Estimating a discount for lack of marketability (DLOM) has just become more robust with a new update to the Stout DLOM calculator. Based on feedback from users, the tool now shows the quintile low/median/high values so that you have a better frame of reference for your subject company. Now, you will see if your subject company is on the low end, high end, or somewhere in between in terms of Size Characteristics, the Balance Sheet Risk Characteristics, Profitability Characteristics, and Market Risk Characteristics. The calculator is included with the Stout Restricted Stock StudyTM which is the most widely used database of its kind for providing empirical support for a DLOM.
