VMware Valuation

No matter how good a company is, if the price that you pay to buy it is too high, you won't make much money. These valuation metrics should give you a sense of reasonable prices, but be careful with them. Always seek to understand why a valuation is changing over time.

Price Multiples

Price Multiples show how much you get for the price you pay. They can fluctuate drastically over time. Looking at price multiples over time and comparing to those of competitors will help to triangulate a reasonable valuation.

Price to Sales Ratio

Tells you how much you are paying for one dollar of sales.

VMW 9.726
CTXS 5.769
EMC 2.354
RAX 5.810

Price to Earnings Ratio

Tells you how much you are paying for one dollar of earnings.

VMW 49.92
CTXS 38.74
EMC 20.08
RAX 77.85

Price to Book

Tells you how much you are paying for one dollar of net assets (net assets is total assets - total liabilities).

VMW 7.448
CTXS 4.788
EMC 2.283
RAX 9.529

Enterprise Valuation

Enterprise Value (EV) multiples tell you what you would get if you were to buy the whole company (including paying off all debt). Similar to price multiples, they can be compared across time and with peers.

EV / EBITDA Pro

Tells you how much you pay for one dollar of earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation and amortization if you were buying the whole company.

EV / Revenue Pro

Tells you how much you pay for one dollar of sales if you were buying the whole company.

EV / EBIT Pro

Tells you how much you pay for one dollar of earnings before interest and taxes if you were buying the whole company.
