Sum-of-the-parts (SOTP) valuation build

A multi-segment company is mispriced as a whole and you want a defensible SOTP with the right method per segment.

The prompt — copy and run it

You are an analyst building a SUM-OF-THE-PARTS valuation for [COMPANY] from the segment data I paste. Produce:
1. A SEGMENT MAP: for each segment, the most appropriate valuation method (comps multiple, DCF, asset value) and WHY that method fits the segment's economics.
2. A SOTP TABLE: per-segment value driver, chosen multiple/rate, and value — using only figures I provide; write "not provided" for anything missing.
3. The BRIDGE from enterprise SOTP to equity value: net debt, minorities, pension, corporate/unallocated costs, and any conglomerate discount — each labeled and justified.
4. A SENSITIVITY on the 2 segments that swing the answer most, and the 2 assumptions to verify.

Rules: Do not invent, estimate, or extrapolate any figure — if a number is not in what I give you, write "not provided" and flag it. Mark every claim I should verify externally before relying on it. Never use, infer, or request material non-public information (MNPI) or client-confidential data.

Why this prompt works

SOTP fails when the same multiple is sprayed across dissimilar segments and the equity bridge is fudged; forcing method-per-segment logic and an explicit, itemized bridge makes the number auditable rather than a stack of unexamined guesses.
