      Book Value (BV) Per Share

      • Bottomline

      Book value is the value of the company’s assets which can be received by the shareholders in the event of company’s liquidation or during bankruptcy. Thus its the residual value after paying off all the liabilities (debt, borrowings and payables) and preference holders in the event of liquidation. Thus it’s a true value of a business. Positive BV means that the assets are more than the liabilities and vice a versa. If BV is negative, that means the company will go in for insolvency proceedings.

      You can also watch the below video on Everything you want to know about Book value per share:

      Impact of Book Value per Share

      BV is a company’s net asset value. At the time of liquidation of a company, the book value indicates the amount each shareholder will receive after all assets are liquidated and all the liabilities are settled. This ratio is used by investors to determine whether a stock price is undervalued or overvalued. If the price to book value per share is less than one, it means that the stock is trading below its book value.

      If a business can increase its Book Value per share, investors may view the stock as more valuable, and the stock price may increase further. BV is majorly arrived at taking into account historical prices of assets thus market value should be the best judge for any investment or liquidation decision. Market value takes into account the future growth prospects of the company.

      How does Book Value increase or decrease

      If the company goes in for buybacks or open offer then the book value of the share decreases. This increase or decrease happens due to change in Total Outstanding shares. Again if the Total Assets increases or liabilities reduces then also the BV increases and if the Investments (a part of Assets) are sold off or debt is increased (in the liabilities side) then the BV decreases.

      Exceptions

      The BV per share of different companies from different sectors cannot be compared since it shows a major variation. Hence, the formula is restricted to different companies in the same sector. If we compare between sectors it will show a major aberration. Secondly, the Assets under management are not valued at market price in the balance sheet and thus represents the value at the time of its purchase and also the depreciation shown can be more than what is actually shown.

      Formula

      Book Value per share = Total Equity – Preferred Equity/ Total Outstanding Shares

      Suppose a company’s total assets is Rs 12 crores and liabilities is Rs 2 crores, its preferred Equity is Rs 3 crores and the total outstanding shares are 3.5 crores, then its book value per share = {(12-2)-3}/3.5= Rs 2
