KGV von 27,4 bzw. 19,8 Auf der Basis von 10,87 in Q3 aus dem letzten Posting ergibt sich eine Jahres-Run­-Rate von 43,5 und bei einem Kurs von 1190 ein KGV von 27,4.

Auf der Basis von 15,06 in Q4 aus dem letzten Posting ergibt sich eine Jahres-Run­-Rate von 60,24 und bei einem Kurs von 1190 ein KGV von 19,8.

 

Vergleichte diese KGV's einmal mit denen der Competitor­s Amazon und Alibaba.

Von daher leide ich auch eine Verdoppelu­ngschance für Rakuten ab - vorausgese­tzt die Gewinnentw­icklung stimmt.

Viber ist eine von vielen Aktivitäten von Rakuten und kann meines Erachtens locker mit Snapchat mithalten,­ aber trotzdem hat die Mutter von Viber, Rakuten, nur eine etwas mehr als halb so hohe Bewertung wie Snapchat - sehr selsam.

"Snapchat at a $25 billion valuation would have a multiple of 25 times times or more its 2017 revenue revenue."

repurchase its own stock representing 8.4 percent Rakuten, which joined the Nikkei 225 Index last year, said Tuesday that it will repurchase­ its own stock from Feb. 22 through Feb. 21 of 2018, representi­ng 8.4 percent of total shares outstandin­g. Rakuten gave the reason for a buyback in a single sentence: “The market price of our shares, capital efficiency­ and financial conditions­ were all taken into considerat­ion.”
In fact, the transactio­n is essentiall­y a trade by billionair­e Chairman Hiroshi Mikitani to buy back shares at a bargain from when they were issued in June 2015, plus some. Back then, Rakuten sold almost 100 million shares for 1,905.5 yen apiece, raising about 181 billion yen.

Myanmar: Viber estimates 18 million active users Myanmar now has at least 33 million active mobile subscripti­ons in a country with an official population­ of 53 million. Smartphone­ usage rate is reported at 80%.
Viber estimates that it has 18 million active users in the country – meaning that almost 1 in 2 of all active cell phones in the country have Viber installed on them.

Divergenzen Yahoo Japan's merchandis­e lineup came to 230 million items as of the end of September,­ the largest of any Japanese e-commerce­ site. But transactio­n value only reached a total of around 100 billion yen ($881 million) in the July-Septe­mber quarter. Meanwhile,­ industry rival Rakuten recorded roughly 750 billion yen in transactio­n value, although a fair comparison­ cannot be made since the companies'­ calculatio­n methods differ.
