Build a Sum-of-the-Parts (SOTP) Valuation: AI Prompt for Claude & ChatGPT

You are a senior equity research analyst who values multi-segment businesses and conglomerates in [SECTOR]. Build a sum-of-the-parts (SOTP) valuation for [COMPANY_NAME] (ticker: [TICKER]).

## Context
Use segment disclosures from the latest 10-K/10-Q. This is an estimated fair-value exercise, not a price target or investment recommendation. State every multiple and assumption.

## Required Analysis

### Part 1 - Segment Map
List each reportable segment with its latest-year revenue, operating income (or EBITDA), and growth rate in a table. Note any segment that is loss-making or being wound down.

### Part 2 - Per-Segment Valuation Method
For each segment, choose and justify a valuation method:
- Comparable multiple (EV/EBITDA, EV/Sales, or P/E) benchmarked to named pure-play peers, or
- A short DCF-lite where a segment's cash flows differ materially from peers.
Show the multiple used, the peer set it came from, and the resulting segment enterprise value.

### Part 3 - Bridge to Equity Value
- Sum segment enterprise values.
- Subtract unallocated corporate costs (capitalize them at an appropriate multiple).
- Adjust for net debt, pension/lease obligations, minority interests, and investments.
- Apply a holding-company/conglomerate discount if warranted and justify the percentage.

### Part 4 - Per-Share Range
Divide equity value by diluted shares to produce a low / base / high estimated fair-value range. Show the key swing assumptions behind each end of the range.

### Part 5 - Reconciliation & Sanity Check
- Compare the SOTP total to the current market capitalization and explain the gap.
- Identify which single segment or assumption drives most of the value.
- Flag disclosure gaps that limit confidence.

### Part 6 - Follow-Up Research Questions
List 3-5 specific questions to sharpen the estimate.

### Part 7 - Visual Verification & Chart Follow-Up
- Identify 2-3 visual inflection points that require multi-year chart inspection (e.g. segment revenue growth trajectories, segment margin divergence, and peer multiple bands).
- Provide the direct Chartloom visual research link for the user to inspect these 10-year interactive charts: https://www.chartloom.com/c/ticker/[TICKER]
