I have slogged through a number of 'valuation books', and this one was by far the best.

While the book provides a comprehensive overview, some readers might find the explanations a bit too simplified, lacking the depth needed for a thorough understanding. The writing style is accessible, making it suitable for beginners, but it may leave more seasoned investors wanting a more nuanced exploration of the subject.

Company valuation is a complex process that involves assessing a company's worth. It encompasses various methods, including discounted cash flow (DCF), comparable company analysis (CCA), and precedent transactions. However, in "The Company Valuation Playbook," Sunnucks tends to oversimplify these methods, which might hinder readers from grasping the intricacies of real-world valuation scenarios.

Very helpful - well written with clear examples. Importantly, it goes through how to actually go about valuing a company's shares - something that is desperately missing from most investment books than tend to only focus on what makes a good company. It would be particularly helpful for anyone considering a career in finance.
