Discount and Premium to NAV in Swedish Listed Property Companies / Substansrabatt och substanspremie i börsnoterade svenska fastighetsföretag - En studie om de underliggande faktorer som påverkarGustafsson, Joacim, Peng, Zhuquan January 2016 (has links)
Listed property companies trading at a discount or premium to their Net Asset Value (NAV) is a widely recognized phenomenon. Previous research within this field has primarily applied OLS-regressions and is mainly focused on U.K. and U.S. markets. This study is the first to empirically assess discounts and premiums in Swedish-listed property companies. By applying a fixed effect model controlling for panel data, this study also expands previous work and contributes to more knowledge about company-specific effects. The study covers 14 Swedish-listed property companies between the years of 2008 to 2015. Two OLS regression models and one fixed effect model were applied on cross-sectional data. Overall, the results show that the size, reputation, portfolio concentration and debt to asset ratio of a firm are negatively correlated with discount to NAV. The overall market sentiment and stock volatility are positively correlated with discount to NAV. Moreover, the overall market sentiment in tandem with firm-specific factors is believed to significantly impact discounts and premiums. Board size, insider ownership, administration costs and cross-border investments were found to not have a significant impact on discounts and premiums. Last it was also found that discounts and premiums are not determined by within variations in the subject companies, rather it is determined by across variations in the firm-specific variables. / Noterade fastighetsbolag som handlas till rabatt eller premium av sitt substansvärde är ett känt fenomen. Tidigare studier har huvudsakligen fokuserat på data från Storbritannien och USA. De studier som gjorts har primärt varit regressionsmodeller av typen OLS. Den här studien är den första som kvantitativt undersöker substansrabatt och substanspremier i svenska fastighetsbolag. Vi applicerar också en regressionsmodell av typen fixed effect, där vi kontrollerar för paneldata. Därför kan denna studie ses som en utökning gentemot tidigare studier. Denna studie omfattas av 14 noterade fastighetsbolag. Datan som används sträcker sig mellan perioden 2008 till 2015. Generellt kan sägas att storlek, rykte, portföljfokus och skulder i förhållande till totala tillgångar hos ett företag är negativt korrelerade med substansrabatt. Vidare så visar resultaten tydligt på att aktuellt marknadsförhållande tillsammans med bolagsspecifika faktorer, spelar en stor roll för skillnaden mellan aktiekurs och substansvärde. Volatilititen i en aktie och det aktuella marknadsförhållandet är båda positivt korrelerade med substansrabatt. Styrelsens storlek, insiderägande, kostnad för administration och internationella investeringar har däremot inte någon statistiskt signifikant påverkan på rabatter och premier i svenska noterade fastighetsbolag. Slutligen kan sägas att nästan inga företagsspecifika effekter hittades. De faktorer vi konstaterar ha en påverkan på substansrabatter och substanspremier varierar över hela datasetet.

