Book value per share

Book value per share is a ratio that is calculated by subtracting all liabilities from all assets, then dividing it by the total number of outstanding shares (or equivalents). The idea behind book value per share is that if a company's calculated book value per share is higher than the current stock price, the company is undervalued. It can also be used in the reverse where if a stock price is substantially higher than the book value per share that it is overvalued and prone to corrections. It is important to note that investors using book value per share that they need to understand book value and its limitations. Limitations in book value also directly apply to book value per share.
