Mercer Capital | A Layperson's Guide to the Option Pricing ModelMercer Capital
Mercer Capital's whitepaper on the option pricing model, often used to value ownership interests in early-stage companies. Developed in response to the need to reliably estimate the value of different economic rights in complex capital structures, the OPM models the various capital structure components as a series of call options on underlying total equity value. Through a detailed example, Travis W. Harms explains key concepts including breakpoints and tranches in a straightforward and non-technical way, taking the mystery out of OPM terms such as “breakpoint” and “tranche”. Relative to the probability-weighted expected return method, the principal strengths of the OPM include the small number of required assumptions and auditability. The PWERM, in contrast, offers greater flexibility and transparency. Harms closes with some thought on reconciling OPM results with the market participant perspective.

The Ultimate Business Valuation
Guide for 2023
Valuing a company at different stages of its development can provide valuable insight into the state
of the company’s finances as well as the company’s current and future market position and sales
potential. Whether you are planning to sell tomorrow or just trying to gauge where you stand
compared to the competition, you can benefit from having an idea of your company’s worth. This
blog aims to provide you with a complete guide to business valuation and equip you with the
knowledge you need to apply it to your operations. So let’s kick off with an introduction.
Business valuation: A brief
introduction
Companies can have their worth estimated through a method called “business valuation” or
“company valuation.” Throughout the valuation process, every aspect of a company and each of its
subunits is evaluated to establish a dollar value.
Company valuations are performed for many purposes, including but not limited to determining a
business’s fair market value in preparation for sale, determining who owns what shares of a
business, settling tax disputes, and settling marital property disputes. In addition, many business
owners consult with external business evaluators to objectively assess their company’s worth.
Understanding the business
valuation basics
Valuation is a common topic of conversation in the world of corporate finance. If your company is
considering the sale of all or part of its operations, a merger, or an acquisition, you will likely want get
your business valued. However, when valuing a company, it’s important to consider all of the factors
that contribute to the company’s current worth to arrive at an accurate estimate.
Considerations such as management, capital structure, future earnings potential, and market value
of assets may all go into a business’s valuation. Valuation methods and techniques can range widely
between professionals, companies, and sectors. For example, financial statement analysis,
discounted cash flow models, and peer company comparisons are typical methods used to
determine a firm’s worth.
Furthermore, accurate valuation is essential for tax purposes. For tax purposes, the IRS (Internal
Revenue Service) mandates that a company’s worth be determined by its current fair market value.
For example, a firm’s shares may be subject to capital gains or gift taxes upon sale, purchase, or
transfer of ownership.
After the basics business valuation benefits must be understood to know why it’s critical in the
present era to get it done.
Benefits of business valuation:
Why should you get it done?
By considering a company’s workforce, assets, intellectual property, earnings, growth, and losses,
an appraisal or valuation can accurately portray the company’s current economic value.
Every business owner, for whatever reason, should think about having their firm valued once a year.
Being confident in the company’s real value will help the owner(s) make the right decision.

ABSTRACT
For example, if your business currently offers group benefits and you see that your firm is currently passing up a
huge opportunity by not offering voluntary benefits, perhaps partnering with a firm that specializes in these
product lines would make sense. The alliance partner presumably has: domain expertise; carrier relationships;
technological capabilities; and sales channel partners, for example. And the alliance partner candidate in turn may
be looking to affiliate with a larger firm that has: benefits plan design expertise; access to different carrier
relationships; and a large number of group benefits clients who are undoubtedly making plan changes that create
benefits gaps which could be satisfied by voluntary benefits offerings. Clearly these two businesses would be
synergistic, and could greatly benefit from each other's expertise and relationships. That would also be true of
businesses such as a property and casualty broker, a retirement planning firm, a human resource consulting
practice, or even a small payroll company.
Don't be afraid to "think outside the box" when it comes to considering potential alliance candidates. Today's
competitor or administrator or vendor may be tomorrow's ideal strategic partner depending upon what you are
trying to accomplish. Think broadly and strategically about what will benefit your clients and customers most in
the future. Don't focus on the way you conduct business today. Think about how you want to be conducting
business two or five years from now and the roadmap that will get you there.
As we talk with benefits advisers all over the country, the forward thinking, select few are looking at their existing
customer base, capabilities, and their own business models and are contemplating methods to adapt their
practices. They are evaluating their client value proposition in light of today's market realities and emphasizing the
expertise and capabilities that they possess and that will be relevant today and several years from now. I think
there is real value to this kind of self-examination. If you do not think your firm can be objective in evaluating its
capabilities, contact us and we will assist you. An ideal alliance partner candidate would possess some or all of the
following characteristics:

Many of us are growing tired of the colder weather just as we grow weary of the grind of health care reform
updates and downdrafts. And all of us are ready for the economy to improve in a meaningful and sustained
manner. In some respects it is our winter of discontent. Not to mix literary references, but it is the best of times
and it is the worst of times. Which will it be for you? That depends on whether your glass is half empty or half full.
And it depends on whether you have a plan to succeed.

