Price above book value, typically indicates that investors expect the company to generate strong future earnings, possess valuable intangible assets, or maintain a competitive edge. A price above book value is common among high-growth or well-managed firms, but if not supported by fundamentals, it may also signal overvaluation. Book value is the net worth of a company as recorded on its balance sheet. It is calculated by subtracting total liabilities from total assets. When divided by the number of outstanding shares, it gives the book value per share. (Note: Market price refers to the previous day’s closing value.)
