    Hi all,
    Im currently preparing my RAP,and had a query. After choosing the company i wanted to research about(say co. x) as well as the company that i was going to compare it with(say co. y), i found that my comparator company(co. y) owns shares(about 26%) of co. x..Will that affect my analysis in anyway?
    I have already calculated all my ratios and have finished part 1 and part2 of my RAP,so this issue has been confusing me.
    Thanks to anyone who can help me.

    Dear friend,

    your ratios will be distorted using this arrangement ( this is a typical case of Parent & Associate company), please stay away from it. i advice you use different company though in the same industry as a comparator.

    I did topic 8 it’s clear cut arranegment between 2 companies in the same industries.

    do well to contact me should you required further advice (g_ayo@yahoo.com)

    i wsih you sucess!
