 12 months of the date of
death. Qualifying investments are general shares or securities listed on a
recognized stock exchange and/or holdings in authorized unit trusts. You need
to include all qualifying investments sold, not just those sold at a loss.
Shares and Assets Valuation (SAV) is a specialist area within HM
Revenue & Customs (HMRC) based in Nottingham. In addition to valuing
unquoted shares we also value intangible assets (intellectual property,
trademarks, patents, goodwill etc), foreign shares, foreign residential property,
bloodstock, chattels (things like antiques, art and jewellery), boats, aircraft and a
whole range of other assets. When the open market value of any of these assets
is relevant to your tax affairs, your Tax Office may instruct SAV to consider
and, if necessary, negotiate that value with you. Depending on the
circumstances, you may be able to ask SAV to consider the value once the
transaction has occurred and before you file your return, using the Post
Transaction Valuation Check (PTVC) service.

This page provides some guidance on the points you should consider when
preparing/submitting a valuation of some of the main assets SAV considers. If
you have any general valuation queries, advisers at the enquiry line detailed
below will try to assist where possible. They are only able to provide general
guidance and cannot comment on specific valuations or tell you how to carry
out a valuation.
The basis of valuation for tax purposes
SAV undertakes the valuation of a wide range of asset for all tax purposes. As
there is no active market for most of the assets considered by SAV, decisions
from the Courts over the years have provided guidance.
The correct basis of valuation for tax purposes
The correct basis of valuation for tax purposes is the 'market value' as defined in
the relevant statute. The definition of market value for Capital Gains Tax can be
found in Section 272 of the Taxation of Chargeable Gains Act 1992, for
Inheritance Tax it can be found in Section 160 of the Inheritance Tax Act 1984
and for Stamp Duty Land Tax in Section 118 of the Finance Act 2003.
The date of valuation
In Capital Gains Tax cases the valuation date may be the 31 March 1982 (when
required by Section 35(2) of the Taxation of Chargeable Gains Act 1992), or,
when it is necessary to assess the market value at the date of actual acquisition
or disposal, the date a binding contract was entered into.
