Now I could be wrong but I don't think Ponder and Hayter definition of increasing shareholder value is the same as below.

Definition of 'Shareholder Value'

https://economictimes.indiatimes.com/definition/shareholder-value?from=mdr

Definition: Shareholder value is the value enjoyed by a shareholder by possessing shares of a company. It is the value delivered by the company to the shareholder.

Description: Increasing the shareholder value is of prime importance for the management of a company. [color=red]So the management must have the interests of shareholders in mind while making decisions.[/color] The higher the shareholder value, the better it is for the company and management.

For this to happen, management must exercise efficient decision making so as to earn/increase profits, thereby increasing shareholder value. On the other hand, faulty decision making using unfair tactics might damage shareholder value.
