Excess Returns	= (Stable Return on equity – Cost of equity) (Book Value of Equity per share) = (6.8% – 13.86%) * A$5.47)	A$-0.39
Terminal Value of Excess Returns	= Excess Returns / (Cost of Equity - Expected Growth Rate) = A$-0.39 / (13.86% - 2.31%)	A$-3.34
Value of Equity	= Book Value per share + Terminal Value of Excess Returns = A$5.47 + A$-3.34	A$2.12

ASX:ABA Discount to Share Price
	Calculation	Result
Value per share (AUD)	From above.	A$2.12
Current discount	Discount to share price of A$5.42 = -1 x (A$5.42 - A$2.12) / A$2.12	-155.3%
