Apple, Google and Microsoft, respectively, rank as the top three most valuable brands like last year. &#8220;The world&#8217;s biggest tech companies have consolidated their power in recent years, driving huge profits and soaring market values. Apple (phones), Google (search), Microsoft (software), Facebook (social) and Amazon (retail) dominate their respective sectors thanks to winning products and services. But perhaps their most prized and valuable attribute: strong brand names,&#8221; Forbes wrote when announcing the list. The robust brand name is what helps these companies propel the demand for their products and gain pricing power. It does not come as a surprise that these 5 tech brands are in the top 5 Forbes&#8217; count and are worth $586 billion when combined, up 20% from last year.<\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><span style=\"color: #000000; font-family: open-sans; font-size: 12pt;\"><strong>METHODOLOGY<\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><span style=\"font-family: open-sans; color: #000000; font-size: 12pt;\">The evaluation for 2018 began with more than 200 global brands to arrive to the final list of Top 100. It required all brands to have more than the sole presence in U.S. only, thus knocking out some of the big brands like multinational telecom firm Vodafone and Chinese Tencent and the e-commerce giant Alibaba.<\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><span style=\"font-family: open-sans; color: #000000; font-size: 12pt;\">The very first step in valuation of the brands involved the determination of revenue and earnings before interest and taxes for each brand. The information was procured from company reports, Wall Street research and industry experts. After averaging out earnings before interest and taxes (EBIT) over the past three years, a charge of 8% was subtracted as part of the of the brand&#8217;s capital employed, on the assumption that  a generic brand would be able to earn at least 8% on this capital.<\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><span style=\"font-family: open-sans; color: #000000; font-size: 12pt;\">The second step was to apply the maximum 2017 corporate tax rate in the parent company&#8217;s home country to that net earnings figure based on tax tables from KPMG. Forbes then valued the brands on three years of earnings and allocated a percentage of those earnings based on the role brands play in each industry (e.g., high for luxury goods and beverages, low for airlines and oil companies).<\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><span style=\"font-family: open-sans; color: #000000; font-size: 12pt;\">The average price-to-earnings multiple was applied for over the past three years to these earnings to arrive at the final brand value of the company.<\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><span style=\"color: #000000; font-family: open-sans; font-size: 12pt;\"><strong>THE TOP 3<\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><span style=\"font-family: open-sans; color: #000000; font-size: 12pt;\"><strong><img fetchpriority=\"high\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignleft wp-image-8763 size-medium\" src=\"https:\/\/bbf.digital\/new\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/06\/mac-os-300x300.png\" alt=\"\" width=\"300\" height=\"300\" srcset=\"https:\/\/bbf.digital\/new\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/06\/mac-os-300x300.png 300w, https:\/\/bbf.digital\/new\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/06\/mac-os-150x150.png 150w, https:\/\/bbf.digital\/new\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/06\/mac-os-768x768.png 768w, https:\/\/bbf.digital\/new\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/06\/mac-os.png 1024w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 300px) 100vw, 300px\" \/>Apple:<\/strong>  More commonly known as the &#8220;Tech Titan&#8221;, Apple has clung to the title of the most valuable brand in the world, with a valuation of $182.8 billion, an 8% one-year value change. Apple has set the bar exceptionally high over the past decade and is worth 38% more than Google that currently ranks second.<\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><span style=\"font-family: open-sans; color: #000000; font-size: 12pt;\">Apple has topped the charts due to its highly dedicated fans, who made the iPhone X a huge success irrespective of being extremely overpriced. Apple sold over 29 million phones in even less than two months, which is only possible when you have such loyal customers. Even though rival company Samsung sold more phones during the fourth quarter of 2017, Apple still bagged up 87% of the smartphone industry profits of the year. One-fourth of these sales were in China, indicating the endless demand for Apple products around the globe.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-family: open-sans; font-size: 12pt; color: #000000;\"><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignright wp-image-8764 \" src=\"https:\/\/bbf.digital\/new\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/06\/google-logo-icon-PNG-Transparent-Background-300x101.png\" alt=\"\" width=\"410\" height=\"138\" srcset=\"https:\/\/bbf.digital\/new\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/06\/google-logo-icon-PNG-Transparent-Background-300x101.png 300w, https:\/\/bbf.digital\/new\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/06\/google-logo-icon-PNG-Transparent-Background-768x260.png 768w, https:\/\/bbf.digital\/new\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/06\/google-logo-icon-PNG-Transparent-Background.png 1024w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 410px) 100vw, 410px\" \/><\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><span style=\"font-family: open-sans; font-size: 12pt; color: #000000;\"><strong>Google:<\/strong> Alphabet Inc. better known by its former name, Google Inc. (GOOGL) is a technology conglomerate that oversees a number of businesses, including the largest internet search and advertising service in the world, the popular streaming video website YouTube, the Android mobile operating system, cloud storage services, and various other growth ventures. Google has ranked second for the third straight year, with a valuation of $132.1 billion, which has increased by around 30%. It has been the leader in terms of cloud technology and internet search, in spite of the many efforts by Yahoo, Baidu and Bing. It is this very search business that is behind the 26% rise in operating margins. Google is one of the most successful stocks of the 21st century, launching at just over $50 a share in August 2004 before reaching a predicted 2019 value of just over $1,125 per class A share. Despite its non-dividend paying status, investors of all types from all over the world have flocked to Google and helped transform it into a multi billion dollar company. For example, in Germany, German investors can invest in an <a href=\"https:\/\/kryptoszene.de\/aktien-kaufen\/google-aktie\/\">Alphabet Google Aktie<\/a> (Alphabet Google Share) to boost their portfolio. With some exciting plans in the pipeline for the next year, it is safe to assume that Google will continue to grow at a fast rate.<\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><span style=\"font-family: open-sans; color: #000000; font-size: 12pt;\"><strong><a style=\"color: #000000;\" href=\"https:\/\/bbf.digital\/new\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/06\/microsoft_PNG16.png\"><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"wp-image-8767  alignleft\" src=\"https:\/\/bbf.digital\/new\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/06\/microsoft_PNG16-300x64.png\" alt=\"\" width=\"545\" height=\"117\" srcset=\"https:\/\/bbf.digital\/new\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/06\/microsoft_PNG16-300x64.png 300w, https:\/\/bbf.digital\/new\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/06\/microsoft_PNG16-768x164.png 768w, https:\/\/bbf.digital\/new\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/06\/microsoft_PNG16.png 1024w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 545px) 100vw, 545px\" \/><\/a>Microsoft:<\/strong> Microsoft ranked third in this year&#8217;s list with a valuation of $104.9 billion, an astonishing rise of 21% from last year.

Amazon overtook Coca-Cola and ranked 5th with a brand valuation of $70.9 billion. This was the only change in the top five list this year. The changing drinking habits worldwide have changed significantly, with consumers opting for healthier beverages and this seems to be impacting Coca-Cola.
