Abstract
Business analysis and valuation is an essential method to estimate the
value of companies by examining methodically and accurately the companies‟ past
and current performance as well as the industry they operate in. In my thesis, the
researcher analyzes the financial statements of Mekongfish from 2010 – 2014 and
applies several steps of business analysis and valuation method: business strategy
analysis, financial analysis and prospective analysis. These steps will give necessary
information to estimate the firm‟s present value as well as to forecast its future value.
Based on the forecasted data, the firm‟s intrinsic value can be obtained to reveal to
prospective investors whether Mekongfish Co. is worth investing. The discount cash
flow model is used to measure the intrinsic value of Mekongfish stock price.
Therefore, this thesis provides referential information for the people who are
considering investing in Mekongfish stocks. At the end of the thesis, the researcher is
able to estimate that Mekongfish‟s intrinsic value is 19,556 VND. Hence, the
researcher suggests that investors should buy Mekongfish‟s stocks.
