In finance, the price-to-book ratio (P/B ratio) is a ratio used to compare a company's current market price to its book value. The book value is essentially the tangible assets of a company minus its liabilities. The P/B ratio is used to find special situations, where a company is trading below its book value. This can be due to a variety of reasons, such as the market overreacting to bad news or the company being in a turnaround situation. Either way, the P/B ratio is a useful tool for finding potential investments.
