BIA/Kelsey Strategic Advisory Report:

Facebook's Next Chapter: How Much Is the Network Worth Today, and How Can It Recapture Lost Value?


Executive Summary:

Facebook Valuation ReportAfter reporting revenues in its recent quarterly earnings call, Facebook continues to see its stock tumble. Its $38/share launch price has dipped to around $20, accompanied by a relentless scrutiny of the efficacy of its business model.

In this new report, BIA/Kelsey examines the dramatic rise and fall of Facebook and determines if the company has gone from overvalued to undervalued, or is simply misjudged.

Authored in tandem by BIA/Kelsey’s leading social media analyst and financial modeling analyst, this report offers a unique perspective on Facebook, delivering both financial intelligence and strategic projections for the company.
