The PwC Shareholder Value Index determines a company's performance by taking into account both increases and decreases in a share price, dividends, share buy-backs and new share issues. The result is one benchmark that provides a measurement of shareholder value for stock market-listed automotive companies.
"We are honored to recognize these automotive companies for their performance to increase shareholder value," said Rick Hanna, global automotive leader, PwC. "This year's results are particularly exciting for the industry given the challenges of the past two years because they reflect the hard work of management in responding to the economic downturn. Clearly increasing shareholder value remains a key objective for automotive executive management throughout the industry. "
Shareholder Value Indices have been reported in Automotive News on a quarterly basis since January 2000. The 2010 complete year-end results and Automotive Shareholder Award winners will be announced in the January 17, 2011, issue of Automotive News at www.autonews.com and can also be found at www.pwc.com/auto from that date.