Investment companies as an investment – Could a person without experience from investments bee helped by the active ownership of investment companies? / Investmentbolagen som investering – kan en person utan tidigare erfarenhet av investeringar rida på det aktiva ägandet från investmentbolag?Ahlvar, Mathias, Berg, Fredrik January 2014 (has links)
In this essay we have been studying the development of investment companies that is traded at Mid Cap and Large Cap at the Stockholm stock market. We took out five investment companies at random from the mentioned markets above. We used these companies as benchmarking for the study. To measure the development we looked at the change in the stock price and the total yield over the given time period, we then compared these to three random portfolios of 8 stocks each and the index called Six-Return index. All the companies in the random portfolios have another type of owner structure and lack Investment Company as a big owner. Those companies have a more divided ownership. In the essay we also look at the yield with consideration to the risk that is taken in the given investment in forms of Sharpe ratio and standard deviation for each portfolio. To get some extra insight we have interviewed Investor AB and Investment AB Latour. Both companies are leading investment companies in Sweden. The time period for the essay is 10 years and is stretching from 2004-01-01 until 2014-01-01. The results from the paper are that investment companies in general had a higher yield then the index and portfolios that was used as comparison. The results for the investment companies are better in terms of change in stock price and in yield but also with the consideration of the risk. The explanation of the results lies in several variables where the active ownership of the investment companies is the major part of the explanation and net asset discount together with the high dividend is another part. With these result investment companies is supposedly a very good investment for t hose that can’t beat the market, which would mean a great deal of all investors. / I denna uppsats studeras utvecklingen hos investmentbolag som handlas via Stockholmsbörsen på Mid Cap och Large Cap. Fem investmentbolag slumpades fram ifrån dessa listor och har sedan använts som jämförelsebolag. För att mäta deras utveckling har vi studerat kursförändringen samt totalavkastningen och jämfört dessa med slumpmässiga portföljer samt SIX Return index. De slumpmässiga portföljerna består av bolag utan något investmentbolag som större huvudägare. Detta resulterar i att de flesta bolagen i slumpportföljerna har ett mer splittrat ägande. I uppsatsen undersöker vi även avkastningen med hänsyn till risk i form av Sharpekvoter och standardavvikelse för varje portfölj. För att få en extra insyn i investmentbolagen har vi intervjuat Investor AB samt Investment AB Latour som är två ledande investmentbolag i Sverige. Studien tittar på en tidsperiod om 10 år mellan 2004-01-01 och 2014- 01-01. Det resultat som framkommit under studien är att investmentbolagen generellt sett har avkastat bättre än sina finansiella jämförelseobjekt. Detta med avseende på kursförändring och totalavkastning men även med hänsyn till risk. Förklaringen till detta ligger i ett antal variabler där investmentbolagens aktiva ägande är den största orsaken och substansrabatten i kombination med hög utdelning är ytterligare en orsak. Detta innebär att en portfölj med investmentbolag är en väldigt bra sparform överlag men framförallt för den som vill spara i aktier men saknar förkunskaper.

The Private Company Discount : An acquisition study of public and private companies on the Swedish marketKarlsson, Alfred, Jönsson, Emil January 2022 (has links)
The difference in valuation between private and public firms have been studied several times on the U.S. and European markets. However, we believe that the lack of studies made on the Swedish market opened a possibility for an exciting opportunity. The general conclusion drawn from the earlier studies is that there in fact does exist a discount on private companies compared to similar publicly traded ones and this study is going to examine whether this also applies on the Swedish market. After collecting data from acquisitions of private and public firms, each private firm is paired up with its closest public counterpart and the multiples are being compared. This resulted in a mean discount for private companies of 48%, 32% and 32% when comparing the EV/EBITDA, EV/Sales, and EV/Earnings multiples respectively confirming the existence of a Private Company Discount on the Swedish market.

You don't have to have a high school education to work here : an ethnography of a chainstorePrincehouse, Caroline Yvonne 01 January 1984 (has links)
This ethnography is a study of the cultural scene at one store of a chain of twenty-eight retail "discount department stores"--the Bi Mart Company, a subsidiary of the Pay 'n Save Corporation. It is an exercise of an ethnographic method developed by James Spradley that is used to uncover and describe the cultural grammar of acquired knowledge which Bi Mart employees use to define and interpret their situation and to generate and understand their work. The method is based on the assumption that culture is best learned and best described (as much as possible) from the "native" point of view.

Influencer Marketing & Impulsive Buying : A Quantitative Study On Influencer Marketing and Discount Codes Effect On Impulsive Buying and Purchase SatisfactionEgelbäck Starud, Elin, Claesson, Elsa January 2023 (has links)
Influencer marketing is a new marketing strategy that has risen in popularity to be used by businesses during the last decade. Even though studies have been previously made on influencer marketing, little research has been made specifically on influencer marketing in combination with their discount codes being offered. The main purpose of this research paper is to examine the connection between the discount codes and the effect it might have on consumers' purchase intention, behavior and impulsive buying. Furthermore, the satisfactory levels after a purchase due to influencer marketing has been examined as it has not been seen in previous studies. The findings revealed that consumers are directly affected by influencer discount codes, causing impulsive buying to a certain level and affects the purchase intentions and decision-making in a faster manner. Furthermore, consumers who had purchased products due to influencer marketing obtained a high satisfactory level post-purchase. The same result could be seen both with and without discount codes. These results contribute to a positive insight of influencer marketing for businesses as the majority of the consumers were satisfied with their purchases. The research paper is written in english.
