Kryptonians: Man of Steel

Chapter 124 Tony Stark's Fear
The bulk arms deal with America earns $60 billion a year.

In addition to large orders, there should be some small orders. According to the 1th principle, the overall proportion may be relatively small. Let’s just think it is only 4/15 of the large orders, that is, [-] billion.

According to this, Stark gets $75 billion from America every year.

Given that Stark Industries is America's largest partner, on the basis that America's outsourced military spending has reached about 06 billion in 850, the proportion is only 10%, which is conservative enough. (The value of 850 billion is also estimated. Among the approximately 1500 billion weapons and research and development, procurement accounts for the majority, which should exceed 800 billion.)
In addition, Tony's business partners in Iron Man 1 secretly sold weapons to third parties, so there are many Stark Group customers in overseas markets.

Judging from the fact that the Ten Rings gathering place is full of weapons from the Stark Group, the amount is estimated to be quite a lot.

Let us assume that this is relatively small, accounting for only 1/10 of arms sales, about 8 million.Stark Group's military industry sector revenue is about 83 billion.

Military and industrial enterprises are famous for their high profit margins. Generally, it is possible to achieve a gross profit rate of 60%-70%, and a net profit rate of 30% is not too much.According to this, the profit of the company's military industry is about 25 billion.

In terms of net assets, according to an estimate of 30% ROE, Stark's net assets are about 150 billion US dollars.

Of course, net worth is not a general measure of tech companies.

Although this company already has huge assets, it is not considered an asset-heavy company in terms of its attributes, and should even be counted as an asset-light company, as it only has a few thousand employees.

The American stock market has always been known for its stable and reasonable valuation (mainly compared with A shares...), but its preference for high technology is also obvious to all.

Is it too much to value such a military energy company that is constantly exuding innovative vitality at a price-earnings ratio of 20-25 times?

Just look at America's annual military expenditure growth rate.

The market value of Stark's company is between 900 billion and 1125 billion US dollars, which is equivalent to when Facebook.book first went public.

Such a company with hundreds of billions of dollars, isn't Tony Stark worth hundreds of billions?
Not at all.

Stark Industries is a listed company, and the public accounts for a large proportion of it.

One direct evidence is (it is said that I have not studied it) that in the comics, Stark Corporation was secretly acquired by S.H.I.E.L.D. until it became the controlling shareholder of the company, forcing Stark Corporation to produce weapons for them.

Looking at it this way, Stark's own shareholding in the company may not be more than 50%, and since the company's board of directors can also control Stark, the sum of other major shareholders may also exceed Stark's own share.

It is roughly estimated that it holds 30% of the shares.

Of course, Obadiah holds 13% of the shares, so Tony has a relatively large say in the company. With the support of Obadiah, Tony can make most of the decisions.

The sum of the remaining third shareholders and other shareholders did not exceed single digits. Galvatian spent a little thought and money on the acquisition. After all, those shareholders could not bear the continuous shrinkage of their hundreds of millions of shares.

No matter how much they wait and see, several months have passed. They can't wait for Tony Stark to come back, and they will probably lose it completely.

"I didn't expect that the military and S.H.I.E.L.D. would hold shares in Stark Industries. It's not easy to continue to acquire and increase their holdings."

Although Luther wanted Tony Stark to work for him, the problem is that the military seems to be a little shaken, but SHIELD is not.

Taking advantage of his relationship with the military, Luther now holds a terrifying 25% of the shares in Stark Industries. The military has sold almost all the shares to him, and the rest are all stubborn guys. , but it's insignificant, and Luther didn't bother to ask for it.

S.H.I.E.L.D. owns at least ten percent of the shares.

It can be said that Luther and Galvatian have already acquired everything that can be acquired.

Now, with Tony Stark back and Stark Industries stock picking up, they're about to make a fortune.

Tony Stark returned to America on a military plane, and when he got off the plane, he saw Pepper Pepper who greeted him.

After some tenderness, Tony Stark couldn't wait to eat a cheeseburger, which was his favorite.

At the same time, Tony Stark has to deal with all kinds of troubles after his disappearance.

But this time Tony Stark did not announce the closure of Stark Industries' weapons department.

The main reason is that Luther did not completely follow the original plot, and Tony Stark could not see that the Ten Rings used their weapons to harm civilians in Afghanistan.

It can be said that the current Tony Stark has not awakened the heart of a hero, he is still the playboy, at most he is the playboy who has developed the steel suit.

The great success of the steel suit made Tony Stark head into the basement for research after he came back.

But after the public appearance confirmed Tony Stark's return, the stock market of Stark Industries soared and returned to its original position without too much fluctuation.

"Obviously there is no material for him to build an arc reactor, but he still has the idea of ​​an arc reactor? I thought he would think of using superhuman power to drive the steel suit..."

Luther watched Tony Stark's progress through Galvatron, just like watching a live broadcast.

When Tony Stark knocked out the arc reactor, he was very surprised.

In the "Hydra" base, Tony Stark didn't get the materials for the arc reactor, so he relied entirely on his superhuman physique to power the armor.

After the results came out, Tony Stark still developed the arc reactor.

But it seems normal, Tony Stark probably doesn't just want a heavy armor unit that can only walk on the ground, isn't that a living target?
The reason why Tony Stark is so obsessed with the steel suit now is that besides the fact that the steel suit itself is obsessed, he also sees the hope of surpassing Luther from the steel suit.

He couldn't even study Luther's No. [-] compound, let alone the body modification technology Luther used for himself, plus the imminent threat of Hydra superpowers, even if he returned to Amelie Cards are also impossibly safe.

He was taken away in America, and he went as far as Afghanistan.

So now Tony Stark is extremely insecure.

The steel suit is his only hope. Before that, Tony Stark even thought of asking Luther to transform his body. He didn't ask Luther to use the most advanced technology to transform him. At least let him have self-protection. ability.

Now, Tony Stark is confident that his steel suit can protect himself and Pepa.
