Book Value Per Share estimates how much balance sheet equity is attributable to each outstanding share. This page keeps the logic simple and transparent, then adds helpful outputs like equity ratio, charts, scenario comparison, and a printable PDF layout.
Type the company total assets from its balance sheet for a chosen reporting period.
Type total liabilities for the same period, then the tool derives equity as assets minus liabilities.
Use the number of common shares outstanding. Treasury shares are typically excluded from outstanding shares.

Book Value Per Share (BPS), also referred to as BVPS, estimates the balance sheet equity attributable to each outstanding share. It uses accounting values from financial statements, so it is best used as one part of a broader valuation review.
This calculator uses the standard identity:
If you already have shareholders equity reported directly, you can use that value as total equity. This tool keeps the arithmetic explicit by deriving equity from assets and liabilities.
BPS is often compared with the market price per share and with historical values.
BPS is useful, but it has common limitations.

BPS (Book Value Per Share, BVPS) estimates how much balance sheet equity is attributable to each outstanding share.
Not always. BPS depends on accounting values and business structure. Use it together with profitability, cash flow, and industry context.
You can. This tool derives equity as total assets minus total liabilities, then divides by outstanding shares, so you can see each component clearly.
Yes. Reducing outstanding shares can increase BPS if total equity stays the same, because the per share denominator becomes smaller.
These results are for general reference only and may differ from audited reporting or accounting adjustments.
