Enterprise Value
Term category: Finance/Accounting
In 10 words or less:  Enterprise value is commonly referred to as a "takeover price"

Definition: Enterprise value is the value of a company's stock (its market cap) plus debt, minority interests, and preferred stock minus cash.

Advice: The enterprise value is often seen as the takeover price for a company because this is what a company would have to pay.  The acquirer would take on the company's debt but keep the cash for itself (or to pay down the debt).
