Comparative Analysis of Liquidity and Marketability Discount Models

Marketability Liquidity Holding period Liquidation period Price pressure Price risk/volatility

Page 6: Abbott Disc Lack Marketability Presentation 2

Distinction between Marketability and Liquidity Marketability and Liquidity are aligned but

distinct concepts. Marketability -The capability and ease of

transfer or salability of an asset, business, business ownership interest or security.

Liquidity-The ability to readily convert an asset, business, business ownership interest or security into cash without significant loss of principal.

Page 7: Abbott Disc Lack Marketability Presentation 2

Marketability versus liquidity: ASA definitions adopted July 2004

Marketability: The capability and ease of transfer or salability of an asset, business, business ownership interest or security

Liquidity: The ability to readily convert an asset, business, business ownership interest or security into cash without significant loss of principal

Degrees of Marketability

Registered stock in an Exchange Listed Publicly Traded firm

Registered stock in an Exchange Listed Publicly Traded firm subject to Reg 144 restrictions

Unregistered stock in an Exchange Listed Publicly Traded firm

Unregistered stock in a closely held unlisted large firm (potential to go public)

Unregistered stock in a closely held unlisted small firm

Model Classes for DLOM QMDM- Quantitative Model of Discount for

Marketability, proposed by Z. Christopher Mercer(1997) Time Value Model proposed by John J.Stockdale

(2006) CAPM based approach to calculating illiquidity

discounts proposed by David I. Tabak which deals with lack of

diversification Meulbroek model for cost of lack of diversification Proposed by Lisa K. Meulbroek(2002) Time Volatility Models

Models considering Marketability and assuming Liquidity

Silber Model LN (RPRS) = 4.33 + 0.036 LN (REV) - 0.142 LN (RBRT) + 0.174 DERN - 0.332 DCUST

LN (RPRS) is natural logarithm of the relative price of restricted stock expressed in percentage terms [(p*/p) • 100].

LN (REV), the natural logarithm of the firm's revenues (in millions);

LN (RBRT), the natural logarithm of the restricted block relative to total common stock (in per cent);

DERN, a dummy variable equal to one if the firm's earnings are positive and equal to zero otherwise; and

DCUST, a dummy variable equal to one if there is a customer relationship between the investor and the firm issuing the restricted stock and zero otherwise.

Tabak

DLOM= 1-exponent ( σs2 / σm

2)XRPXT Discount for lack of diversification RP is the equity risk premium T is the time to liquidation

Page 16: Abbott Disc Lack Marketability Presentation 2

16

Meulbroek DLOM= 1-(1/(1+R)n)

Where R is the product of the market risk premium multiplied by the difference between the asset’s beta and the ratio of standard deviation of returns for the asset and the market, a measure of incremental risk.

Models considering Delayed Liquidation as lack of Marketability

QMDM Stockdale

Page 18: Abbott Disc Lack Marketability Presentation 2

DCF Models QMDM /Stockdale

QMDM Framework The Expected Holding Period (HP) Expected Distribution Yield (D%) Expected Growth in Distributions (GD

%) Projected Terminal Value Stockdale Enhancements

Page 19: Abbott Disc Lack Marketability Presentation 2

19

Stockdale explicitly accommodates inherent

uncertainty in the estimated liquidation period.

Assumes a linear liquidation probability, the model is flexible enough to accommodate any selected probability distribution.

Allows for the starting point for the period of liquidation to be any time in future rather than the present time period

Time Volatility (Option) Models

Black Scholes Put (BSP) (Chaffee 1993) Average Price Asian Put (AAP) (Finnerty 2002) Look Back Put (LBP) (Longstaff 1995) (Abbott 2007)

Page 21: Abbott Disc Lack Marketability Presentation 2

21

BSP

Black Scholes Put (BSP) is a simple contract. It provides protection against any realized loss in value at maturity of the contract. (LOSS I) The minimum value any asset can reach is zero. Therefore, the maximum value payable under a BSP contract is the exercise price for the put.

Page 22: Abbott Disc Lack Marketability Presentation 2

22

BSP

P(T) = e-rT N(-d2)- N (-d1) Where d1= [(r+σ2/ 2) T]/ σT And d2 = d1- σT

The estimated BSP discount for lack of liquidity then becomes

P(T)/[1+P(T)]

Page 23: Abbott Disc Lack Marketability Presentation 2

23

BSP Basics

σ is the standard deviation for the returns computed for the same

d1= [Lognormal(S/K) + (r+σ2/ 2) T]/ σT

d2 = d1- σT And N(-d1) and N(-d2) are the Normal

cumulative distribution probabilities Setting S=K=1

Page 24: Abbott Disc Lack Marketability Presentation 2

24

Finnerty model :Asian Average Put

D(T) = V[ e rt N(r/ T +T / 2) –N (r/ T -T / 2)]

and 2 = σ2 T + Ln[2( e σ2 T - σ2 T -1)]

-2 Ln [e σ2 T -1]

Page 25: Abbott Disc Lack Marketability Presentation 2

25

Finnerty Model Discount

Once again setting V to 1, D(T) becomes

[ e rt N(r/ T +T / 2) –N (r/ T -T / 2)] and the corresponding discount for

lack of liquidity becomes D(T)/ 1+ D(T)

Page 26: Abbott Disc Lack Marketability Presentation 2

26

Look Back Put

F ( V,T) = V(2+ σ2 T/ 2) N(σ2T /2)

+ V ( σ2 T/2) e (-σ2T

/8) -V

Page 27: Abbott Disc Lack Marketability Presentation 2

27

Look back Put DISCOUNT

set V to 1, the LBP option premium becomes

F(T) = (2+ σ2 T/ 2) N( σ2 T /2) + (σ2 T/2) e (- σ2 T /8) -1

the corresponding LBP discount for lack of liquidity becomes

F(T)/ (2+ σ2 T/ 2) N( σ2 T /2) + (σ2 T/2) e (- σ2 T /8)
