lectures or that explores an important topic Reflect on these tweets

As no one has uploaded a presentation we will turn this into a workshop – you have 20 minutes

11INTRODUCTION

12INTRODUCTION

An option is the right, but not the obligation, to buy (or sell) an asset for a predetermined price within a predetermined period of time

Options are financial derivatives traded in financial markets

13INTRODUCTION

The value of an option depends on:

• The time before exercising the option• The value of the underlying asset• The volatility of the asset• The strike price• The interest rate

Real Options

INTRODUCTION

A Real Option is the right, but not the obligation, to invest in a business opportunity or chose a particular course of action for developing, growing or abandoning an opportunity.

17

A Real Option in R&D

INTRODUCTION

In R&D, the (real) option is to develop a new technology or product, the investment is the project and the (underlying) asset is the future cash flows from product sales.

Real options are not traded in a market.

Strategy is a sequence of

options

So identify the options

21

Flexibility can be truly valuable

22

Driving without have a complete mapFor most companies strategy is like driving without a complete map. Strategy schools talk about planned vs. emergent strategy

INTRODUCTION

Planning Driving

Having an incomplete map Adapt to signs, road andsituation

Time

Therefore it is important to identify and value your options and allow for management flexibility as new information arises

23

What are the alternatives to Real Options? Bets – Guessing

Net Present Value – several problems

Decision Tree – disregards risk of underlying assets

INTRODUCTION

24

Problems of traditional NPV

• It assumes that not investing results in flat line business performance

• It does not account for management flexibility – meaning that decisions can be deferred

• It does not account for potential growth options

• It does not value value delay and uncertainty to the same sophistication

INTRODUCTION

25

Consider RO there is a high value of flexibility

28IDENTIFY

29

Identify options – look for the clues…

IDENTIFY

”Phases”, ”Strategic Investment”, ”Milestones”, ”Alternatives”, ”Scenarios”, etc...

Examine projected cash flows: Identify the large investments – which are often discretionary – meaning they require a judgment and a decision.

30

Two conditions must be present

IDENTIFY

31

Identify the important options

IDENTIFY

What are the important things managers will learn over time

How will they use new information

Which decisions will change following new information

32

7S Framework – the different options

Flexibility has a value that should be accounted for in the valuation of a project

37VALUE

When do NPV and Option Pricing diverge?

WHEN THE INVESTMENT DECISIONS MAY BE DEFERRED

38VALUE

Conventional NPV misses the extra value associated with deferral because it assume that decisions can not be put off.

In contrast option pricing presumes the ability to defer and quantify the value of deferral

39

The two sources that drive value of deferral

VALUE

40

Time Value of Money

VALUE

It is more attractive to invest later than sooner..

..thus the first source of value is the time value of the money until the decision no longer can be deferred

41

Value of Volatility

VALUE

Uncertainty

The value of the underlying asset can go up or down –

we don’t know

42

This relates to the metrics

VALUE

Value to Cost

Cummulative Volatility

NPVq

43

The Value to Cost ratio

VALUE

Value to Cost NPVq

NPVq is a modification of the traditional NPV turned into a ratio

44VALUE

45

46

Cumulative volatility

VALUE

Cumulative Volatility

Variance of returns per unit of time multiplied with the number of periods - which expresses cumulative variance. Cumulative Volatility is the square root of the cumulative variance

47

Risk and Variance

VALUE

High Variance = High Risk

Low Variance = Low Risk

48

Uncertainty and volatility is influenced by time

VALUE

Long time = Everything can happen

Short time = Changes are predictable

has run out
