CVB Financial Corporation Enterprise Value (EV)

Enterprise Value (EV), also referred to as Business Enterprise Value (BEV), reflects the market value of the entire business. In laymen’s terms, it’s the amount an acquirer would have to pay to buy a business. In valuation terms, enterprise value represents the market value of the company’s total operating assets.

How to calculate the Enterprise Value (EV)

(=) Enterprise Value (EV)

Enterprise value is not meaningful for all companies. Banks and similar financial institutionals must operate with a lot of debt on their balance sheets in order to function, so equity value tends to be the more appropriate measure of business value.

Note, Enterprise Value differs from Total Enterprise Value (TEV) because non-operating assets are not deducted from TEV.

Since enterprise value is not meaningful for CVB Financial, please refer to market value of common equity or market capitalization instead.
