Value Based Management We shall start our financial analysis based on Value Based Management principles and Ratio Analysis. VBM demonstrates how every decision that company’s management team makes can consistently create shareholder value. There are three steps to value based management:1. Mission statement must state value for shareholders at its core. 2. Measuring shareholder value consistently for the entire Dixons Group to be productive. 3. Actively managing to create shareholder value – Requires: identifying and understanding the sources of value, target setting, allocating resources, measuring performance constantly, developing reward systems and cultivating a suitable shareholder value generating culture throughout the company.
Therefore, the first approach to measure shareholder value from the perspective of a quoted company is total shareholder return (TSR) that is, share price appreciation plus dividends. It can be calculated using the following formula: D1 + (P1 – P0) TSR= P0 TSR represents the change in capital value of a company over a one-year period, plus dividends, expressed as a plus or minus percentage of the opening value. Rappaport considers a company’s stock price as the clearest measure of market expectations of its performance.
