-TDC reported after-tax operating income of $80 million in the most recent financial year. Its book value of capital is $600 million and it expects to maintain a growth rate of 3% a year in perpetuity.

- PMG Inc reported after-tax operating income of $40 million in the most recent year. Its book value of capital is $400 million and it expects to maintain a growth rate of 3% a year in perpetuity.
