Well, well, well, newtrader... book value takes just a little work to do... so you should be able to do this one. It's simple math learn it! Apply it! Figure it out!
I just like to know a sheep is a sheep and a wolf is a wolf without having to take its clothes off.
NT...thanks for pointing that out...where we would be without your analyses....the book value per share is NOT $.06--I repeat NOT $.06 LOL...according to the latest published figures, it is $.064757053920605404851154478344306...
thanks for keeping the board on it's toes--the valuation is left unrounded for your perusal...
To clearly distinguish the market price of shares from the core ownership equity or shareholders' equity, the term 'book value' is often used since it focuses on the values that have been added and subtracted in the accounting books of a business (assets - liabilities). The term is also used to distinguish between the market price of any asset and its accounting value which depends more on historical cost and depreciation. It may be used interchangeably with carrying value. While it can be used to refer to the business' total equity, it is most often used:
as a 'per share' value': The balance sheet Equity value is divided by the number of shares outstanding at the date of the balance sheet (not the average o/s in the period). as a 'diluted per share value': The Equity is bumped up by the exercise price of the options, warrants or preferred shares. Then it is divided by the number of shares that has been increased by those added.
