To the circumstances of the current capital market regulations, startup with the balance of a

loss is still difficult to enter the capital market. Financial ratios will be the benchmark of
achievement. Strategies are dominating and making high fence resist other competitors
entered with countless marketing dollars will be difficult to implement. Target reached profit
would split the long-term focus, management will have to compromise to find a base clappers
from elsewhere that financial ratios look better. Traveloka almost certainly will not be able to

the technology and services of the product and that's when it is really visible whether it gets a
response market well or not. This initial phase is usually assisted by certain types of investors

enter the capital market. Capital market regulations are arguably quite appropriate to
accommodate later stage companies compared to previous stages of the startup cycle, and

value, P / E ratio and other ratios commonly used by the capital market.

estimate of valuation and are willing to release 20 percent to the public at around 1.05 trillion,
then assuming the number of shares outstanding reaches 1 billions of shares, then it can be
formulated as follows
P = 1,050,000,000,000 / 1,000,000,000
P = 1,050,
The Traveloka company can bid at the price of 1,050 / share.
