VALUABLE ANALYSIS AND COMPARISON BY MR. ARTHUR REPHARD of hand on bus och Theatre, who stole from the Naval Yard the watching

A few months ago, by the country of Mr. Arthur Shephard, we were able to present to our rendere in a summarised form the result of a value of the shares, their price at September 15, 1999, and the cues per acre of rubber tragicz most careful and searching analysis of leading rubber companies, showing the arutage arm of their trees, the cost per acre of the rubbery face

i af rubber to investors at those September perloma

We are again indebted to Mr. Shephand for permission to make extracts from a supplementary tabla in which he makes a comparison of some of the newer compacias. This table was published is. The Financier of March 1 and the demand for it was so grant that it and to be ~ropaated-in-a-subsequent isine of the papar. Afterwarth it was published in pamphlet form by The Financier, and Bollionist, and again

there was a tribute to its great value in the demand which followed, a

In the introduction to the tablo Mr. Shopband anysii

It is necessary för me to point out that no attempt has been made in the table to show what an estate may actually be worth. My object is doly to convert the market price of that share into an equivalent market valgation of the company's estate, and to show un investor who purchases shared at the present/aikiket price approximately how much he is paying. per acre for rubber land of a given age For the purpose of maintalblog a fairly correct ratio batween the values of planted land of differ by ages, a scale has been adopted such as is used by professional rabber valders, and the market price of the shares has been made to decide what is the market valuation of each year's pleating, according to the scale which I have adopted.

A

"Every care has been taken to show as accurately as possible the number of acres planted in each year, but as the reports of some companies still qoots the number of trees instead of the number of acres, some estimating het bien unavoidable. The planting distance bas been taken fato consideration, and inquiries of the compaslan' officials hara somitimass elicited the desired information. As the particalam thus obtained have been adjunted to agree with the published acreage sotals, it is believed that any discrepancy which may exist will not be of sufficient importance to vitiate the general accuracy of the calculations, d

"The average age of the rubber has been calculated to the end of 1909, and the average cost per acre of robber has been ascertained by taking the cost of the estate and development expenditure as shown in the company's balance-shest for the purchase price and preliminary expenses as given in the prospectus), after making a moderate deduction for the unplanted land-£3 per ̊acra,/

The result is shown under two bondings :---*

1-

(1) The cost as itcertained from the item in the company's prospectus or balance-shool, toss the estimated valon of the poplanted land

(The cost, after further deducting the reserve funds' and any other undivided profits which the company could (if the directors O desired) apply in reduction of the book cast of the state.

In the case of some of the older companies, where the profite in hand are considerable, the difference is important.

The price per acre the investor in paying for rubber is the essential factura of the table. The balance-sheat' of each company has been dissected, and the results, shown in the tabla have been arrived at by calculating the price at which the company would have to sell ite estate if it desired to realise all its assets, mll its abilities and return to its shareholders (as on a windlög⋅op) um equal to the present market value of the shares. ⠀

י.

"Options granted by a company over its unissund shares form a charge which will allow the option-holdar to come in at koma futura time, and share the prosperity of a company; and this, of course, can maly by dons to the detriment of the holders of the shares already issued. In. making the calculations it has been assumed, therefore, where tharde sixnd at a premium, that the options will be exercised. But they have. been valued not at the price which a buyer might be expected to pay on the Stock Exchange for a call of shares, but only as the option affects. the financial position of the company and its present shareholders-that is to say, if £1 shares are quoted at ổi 5%, it háu been assumed that the option is worth 5s. (equal to a Li share, nothing paid),

We should explain that the exigencies of space have compelled us to modify the arrangement of the table comewhat, but even in the csn- dented form we have no doubt whatever that it will be of great interest and value lo readers who are unable to procure copies of The Financier, or of Mr. Shephard's pamphlet.
