Editorial Review: Product Description
"Here is an essential tool for the investor: clear, practical, insightful, and concise. This book should have a long, useful life in a professional's library."
?Jeffrey P. Davis, CFA, Chief Investment Officer, Lee Munder Capital Group "This book provides a clear, comprehensive overview of equity valuation concepts and methods. It is well suited for finance practitioners who want to strengthen their understanding of equity asset valuation and as a supplemental reading in advanced undergraduate and graduate courses addressing security analysis and business valuation."
?Professor Robert Parrino, CFA, PhD, Department of Finance, Red McCombs School of Business, The University of Texas at Austin "CFA Institute has done it again. This will be a 'must' reference book for anyone serious about the nuances of equity investment valuation."
?Robert D. Arnott, Chairman, Research Affiliates "Equity Asset Valuation concisely and clearly explains the most widely used approaches to equity evaluation. In addition to thoroughly explaining the implementation of each valuation method, there is sophisticated discussion of the commonsense financial economics and accounting issues underlying the methods."
?David Blackwell, Head and RepublicBank/James W. Aston Professor of Finance, Mays Business School, Texas A&M University

Summary: Analysis of Equity Redo
Date: 2008-09-29 - 
Comment: This book is the same book with a different name. The first edition was called "Analysis of Equity Investment Valuation." After reviewing the table of contents as well as several chapters, I have the following to report: The Table of Contents is the same; and the rest of the book is the same, too. The pages don't exactly match because in the new book the block paragraph style has been chosen.
You do not need this book for the CFA. If you call the Institute, they will tell you not to purchase the source books because the program has been tailored specifically for the candidates. Instead, the Institute mandates that you buy the "program".
If you really want the book, then buy the old version for a fraction of the cost. The content is the same.

Summary: Excellent book
Date: 2008-06-25 - 
Comment: This was one of the better finance books I've come across and a definite keeper for reference. Instead of mindless rambling or chocked full of jargon, the material was concise yet contained enough detail to cover all aspects of equity valuation that one might need to know suitable for the CFA Level II prep. But even for laypeople who have no intention of taking the CFA, this book will be very easily understandable with just a rudimentary background in basic finance theory.
The layout is very logical, basically covering the four important aspects of equity valuation: DDM, Free cash flow models, price multiples, and residual income. Under each of these, the reading builds up to form a bigger picture of what needs to be understood. Examples are very clear and do not rely on specific methods of solving, such as being only relegated to math equations, spreadsheets, or financial calculators. You basically can approach any of the problems in whatever way you want. The emphasis is on understanding rather than route "do it my way" methods. The book appears to have been very well proofread, so you don't find numerical errors that can make you pull your hair out as with other books.
There is also a workbook for this series but at my time of writing, it has yet to be released. When it is out, I would give this book series six stars in strength.

Summary: An important reference book in CFA curriculum
Date: 2007-04-10 -
Comment: It is an extremely important reference book because I am preparing for CFA Level II exam. I've found the book an introductory one to illustrate basic concept in investment industry. Any one who wants to enter the investment banks,mutual funds,asset manangement corps. should have this book in hand.
I strongly recommend it to all candidates on the road to getting CFA charter, and other partitioners in investment field may also find it helpful.
