Share Buyback
The Share Buyback Module assists the User in determining the Pre and Post Buyback Economic Value per share and evaluating a Share Buyback Program by Companies.
There are primarily four reasons why companies buy back their shares:
- When the stock market is valuing the Company way below its Intrinsic or Economic Value
- When there is no Value Augmenting or Investment Opportunity available
- To tax-efficiently return excess cash to the Shareholders
- To increase Financial Leverage, reducing its Cost of Capital
How does one evaluate a Share Buyback Program?
The following steps illustrate how to evaluate a Share Buyback Program:
- Determine the Economic Value of the Company and Economic Value per share
- Compare the Value arriving above with the current Market Capitalization to determine the extent of under Valuation
- Define the Share Buyback program, Number of Shares and Buyback price per share
- Build the buyback program in the Model and compute the Economic Value per share post buyback and compare with Economic Value pre buyback per share

Economic Breakeven Margin
This Module lets you compute the Economic Breakeven Margin for Company/Businesses. Economic Breakeven Margin (EBM) is the Minimum Operating Profit Margin a business needs to attain in any period to Maintain Shareholder Value for that period.
The genesis of Economic Breakeven Margin (EBM) is when a business will need to earn exactly the minimum acceptable rate of return that is equal to its Cost of Capital. In other words, any returns below its Economic Break-Even Margin will not give the desired returns to its investors. This means, that the Economic Breakeven Margin is the minimum Operating Profit Margin a business needs to attain in any period to maintain Shareholder Value for that period.
