Media Reviews
A reader from New York on Amazon.Com CFROI explains stock prices better than P/E ratios Best finance book I have read in years! The book is a quick read and does a terrific job of explaining the investment framework employed by institutional portfolio managers world-wide. CFROI brings the concept of return on invested capital to a more robust level by providing the investor with a greater understanding of stock price movement and valuation. This book is a must read if you expect to outperform the market. The increased complexity of accounting rules over the last decade has forced investors to apply an analysis process focused on a company's future cash flows. The accuracy of the CFROI valuation framework places traditional analysis and EVA at the bottom of the investor's toolbox. CFROI can help you avoid value trap stocks and step up to high PE stocks who are expected to create wealth for their shareholders.

Author Bio
He has a B.S. in Mechanical Engineering from the University of Southern California and an MBA from the University of California-Berkeley. He has been published in economics, finance, and engineering journals, and in the Wall Street Journal and other business publications. Bart's work on the CFROI valuation model dates back to the late 1960s. The Journal of Investing has published two of his recent articles. Appearing in the Summer 1996 issue, The CFROI Life Cycle is an empirical study that underpins the CFROI-model's fade rates. The CFROI Valuation Model, published in the Spring 1998 issue, presents empirical support and argument for the CFROI-model's market-derived discount rate as superior to the conventional CAPM/beta approach used for estimating firms' costs of capital.
