I"ve told you that over time look-through earnings must increase at about 15% annually if our intrinsic business value is to grow at that rate. Indeed, since present management took over in 1965, our look-through earnings have grown at almost the identical 23% rate of gain recorded for book value.
我曾经告诉各位,长期而言,如果我们的实质价值也期望以这个幅度来成长的话,透视盈余每年也必须增加15%,而的确过自从现有经营阶层于1965年接手后,公司的透视盈余几乎与帐面价值一样,以23%的年复合成长率增加。
Last year, however, our look-through earnings did not grow at all but rather declined by 14%. To an extent, the decline was precipitated by two forces that I discussed in last year"s report and that I warned you would have a negative effect on look-through earnings.
然而去年我们的透视盈余不但没有增加,反而减少了14%,这样的下滑主要导源于去年年报就曾经向各位提过的两项因素,那时我就曾经警告各位那对我们的透视盈余将会有负面的影响。
First, I told you that our media earnings - both direct and look-through - were "sure to decline" and they in fact did. The second force came into play on April 1, when the call of our Gillette preferred stock required us to convert it into common. The after-tax earnings in 1990 from our preferred had been about $45 million, an amount somewhat higher than the combination in 1991 of three months of dividends on our preferred plus nine months of look-through earnings on the common.
首先我告诉各位旗下媒体事业的盈余,不管是帐面直接或是间接透视一定会减少,而事实证明确是如此,第二个因素发生在4月1号我们吉列特别股被要求转为普通股,1990年来自特别股的税后盈余是4,500万美元,大概比1991年一季的股利总和加上三季的普通股透视盈余还多一点。
Two other outcomes that I did not foresee also hurt look-through earnings in 1991. First, we had a break-even result from our interest in Wells Fargo (dividends we received from the company were offset by negative retained earnings). Last year I said that such a result at Wells was "a low-level possibility - not a likelihood." Second, we recorded significantly lower - though still excellent - insurance profits.
另外有二项我没有意料到的结果,也影响到我们1991年的透视盈余,首先我们在Well-Fargo的利益大概仅维持损益两平(所收到的股利收入被其累积亏损所抵消),去年我说这样的可能性很低的说法,其可信度存疑,第二我们的保险业盈余虽然算是不错,但还是比往年低。
The following table shows you how we calculate look-through earnings, although I warn you that the figures are necessarily very rough. (The dividends paid to us by these investees have been included in the operating earnings itemized on page 6, mostly under "Insurance Group: Net Investment Income.")
各位可以从下表看出我们是如何计算透视盈余的,不过我还是要提醒各位这些数字有点粗糙,(被投资公司所分配的股利收入已经包含在保险事业的净投资收益项下)

2. For the nine months after Berkshire converted its preferred on April 1仅含Berkshire于4月1日申请转换为普通股后的九个月
3. Calculated on average ownership for the year以年平均持有股权比例计算
We also believe that investors can benefit by focusing on their own look-through earnings. To calculate these, they should determine the underlying earnings attributable to the shares they hold in their portfolio and total these. The goal of each investor should be to create a portfolio (in effect, a "company") that will deliver him or her the highest possible look-through earnings a decade or so from now.
我们也相信投资人可以透过研究自己的透视盈余而受益,在算这个东西时,他们就会了解到其个别投资组合所应分配到的真正盈余的合计数,所有投资人的目标,应该是要建立一项投资组合可以让其透视盈余在从现在开始的十年内极大化。
