• Industry wide value multiples have contracted over the last several years
• Within peer groups, companies that trade at the highest multiples have:
o Strong balance sheets
o Low capital intensity growth
o Political risk diversification
o Capable operators
• The NAV of an asset when it is producing is higher because capex is sunk and positive cash flows
are sooner (less discounting) higher multiples then compound share price growth
