Facebook estimates itself at 95.9 billion dollars
It's about the capitalization announced by Facebook yesterday. The company hired several financial organizations that helped capitalize all social network assets. As a result, Facebook’s total capitalization was $ 95.9 billion. The assessment is necessary for the company to enter the IPO, which is planned for a long time, but all the time is postponed.
According to management, Facebook plans to give away its shares at a price of 28-35 dollars apiece. The total number of shares to be sold is 337.4 million. According to experts, such a move will attract more funds than previously planned - we are talking about about 9-11 billion dollars, instead of 5 billion. Many financial institutions and individual experts believe that the company's capitalization is too high, because in a recent report, Facebook announced an annual revenue of $ 4 billion.
Thus, Facebook estimates itself at 24 annual income, which is a lot. None of the companies have yet rated themselves so highly. Even the corporation Google in its time received an estimate based on a five-year income. To say that Facebook is more profitable or more reliable than Google is premature. Experts say that the income of the social network is several times less than that of Google, while the declared capitalization of Facebook is only two times lower than that of Google.

Most independent experts believe that this is a “bubble”. However, after entering the IPO on social network shares, many investors hope to make money. These include Microsoft, Goldman Sachs, Zynga, Mail.ru Group Ltd., DST and others.
