The latest cost of capital infographic from Kroll

US BV News

Inflation appears to have peaked, per Kroll

The latest cost of capital infographic from Kroll says that inflation seems to have topped out toward the end of 2022. Inflation estimates over the long term rose from 2.0% in June 2020 to 2.9% in October 2022 but declined to 2.4% at the end of December 2022. Long-term inflation expectations are a key starting point to evaluate the long-term growth rate used in the terminal year for a DCF analysis.

Cost of capital inputs: The same infographic says that, as of Jan. 17, 2023, Kroll’s recommended U.S. equity risk premium (ERP) is 6.0% and the normalized risk-free rate is the higher of 3.5% or the spot 20-year U.S. Treasury yield as of the valuation date. This guidance is effective when developing USD-denominated discount rates as of June 15, 2022, and thereafter

THE VALUE OF TOKENIZED INTERESTS IN REAL ESTATE by Dennis A. Webb, MAI, ASA, FRICS 7th December 2022 at 15:0 CET

We are pleased to invite you to register for ONLINE seminar scheduled for 7th December 2022 at 15:00h CET with the topic – THE VALUE OF TOKENIZED INTERESTS IN REAL ESTATE by Dennis A. Webb, MAI, ASA, FRICS – a business and real estate appraiser, former syndicator and engineer.

 

The blockchain brings us tokens and a brave new world of fractionalization that can dramatically expand avenues for real estate investment. But is everything what it seems? In this guidance packed Webinar, Dennis will provide an eye-opening, multidisciplinary perspective on tokenized and otherwise-shared real estate ownership.

 

We will discover how the partly new tokenized ownership structure can both mitigate and worsen risk to the token holder. You will come away with principles that you can use to help your clients understand tokenization’s economic realities, and be able to:

 

  • Identify key attributes of real estate tokenization that affect value
  • Make important comparisons with familiar ownership structures
  • Ask the right questions about new risks investors might be taking on with tokens
  • Find out how the promised token marketplaces might be helpful for owners and valuers

Dennis A. Webb, MAI, ASA, FRICS, is a business and real estate appraiser, former syndicator and engineer. Webb is the principal of Primus Valuations® a specialty valuation and litigation consulting firm with offices in Los Angeles and Denver. Webb’s practice is focused on the business of holding and operating real estate, allocating value to special-use real estate, and business valuation. His passion is bringing understanding, clarity, collaboration and technology to bear on valuation of hard-to-value asset interests, a niche specialty which has long proved vexing for appraisers, advisors, the courts, and property owners alike. His mission has resulted in numerous articles and presentations for valuation professionals, lawyers and property owners. His most recent work is the definitive “Valuing Fractional Interests in Real Estate 2.0,” a complete upgrade of the valuation process for LLC, LP and common tenancy interests. A native of Los Angeles, Dennis now lives in Denver, Colorado, and enjoys writing, hiking, traveling and dancing Argentine Tango (not necessarily in that order).

INTRODUCTION

by Konstantinos P. Pallis MEng DEA REV, Chairman of the European Plant, Machinery & Equipment Valuation Standards Board and Member of the Board of TEGOVA

In this book, concepts such as ‘fixed assets’ and ‘in situ’/’ex situ’ values, scrap value and the three types of obsolescence (technological, functional and economic) and many more particular to PME are defined and standardised, in order to set a common language for valuation practice in the European Union, the European Economic Area, candidate EU member states and EU-associated and Neighbourhood countries.

This book also serves the many practicing valuers throughout Europe who are asked to assess the value of both real estate and PME for lending purposes, financial reporting, and business purposes, helping bridge both fields of practice to deliver quality valuations to the highest standard.

These Standards, like all Blue Books, are in lock step with the EU regulatory framework. Environmental protection, energy conservation, health and safety in particular are becoming drivers for the depreciation of assets; valuers need uniform guidance in dealing with such issues.

EVS-PME 2022 was conceived and designed to foster convergence in PME valuation across Europe, providing common ground and best practice regarding methodology, reporting and valuation approaches to a fast-mutating industrial landscape.

 

PREFACE

It is a euphemism to call this Book ‘timely’. It’s a perfect conjunction of right time, right place, right industrial and geopolitical context.

When TEGOVA decided to develop the standards in the spring of 2020, the motivation was the high demand from European practitioners who wanted standards tailored to the European manufacturing context and to the general principles of valuation in TEGOVA’s European Valuation Standards. To that extent, it was the same as for the first ever European Business Valuation Standards, launched that year: filling a gap and not having to rely on whatever non-European norms and training were out there.

The European Plant, Machinery & Equipment Valuation Standards Board was already at work when the world changed, with the hydra of climate, pandemic and war and the sickening realisation that Europeans had gravely compromised their prosperity, health, safety and security – and raised their carbon footprint – by extending their supply lines to far away authoritarian or rogue regimes.

To the surprise of many sceptics, the European Union rose to the challenge with a massive and comprehensive legislative agenda for the repatriation, regeneration and greening of European industry and even more surprisingly, with a common EU budget to back it up.

Good and timely regulation has a way of kick-starting change even before it hits the statutes, and it’s happening now. This puts an absolute duty on the valuation profession to undergo its own transformation and learn to put a value on the components of the industrial transformation as it happens.

So it is that EVS-PME 2022 is at once steeped in the tradition and culture of all Blue Books – it has the same format and enunciates the same central valuation principles – and yet is also very different, driven by the nature of PME and because it is the child of economic and political forces that had not yet erupted during the gestation and development of EVS 2020 and EVS-BV 2020.

With this third pillar, TEGOVA’s valuation standardisation work now covers the entire European real estate, business and industrial economy with significant synergies between the three Blue Books.
