Recommendation

Each quarter, publicly traded firms make earnings announcements and provide guidance to Wall Street analysts. For shareholders and market experts, these declarations are the holy grail in determining the price and value proposition of a company’s stock. But financial professionals David Holland and Bryant Matthews argue that investor reliance on the earnings call misses the important financial information packed away in corporate statements. Investors, analysts and executives will find a deep reservoir of financial knowledge in this insightful text on the Credit Suisse HOLT methodology.

Take-Aways

  • Investors and analysts should assess a company through the lenses of positive or negative net present value and cash flow.
  • If a CEO’s decisions don’t alter the expected cash flows of the business, no fundamental change to its intrinsic valuation occurs.
  • Investors assessing a company’s prospects should rely on the HOLT CFROI model as a superior tool.
