A Fistful of Valuations

By: Bud Labitan

This book offers 5 sample "intrinsic value per share" business valuations in the style that Warren Buffett and Charlie Munger may use. In each case the author tried to simulate an approach that they would take to valuing a business, based on what they have written and talked about. However, all of the growth assumptions used are the author's own. The valuation cases are estimations written in a style that emphasizes a focus on free cash flow and the number of shares outstanding. Readers are also encouraged to think about the business' competitive position. In reality, these businesses may outperform or they may underperform any of the author's projections.

By: Bud Labitan

From the author of "The Four Filters Invention of Warren Buffett and Charlie Munger," Decision Framing is a look into the six core chapters of his second book "Price To Value."

This book is intended to inspire clearer thinking by suggesting a better approach to structuring a decision. An improved approach to thinking rationally can take our skills from good to better. Why offer this shorter book and call it Decision Framing? The simple answer is Cost/Price.

1988 Valuation of Coca-Cola

1988 Valuation of Coca-Cola

By: Bud Labitan

For years, we have wondered how Warren Buffett valued Coca-Cola, (KO), stock at such a deep bargain in 1988. This book describes a simple two stage discounted cash flow model that delivers a close approximation. This exercise is our quantitative estimation of Coca Cola's Intrinsic Value Per Share in 1988. First, we describe our 2-stage "discounted cash flow" valuation model. Our estimating model is strict. It assumes a business will only "live" for 20 years. Within the model, we apply compounding growth to the first 10 years. Then, we assume a lower growth rate for years 11 till the end of year 20. Since intrinsic value is a highly subjective figure, readers can adjust their model to the quality of the business they wish to value. This book also describes the Warren Buffett secret of "Yield On Cost" when investing in a high quality business bargain.

Coach W Software

By: Bud Labitan

Coach W Software" was crafted from my imaginary conversation with Mr. Warren Buffett. The real conversation never occurred. The software generated conversation did occur on March 5, 2011. The software exists, and it is a useful tool in reviewing the concepts developed by Mr. Buffett, Mr. Charlie Munger, and Mr. Benjamin Graham. This book verges on science fiction. It is important to point out to all readers that there is no association or endorsement from Mr. Buffett or Berkshire Hathaway. This book is an unauthorized experiment in positive suggestion. It is useful to readers who are new to value investing, and readers who wish to review these great investing concepts.

A Fistful of Valuations in the style of Warren Buffett & Charlie Munger (Third Edition, 2015)

By: Bud Labitan

This book offers 5 sample "intrinsic value per share" business valuation estimations that were first performed in 2010. Done in a style that Warren Buffett and Charlie Munger may use, these valuations are based on free cash flows each business produced. In each case presented, the author, Bud Labitan, simulated an approach that Buffett and Munger might take to valuing a business, based on what they have written and talked about. However, all of the growth assumptions used are Labitan's own. No consultation or endorsement was sought with Mr. Buffett or Mr. Munger. How is this portfolio of five businesses doing after five years? If the reader had invested an equal amount of money in all five businesses in 2010, the average annual return so far would be 42%.
