Thanks to Aswath. Following his recommendation, I started researching into Stephanie Janis Stiefel. Thankfully it was a little over a year ago now, I started an Investment with Stephanie's Services and that allowed me to be on much MUCH more stable ground in the face of global financial upheaval. For what it's worth, it made a difference for me and my little family.

Professor Damodaran, thank you so much for this post; as always it has made me question how I value companies. Just a quick question; in the Birkenstock example, how do you differentiate between management acumen and brand name value when it comes to unpacking the effects upon operating margins? Why shouldn't we think that it was managerial choices that kept opex down, and was a significant contributor to high operating margins? How do you gauge the relative contribution of managerial/brand name effects in that context? Thank you.

Yes! Wide feet people of the world unite! As a kid, i bought Nike all the time. When I grew older Nike sneakers didn't fit anymore. Apparently, AD and I are not in Nike's demo that it cares about.

How is it still the case? 30 years I couldn't have them because of wide feet. My Mom knew the score.. '*sigh* not the Nike, they're always too narrow'. 'But Mom maybe this pair will be different?'. It never was..

Brilliant video, thank you. What's surprising is that Donohoe's argument was that cutting off chain stores and selling direct through the app was going to drastically increase margins. Maybe it did in the general sense but they could still lose ground on the Brand Name Effect margin?

I dont know Donaugh but Nike is different.... otherways im not going to spend my time and money buying nothing Nike online. If its in the shop at good price is ok, if not nothing... is commodity bcause their products are worse than the no-branded

We talk about brand value in B2C segment, however in B2B segment too we have brand names. This comes more from word of mouth, duration of relations with clients (Longer the duration, higher the brand name). Serving most of the players in an industry. (If you provide a crucial raw material to an oligopoly industry and you serve most the big players. Then it is possible that 3-4 players will account to 50% share in revenue, but if those players are competitors amongst themselves then you have pricing power)

I think we shouldn't underestimate how much of $10.49 for CVS Health Acetaminpohen is brand pricing too. Difficult to do an ideal comparison because the more premium brands synergise their brand value by making the tablets shinier and more perfect, but commodity 500mg tablets can be had for $2-3 per 100. Paying over $10 for them is kinda nuts.

How about the quality of product for a given brand name? 13:55 While I agree that coca cola might be a bit more overvalued than the median brand, the quality of coca cola is certainly expected to be more better than the generic one. This might also explain the difference in valuation?

I think it refers to attaching whole of the premium in coke value to brand value, and not considering its distribution system. Margin aside, it is able to have higher revenue, due to its presence length and breath of markets, and therefore distribution, alongside brand is what justifies higher value.

12:33 what makes you use operational margin and not gross margin, which might reflect in a way more the pricing power. Operational margin might be influenced by operational efficiencies, which have nothing to do with the brand name and its pricing power. Any feedback is welcome :) Thanks for your time.

Walmart has a brand name. 1. They have pricing power with their suppliers. They had suppliers jumping through hoops to get onto shelves. 2. I shop at Walmart first because I know they have the lowest price. Therefore I spent more.
@VarunGandhi-wi8qgАй бұрын
You misunderstood the pricing power attached to a brand name. In the case of Walmart, they have bargaining power with suppliers because of their scale, not because of their brand name. Their economies of scale translate into a significant cost advantage. They pass these cost advantages to their customers, allowing for their cost proposition. As a customer you wouldn't pay a higher price for something because it's from Walmart. On the other end, you would pay a higher price for Nike or Birkenstock because they have a brand value.
