Summary
How do you judge the value of your strategic plans? More important, how do you give your line teams the insights and tools they need to develop better, more valuable plans? One sure way is to use a metric called EVA Momentum.
EVA Momentum is a ratio that accurately combines growth, capital, margins, returns and risk into a comprehensive score of the value added by any business plan. Essentially, EVA Momentum measures the projected rate of growth in economic profit.
From this Webcast, featuring Bennett Stewart, CEO and founder of EVA Dimensions LLC, you will learn how to:
- Calculate the net present value and share price of a business plan
- Measure and deconstruct the Momentum ratio, step-by-step, to reveal all the individual drivers of performance productivity and profitable growth
- Track key assumptions, isolate notable risks, and target value creation strategies
- Determine -- if you are a public company -- whether your EVA Momentum score will please, or disappoint, the market
