New reputation metric: eMotionRep by Kantar

On the occasion of the 2022 Intangible Metrics Innovation Congress organized by Corporate Excellence - Center for Reputation Leadership, Kantar Insights has presented its reputation metric "eMotionRep by Kantar". This metric, generated after an exhaustive process of research, analysis and review, and validated by Corporate Excellence, has been designed to feed the decisions of organizations and add value, providing more actionable and operational insights that really help in the transformation of companies. towards a more sustainable and resilient management model.With a flexible approach, in which customization coexists with comparability, Kantar Insights has designed a universal measurement model that can be adapted to each reality of the corporation. The eMotionRep by Kantar model has been prepared by applying a rigorous scientific approach that incorporates Kantar's experience into the academic and professional background in corporate reputation, updating it with new ESG metrics based on the proposals of the reporting standards for non-financial indicators. international.It is based on 12 universal concepts related to different facets of corporate behavior and with a high diagnostic capacity, grouped into three areas: Client Excellence, which includes the variables that measure the ability to attract and retain customers. ESG Excellence, which evaluates the perception of the company in terms of social, environmental, work and ethical criteria. Vision Excellence, which assesses the ability to continue growing.These variables explain the emotional reputation superscript made up of 4 components that is strongly related to the creation of favorable behaviors towards the company, such as buying its products, investing or working for it, or giving it the benefit of the doubt in possible adverse situations.Carmen Dato, Director of Corporate Reputation and Sustainability at Kantar Insights, commented: "We know that today the value of a company is much more related to intangible assets and resources and, according to the Ocean Volume report and the US Bureau of Economic Analysis, intangibles currently represent 90% of the value of a company in the capital market. Additionally, Kantar BrandZ, the largest brand value study worldwide, shows how between 2008 and 2018 brands with a strong reputation increased their value by 57 points. That is why, proactively managing reputation requires having metrics that help discover what the expectations of interest groups are and evaluate corporate performance in relation to them to feed the strategy and establish improvement plans. that make it possible to close the identified gaps.”The Kantar Insights model has been validated by Corporate Excellence - Center for Reputation Leadership, a step that Kantar has considered important to guarantee the market the rigor, objectivity and reliability of the model. Ángel Alloza, CEO of this business platform specializing in reputation and management of intangibles, explained the following: "From Corporate Excellence we welcome a new reputation measurement tool developed by one of the world's leading companies in reputation research. markets. This development represents a clear step forward for all corporate reputation managers.”How was the eMotion Rep by Kantar model built? During the congress, Alberto Relaño, Director of Analytics at Kantar Insights Spain, explained the meticulous process that has been developed to arrive at this metric: "The objective of Kantar Insights has been to develop a model that analyzes and improves current solutions in three components basic: rational cognitive (information or perception of the company), emotional (feeling that it generates) and behavioral (which depends on the previous ones). For this, a review of the state of the art of reputation and an exploratory investigation were carried out to identify 275 reputation variables. Subsequently, an advanced analytics system has been applied to them and they have been reviewed by our Brand and Reputation experts until reaching the most significant, the 12 attributes that make up our Core model: 3 rational dimensions with 4 attributes and an emotional dimension with 4 attributes. This entire process assures us that we have a statistical robustness superior to those existing in the market.”The eMotionRep by Kantar model therefore incorporates a "backbone" common to any reputation study that enables comparability together with a strong diagnostic capacity thanks to being connected to the Kantar BrandZ study, the largest Brand Value benchmark to date. world level.Thanks to its predictive capacity, with the model it is possible to: Periodically evaluate the reputation of the company and compare it with the average of its sector to know its performance Understand the drivers of the company's reputation and prioritize them according to their importance Know the structural and long-term impact that reputation has on key business indicators such as sales. Design the best reputation strategy, establishing priorities based on the strengths and potential risks identified for the corporation. Simulate future scenarios in which we see how the growth or decrease in the perception of any of the rational attributes would affect our emotional reputation. Determine which are the most relevant initiatives that will allow me to grow in one or several of the rational dimensions of reputation and with which of them we have a greater impact on the perception of stakeholders.> For more information contact: carmen.dato@kantar.com

