Hello my friends, I need your help on one question:
Enterprise value as you know is, basically, equity + net debt. In calculating net debt, do I have to subtract short term investments from total debt? I know that I definitely have to subtract "cash and equivalents" but some companies, in addition to that, also have a separate "Short term investment" item on its balance sheet...and I am just not sure whether I have to subtract this ST investment item too, to get to net debt. What do you think?
Thanks a lot for your help in advance..

Yes, take it out. In some groups, your MD may make you also factor in long term investments depending on what they are.
