Our research methodology
Performing equity research and analysis involves several key steps. Firstly, it is crucial to define the research objective and specify the areas of focus. This helps in determining the scope and purpose of the analysis. Secondly, gather relevant and accurate data from diverse sources, including financial statements, market reports, and news outlets. This data forms the foundation for the subsequent analysis.
The next phase involves conducting a comprehensive analysis of both the financial and non-financial aspects. By evaluating the company’s financial statements, assessing ratios, and analyzing industry dynamics, competitive landscape, and market conditions, insights are obtained regarding the company’s financial health and its position within the industry. Additionally, assessing the company’s business model, management team, products/services, and growth prospects allows a holistic understanding of its potential for success.
Following the analysis, valuation methods are utilized to estimate the intrinsic value of the company’s stock. This involves applying various techniques including discounted cash flow and use of multiples. The analysis also needs to be updated with market trends, macroeconomic factors, and regulatory changes that could impact the company’s performance or investment thesis. Finally, investment recommendations based on the analysis, including the rationale, risks, and potential value ranges, can be generated and presented in the research report.
