Assuming a decent P/E ratio, total stock value is probably in the 10s of $billions minimum (I know, as a private company things are different, I'm just thinking off the top of my head).
- crazycanuck 16y agoBut the E in P/E is earnings not sales, so this estimate is way too high. Better guess: start with 1x sales and adjust up or down based on how fast it's growing and how profitable you think they are. As far as public/private, if you haircut public company multiples by 10-15% you wouldn't be too far off.
- Anechoic 16y agoOops, yup you're correct. Every outside analysis seems to indicate that they're incredibly profitable (there retail products have pretty dramatic markups) so the earnings gotta be in the $100s of millions at minimum.
