United States Cellular Company Current Valuation Analysis

U S Cellular's Enterprise Value is a firm valuation proxy that approximates the current market value of a company. It is typically used to determine the takeover or merger price of a firm. Unlike Market Cap, this measure takes into account the entire liquid asset, outstanding debt, and exotic equity instruments that the company has on its balance sheet. When a takeover occurs, the parent company will have to assume the target company's liabilities but will take possession of all cash and cash equivalents.

The market value of United States Cellular is measured differently than its book value, which is the value of USM that is recorded on the company's balance sheet. Investors also form their own opinion of U S Cellular's value that differs from its market value or its book value, called intrinsic value, which is U S Cellular's true underlying value. Investors use various methods to calculate intrinsic value and buy a stock when its market value falls below its intrinsic value. Because U S Cellular's market value can be influenced by many factors that don't directly affect U S Cellular's underlying business (such as a pandemic or basic market pessimism), market value can vary widely from intrinsic value.

Please note, there is a significant difference between U S Cellular's value and its price as these two are different measures arrived at by different means. Investors typically determine if U S Cellular is a good investment by looking at such factors as earnings, sales, fundamental and technical indicators, competition as well as analyst projections. However, U S Cellular's price is the amount at which it trades on the open market and represents the number that a seller and buyer find agreeable to each party.
