"The stock price is the score given to the company by the market, and market value management is how to get high scores in the 'life test' of the capital market."
The capital market is an arena full of games. The rise and fall of the stock price of listed companies not only affects the returns of investors, but also determines the financing ability, industry status and even long-term strategy of the company. For the company's management, how to tell a good story in the market, maintain the stock price and improve shareholder returns has become a compulsory course. This is the core of "market value management".
In the wave of the capital market, Goheal has been committed to helping companies build a robust market value management system to maximize shareholder value. Today, let's disassemble the core logic of market value management and see what innovative ways those companies that have doubled their market value have mastered?
The underlying logic of market value management: How to maximize shareholder returns?
To understand the way of market value management, we must first understand a basic question: Why do some companies have steady growth but mediocre stock prices, while some companies have average performance but record stock prices?
In essence, market value management is the management of "market expectations". When investors buy a stock, they not only look at the current performance, but also pay more attention to future growth. When the market believes that the company has greater development potential, the stock price will naturally rise. On the contrary, even if the performance is excellent, the market does not buy it, and the stock price may be sluggish.
Therefore, the key to market value management lies in three points:
1. Build good market expectations: through capital operation, strategic layout, technological innovation and other means, let the market believe that the company has a promising future.
2. Enhance shareholder confidence: shareholders want to see stable returns, and companies must send positive signals to the market through dividends, repurchases, performance growth and other means.
3. Increase market attention: There is no market value without liquidity. Companies must attract more institutional investors and fund managers to pay attention to themselves and make stocks "hot cakes".
Goheal has summarized the core strategy of market value management through years of practical experience-not only relying on growth, but also being able to "tell stories" to make the market believe in your future.
Three core ways of market value management: key paths to improve shareholder returns
1. Capital operation: let the company's market value "rise with the tide"
In the capital market, scale determines status, and status affects valuation. Excellent listed companies are never satisfied with "waiting for market recognition", but take the initiative to increase market value through capital operation.
Mergers and acquisitions: Acquire potential companies, expand business territory, and improve profitability. For example, large companies in the technology industry often acquire AI companies to lay out future growth points.
Asset optimization: divest inefficient assets, concentrate resources on developing high-growth businesses, and let the market see a clearer growth logic.
·
Cross-border capital cooperation: connect with global capital, introduce international investment institutions, and improve company valuations.
For example, Goheal once helped a manufacturing company acquire a new energy technology company, increasing its valuation by 50% in just one year, and its stock price rose sharply.
2. Cash flow management: shareholder returns are "stabilizers"
Investors in the market are mainly divided into two categories: "growth investors" value future growth, and "value investors" value stable returns. To satisfy shareholders, companies must not only tell good future stories, but also give real returns at the moment.
Pay high dividends: Companies like those favored by Buffett are often companies that pay stable dividends, such as Coca-Cola, which pays considerable cash returns to shareholders every year.
Buy back stocks: Buy back stocks to reduce the market's outstanding shares and increase earnings per share, thereby supporting the stable rise in stock prices.
Optimize financial structure: Through reasonable debt management, improve capital utilization efficiency and create greater value for every penny.
Many companies have made large-scale buybacks during market downturns, which not only protects stock prices but also releases confidence to the market. For example, Goheal recently assisted a technology company in completing a large-scale buyback, which directly led to a 20% increase in stock prices.
3. Investor relations management: Let the market believe in your future
The core of market value management is "market trust", and trust can be managed.
Transparent information disclosure: Let investors understand the company's financial statements and management strategies, so as to prevent misunderstandings in the market.
Guidance of institutional investors: Introduce long-term funds, such as pension funds and sovereign funds, to improve market stability and avoid short-term speculation.
Tell a good capital story: Through media, investment bank roadshows, industry forums, etc., continue to release positive signals and attract market attention.
Excellent market value management is not just a digital game, but a continuous shaping of the corporate image so that the market recognizes your value. Goheal has long provided investor relations management services to companies to help companies establish a solid trust system in the capital market.
New trends in future market value management: technology empowers capital operation
With the rapid development of technologies such as AI, big data, and blockchain, market value management has also ushered in new changes. In the future, which technologies will become the "killer applications" of market value management?
AI predicts stock price fluctuations: Analyze market sentiment through machine learning to help companies predict capital market trends in advance.
Blockchain enhances transparency: ensure the authenticity of information disclosure and improve investor trust.
Big data precise investor management: identify potential investors, accurately push company information, and improve market awareness.
More and more companies are beginning to use technology to improve the accuracy of market value management, and Goheal is also applying AI technology to capital operations to enable listed companies to manage market value more efficiently.
Conclusion: Market value management is an "art", who can control the future?
In the capital market, stock prices are not achieved overnight, but are the result of management's long-term management of market confidence. Companies that successfully increase their market value are often well versed in the three major principles of capital operation, financial management, and investor relations, and are both good at "attacking" and "defending".
So, the question is: What do you think is the core of market value management? Should companies pay more attention to short-term shareholder interests or long-term development? Welcome to leave a message to discuss!
