The Quicken glossary is unbelievable. here's another:
=========================================
" Intrinsic value

The sum of a company's future earnings, minus any long-term
debt. Dividing the intrinsic value by the number of shares
outstanding yields an intrinsic stock price.

Intrinsic value helps investors to assign a concrete value to a
company, based on the sum of its future earnings. A comparison
of intrinsic value to current market capitalization, or of intrinsic
price to current price, lets investors see if the market is valuing a
stock above or below its "true" worth."
===============================
Let's see, where to begin. Since earnings are after interest, if we subtract the long-term debt, aren't we double-counting? And of course there is the small matter of applying a discount rate to future earnings. I could go on, but why bother.
