    What are the best ways to establish a valuation on a public limited company?I have been asked to do this as part of a college project. I have decided to pick the following forms of valuation, I would appreciate peoples ideas on the methods I will be using etc....

    1) Net Asset Value
    2)Market Value
    3)Discounted model-Gordon Growth

    Cheers

    Notice Denis O'Brien bought 3% of Independant news and media over the weekend and it shot the value of the company up 7%, basically trying a hostile takeover. He probably saw that it is undervalued because of the assets it holds but more likely to get right up Tony O'Reillys nose.

    The Glazers valued Man Utd on its brand equity so as you can see there is no definite science.

    If I was to do it I would go by what assets are held as opposed to market share. This was Sean Dunnes approach when buying the durys groupd he bought out their key assets, made a play for the whole company, in turn forcing the other shareholders to decide what to do, do they buy up or sell. Dunne forced up the share price and then sold out realising a €20m profit

    As you can see there are different ways of doing things.
