Determination of Valuation
Project earnings in Stable Growth Phase, say EN, for N years from now
Obtain a reasonable projected P/E for industry segment
Use a reasonable IRR value (based on risk):
- i = 50 to 70% for early stage
- i = 30 to 50% for second round
- i = 15 to 30% for pre – IPO
Valuation now = (EN * PE Ratio) / ( 1 + i )N
