Mead Johnson Nutritionals Spinoff IPO

Hi Jae,

As i’ve discussed with you, I think MJN is in a great line of business. The fact that it is a spin-off makes it all the more intriguing because of how spin-offs typically outperform in the first couple of years. However, more than a spin-off, I view MJN as a long-term holding.

Now if only I could get in at the IPO price . I’ll have to see how it trades tomorrow and try to get in at a reasonable price.

Trying to figure out how to put a value on MJN. There doesn’t seem to be a public competitor except ABT, but pediatric nutrition is only one division making it hard to calculate and organise numbers.

Their history is too short to come up with a reliable forward looking estimate.

So the multiple method, DCF and Graham methods are all out. What other way is there?

Anyone know?

My wife and I are Christians and our focus is to love God and love people. We are proud supporters of Compassion and are grateful to be sponsoring 5 children. We are just two ordinary people and understand that we cannot change the world. However, we can help change the lives of a handful of children with the hope that they too can live a privileged life just like us. Call me crazy, but our dream is to one day sponsor 1,000 children around the world. Thanks to people like yourself, your involvement at Old School Value is helping us strive towards achieving this dream.
