Measuring Shareholders’ Value

At GRUH, we believe in maximizing the wealth of its shareholders and our endeavors are in the direction of providing maximum value to our shareholders either in the form of dividend or capital appreciation. The value of Shareholders’ return is measured as follows:

A. Total Shareholders’ Return

Total Shareholder’s return includes the dividend paid by the Company as well as the capital appreciation of the shares of the Company in the stock markets. During the past five years return to shareholders has been as follows:

( in Crores)

Particulars 2010-11 2009-10 2008-09 2007-08 2006-07
Closing Market Capitalisation 1266.38 756.14 324.69 534.79 475.71
Opening Market Capitalisation 756.14 324.69 534.79 475.71 247.25
Money raised during the year from Shareholders 7.12 1.17 0.03 0.08 60.87
Net Capital Appreciation / (Depreciation) 503.12 430.28 (210.13) 59.00 167.59
Dividend including dividend tax 45.04 26.32 19.46 16.22 12.16
Total Gain / Loss 548.16 456.60 (190.67) 75.22 179.75
Gain / (Loss) to Opening Market Capitalisation (%) 72.50 140.63 (35.65) 15.81 72.70

B. Enterprise Value

Enterprise Value (EV) measures the value of a Company as on a particular date. It is calculated by making adjustments to the market capitalisation of a Company. The formula for measuring Enterprise Value is :

Enterprise Value (EV) = Market capitalisation + Total Debt – Cash Balance

With the Enterprise Value as a measure, the companies can be compared easily irrespective of their capital structure. Moreover, Enterprise value is used to calculate the ratio of EV to EBIDTA multiple.

EBIDTA stands for Earnings before Interest, Depreciation, Tax and other appropriations. Hence, it can be calculated by adding back the figures of interest, depreciation and other appropriations to the amount of Profit Before Tax (PBT). It indicates that the value of enterprise is equal to number of times of the Company’s earnings. As the figures of Interest, depreciation and tax are added back, it makes the comparison between two enterprises easier by eliminating all the accounting and tax differences.

The above measure for GRUH for a period of five years is as follows : –
