Phililmax says: I've been looking at the valuation for the combined F&F. As I read it, the annual profits are in the $11-15 Billion per annum (combined). With ~3B shares outstanding this means about $4.00/shr (yes, it's more or less. This is a hypothetical calculation). If we just give it an 8X multiple the common should trade at $32-36.
12B income divide by 3B shares = $4.00 EPS x 8 = $32/share
Per Moelis and Don Layton: 20B income divide by 15B shares = $1.33 EPS x 8 = $10.64/share
