Hi everybody. Have been following the thread for about 4 wks. I also am Ex-Kiewit. If the board has set the book value at $11.65 then that figures to be about $58.00 pre-split(5 to 1). The last value placed on the stock by Kiewit before bb trading was about 54.00/sh. At 54.00/sh. I believed that the stock was not fairly valued. I thought the value should be somewhere north of $54.00 at that time because of the companies track record of keeping the value of all their securities (c and d shares) lower than employees perceived book value. (contingency $$ for lean yrs.). Other Kiewits might feel the same.
6-8 times book for telcos may be a bit high according to Zacks(4-5 times is industry average). According to Zacks, Qwest is trading at 21.9 times book. What if we value LVLT at 10 times we still end up north of $100.00. Maybe these conclusions are to bullish. Interested in other opinions.
