Investopedia Says:
A company's tangible book value looks at what common shareholders can expect to receive if the firm goes bankrupt and all of its assets are liquidated at their book values.

Companies with high tangible book value per share provide shareholders with more insurance in case of bankruptcy. Related Terms:
