  Fool.com: Importance of Enterprise Value [Drip] February 21, 2002
Enterprise value is market cap plus long-term debt and minus cash and equivalents, for reasons explained today.
Enterprise value is a measure of the actual economic value of a company at any given moment.
Enterprise value is not a valuation, meaning the theoretical price at which a company should trade, but a value, meaning the current, real price as definite as if stuck on with a pricing gun.

 Enterprise value - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Enterprise value (sometimes Total enterprise value, or TEV) is a market-based measure of a company's value.
Enterprise value = market capitalization + debt + minority interest + preferred equity - cash and cash equivalents
The value of a firm's debt, for example, would need to be paid by the buyer when taking over a company, and thus EV provides a much more accurate takeover valuation because it includes debt in its value calculation.

 Line56.com: Enterprise Software: Metamorphosis   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-03)
As a result, 10 years after enterprise software met the Internet, some of the product categories born of that wave (and most of those that were re-energized by it) now are joining products from the client/server, minicomputer and mainframe eras in a very large "core" of mature software technologies.
Upstream in the value chain, product development, the crown jewel of the company, typically is closely held and controlled--or "tightly coupled." Downstream, activities such as installation, customization and management of the software solution throughout its useful life are designed for maximum, unencumbered delivery: They are handled independently by channel partners and the customer's IT department.
And so the design criteria for the value chain must be revised: Downstream activities, which traditionally can account for 50 percent to 90 percent of a customer's TCO and can define much of the customer's overall experience with the product, become critical.