Global Intangible Value Exceeds US$50 Trillion for the First Time

Global intangible value has surpassed US$50 trillion for the first time in history, reaching US$57.3 trillion at the beginning of the current financial year, according to the latest Brand Finance Global Intangible Finance Tracker (GIFT™). This constitutes 52% of the overall enterprise value of all publicly traded companies worldwide, which now amounts to an equally record-breaking US$109.3 trillion, exceeding the US$100 trillion mark also for the first time. Worryingly, however, 76% of the world’s intangible value – US$43.7 trillion – remains unaccounted for on balance sheets. At US$35.0 trillion last year, undisclosed intangible value has grown by a whopping 25% year on year – five times faster than the value of disclosed intangible assets (up 5%) – and outpacing by far the overall global enterprise value growth (up 18%). The past year has also seen a decline in the granularity of intangible asset reporting as the gap between disclosed intangible assets – accounted for in detail on balance sheets – and goodwill has widened dramatically. Goodwill is a premium paid over the fair value of assets in the event of a company being purchased and is sometimes used as a shortcut to avoid performing a more granular valuation of intangibles. Companies now list a stunning US$2.3 trillion more goodwill than disclosed intangible assets, compared to US$1.8 trillion last year. David Haigh, CEO of Brand Finance, commented: “Insufficient reporting of intangible assets leads to a host of problems for analysts, investors, boards, and stakeholders. With little information on particular assets, analysts’ assessments are not as accurate, forcing investors to act with one eye closed. This, in turn, has negative effects on share price volatility, affecting the stability and sustainability of finance. Equally, the lack of granular information on the true value of assets leaves boards and shareholders prone to hostile takeovers or selling and licencing individual assets below competitive prices.” Teresa de Lemus, Managing Director of Brand Finance Spain, commented: “In Spain, intangibles account for 36% of total business value with slightly over 40% undisclosed ¡ (15% of the total). This is less than the global average and partly shows that the dominant sectors in Spain tend to be more dependent on tangible assets. Given the value of all publicly listed Spanish companies has not yet reached its pre-crisis peaks, it seems evident that better managing intangible assets –in particular tech and marketing IP – will help Spanish companies grow faster in the new digital economy.” Ángel Alloza, CEO of Corporate Excellence- Centre for Reputation Leadership, commented: “Year after year we see an increase in the presence of intangible resources as opposed to tangibles when we talk of an organization’s total value, as this study clearly indicates”. Also claims that “organizations have become aware of the importance of managing these resources due to the fact that, among other things, they need to be part of a society that is increasingly demanding and concerned about its future. Citizens and consumers expect businesses to hold an active part in the world they live in and to make a positive impact in it”. For the general manager of this think tank “an organization’s value will depend on its support of adequate management of their intangible resources”. Intangible assets (such as brands, relationships, know-how) make up a greater proportion of the total value of many businesses than tangible assets (such as plant, machinery, and real estate). However, current financial reporting rules allow intangible asset disclosure only during M&A activity, resulting in no knowledge of the worth and business importance of intangibles unless they are subject to an acquisition. David Haigh, CEO of Brand Finance, commented: “A commitment to undertake an annual revaluation of all company assets, including tangible assets, acquired intangibles, and intangibles generated internally, would be a boon for boards, accountants, investors, and analysts. Newly-gained transparency and clarity would enable boards to make more effective use of their assets, accountants to have a more detailed picture of asset values, and investors and analysts to more accurately price shares.” According to Brand Finance’s survey of financial analysts, conducted in 2016, the majority backs this demand for an annual revaluation of all intangible assets (73%), including the full disclosure not only of acquired intangibles (79%) but of all internally generated ones too (68%). The problem is best highlighted by the stark disparity between the list of the world’s top 100 most intangible companies and an equivalent list ranked by disclosed – as opposed to total – intangible value. Amazon (with intangibles worth US$827 billion), taking over as the most intangible company in the world, as well as last year’s leader Apple (US$648 billion) do not even make the list of top 100 companies by disclosed intangible value. Their intangible value remains undisclosed at 98% and 99% respectively. The Internet & Software sector, where Amazon is joined by other digital giants such as Alphabet and Alibaba, has a very high percentage of enterprise value attributable to intangibles overall (87%), placing it just behind the Cosmetics (90%) and Aerospace (90%) industries. It also has the second-highest absolute intangible value among all sectors of the economy, at US$6.8 trillion, behind only Banking’s US$8.5 trillion. Despite this exposure to intangible value, Internet & Software is among those sectors which account for a very low value of their intangibles, reporting just 9.1% in goodwill and disclosed assets.
