[Upcoming event: March 19, Tokyo, co-hosted by MSGF & CFA Japan]
In January 2022, Elon Musk began acquiring an equity stake in Twitter Inc, resulting in a surprise hostile takeover bid to purchase and delist the company in April 2022. The offer of $54.20 per share represented a 38% premium on Twitter’s stock, suggesting a significant potential for additional value creation.
We cordially invite you to attend our upcoming finance seminar in Tokyo on March 19th. Jointly hosted by HKUST-NUY Stern MSGF program and CFA Japan, this seminar will examine the valuation of Twitter, and employ various valuation techniques to assess how strategic decisions can contribute to Twitter's value creation.
In practice, valuation is challenging because it requires modelling the future. These challenges are exacerbated in industries undergoing change due to new technology or changing consumer behavior. In this seminar, we will explore these challenges within the context of a social network company, where traditional valuation techniques are difficult to apply.
In this seminar, you will learn about:
Basic valuation tools and techniques
Practical application of valuation to business cases
Valuation of apps and social network companies
Elon Musk’s decision to invest in the social media industry in 2022
What you can (and cannot) learn about business cases from valuation techniques
Date: Wednesday, March 19, 2024