When it comes to scrutinizing costs, most insurance companies can say “Been there, done that. Got the t-shirt.” Managers are familiar with the refrain from above to trim here and cut there. The typical result is flirtation with the latest management trends like lean, outsourcing and offshoring, and others. However, the results tend to be the same. Budgets reflect last year’s spend plus or minus a couple of percent in the same places.

• Real GDP growth slowed down due to problems with access to electricity caused by the destruction of manoeuvrable electricity generation by Russian drones and missiles.
• Exports and imports continued growing due to better logistics through the Ukrainian sea corridor and road. Polish farmers and drivers stopped blocking borders at the end of April.
• In April, both the Tax and Customs Services over-executed the revenue plan. Moreover, the NBU transferred twice the planned profit to the budget.
• The European side approved the Ukraine Plan, which the government adopted to determine indicators for the Ukraine Facility. That approval will allow Ukraine to receive a EUR 1.9 bn loan from the EU in May. At the same time, the EU provided Ukraine with a EUR 1.5 bn loan in April, as the government fulfilled five indicators under the Ukraine Plan.
• The USA has finally approved an aid package for Ukraine, which includes USD 7.8 bn of budget support; however, the conditions and timing of the assistance are still unknown.
• As in March, annual consumer inflation amounted to 3.2% yoy in April.
• At the April monetary policy meeting, the NBU again reduced the key policy rate from 14.5% to 13.5% per annum.
• Over the past four weeks, the hryvnia exchange rate has stabilized in the UAH 39-40 per USD range.

As of my last update, Pi is still in the testing phase and is not tradable on any exchanges.
However, Pi Network has announced plans to launch its Testnet and Mainnet in the future, which may include listing Pi on exchanges.
The current method for selling pi coins involves exchanging them with a pi vendor who purchases pi coins for investment reasons.
If you want to sell your pi coins, reach out to a pi vendor and sell them to anyone looking to sell pi coins from any country around the globe.

The sectors that had been hurt the most by the pandemic specifically reduced consumer spending, like retail, leisure, hospitality, and travel, are now experiencing massive growth in revenue and job openings.
Could this growth lead to a “Roaring Twenties”? As quickly as the U.S. economy contracted, experiencing a 9.1% drop in economic output relative to the business cycle in Q2 2020, the largest in recorded history, it has rebounded beyond expectations. This surprising growth seems to be fueled by the U.S. government’s aggressive fiscal and monetary policies, and an increase in consumer spending as mobility restrictions are lifted. Unemployment rates between June 2020 and June 2021 decreased by 5.2%, while the demand for labor is increasing, coupled with increasing wages to incentivize Americans to rejoin the labor force. Schools and businesses are expected to fully reopen soon. In parallel, vaccination rates across the country and the world continue to rise, with full vaccination rates of 50% and 14.8% respectively.
However, it is not completely smooth sailing from here. According to M Capital Group, the main risks that threaten the continued growth of the U.S. economy are inflation, unsettled trade relations, and another wave of Covid-19 mutations that could shut down the world again. Have we learned from the past year of COVID-19 and adapted our economy accordingly?
“In order for the U.S. economy to continue growing, whether there is another wave or not, the U.S. needs to focus on diversifying supply chains, supporting business investment, and maintaining consumer spending,” says Grace Feeley, a research analyst at M Capital Group.
While the economic indicators are positive, the risks are coming closer to manifesting and threatening such growth. The new variants spreading throughout the world, Delta, Lambda, and Gamma, are vaccine-resistant and muddy the predictions made about the economy and health of the country. These variants bring back the feeling of uncertainty that has wreaked havoc not only on the stock market but the mindset of people around the world. MCG provides unique insight on how to mitigate these risks to possibly ensure a bright economic future.
