2.Equityriskpremium

¾ Forward-looking (Ex ante) estimate – conceptual framework


z ERP is based on expectations for economic and financial variables from
the present going forward. It is logical to estimate ERP directly based on
current information and expectation.
z It is not subject to the issues such as non-stationary or data series in
historical estimate. But it is subject to potential errors related to models
and behavioral bias.
z 3 approaches
9 Gordon growth model (GGM) estimate;
9 Macroeconomics model estimate; and
9 Survey estimate.

26-248

2. Equity risk premium


¾ GGM
z GGM equity risk premium estimate = Dividend yield on the index based on
year-ahead aggregate forecasted dividends and aggregate market value +
Consensus long-term earnings growth rate – Current long-term government
bond yield
z A simple way to understand the equation:
D1
ERP r  RFR  g  RFR
P0
z The above equation assumes growth rate is constant.
z An analyst may make adjustment to reflect P/E boom or bust.
z Another method to solve these problems:

Equity Index Price PVrapid (r)+PVtransition (r)+PVmature (r)

3. Required return on equity

¾ In estimating the required return on equity, the analyst can choose


following models:
z CAPM;
z Multifactor models;
9 Fama-French Model (FFM);
9 Pastor-Stambaugh model (PSM);
9 Macroeconomic Multifactor models;
z Build-up method
9 Bond Yield Plus Risk Premium Method

31-248

3. Required return on equity

CAPM model
Required return on share i = Current expected risk-free return
+ i (Equity risk premium)
¾ It’s an equilibrium model based on key assumptions:
z Investors are risk aversion;
z Investors make investment decision base on the mean return and
variance of return of their portfolio.

32-248

3. Required return on equity

CAPM model—Beta Estimates for Public Companies


¾ Estimating Beta for public company
z The choice of index: the S&P 500 and the NYSE composite.
z The length and frequency of sample data:
9most common choice is 5 years of monthly data;
9Two years of weekly data for fast grow market.
¾ Adjusted Beta for Public Companies
z Adjusted beta = (2/3) (Unadjusted beta) + (1/3) (1.0)
z Beta drift refers to the observed tendency of an estimated beta to
revert to a value of 1.0 over time.

33-248
3. Required return on equity

Estimating Beta for tiny traded stock or nonpublic companies:


zStep 1: Selecting benchmark company(comparable)
9 Use the public companies’ information in the same industry;
zStep 2: Estimate the benchmark’s beta (similar with previous section);
zStep 3: Unlevered benchmark’sª beta: º

Multifactor model
¾ The beta in CAPM does not describe the risk completely. Multifactor
models are develop to account for the risks more completely.

Required Return=RF  RP1  RP2    RPn


RPi factor sensitivityi u factor risk premiumi

z Factor sensitivity is also called the factor beta, it is the asset’s


sensitivity to a particular factor, and zero sensitivity to all other
factors.

Example: Fama-French Model
The estimated factor sensitivities of TerraNova Energy to Fama—French factors
and the risk premium associated with those factors are given in the table below:
Factor Sensitivity Risk Premium(%)
Market Factor 1.20 4.5
Size Factor -0.50 2.7
Value Factor -0.15 4.3

A. Based on the Fama-french model, calculate the required return for TerraNova
Energy using theses estimates. Assume that the Treasure bill rate is 4.7
percent.
B. Describe the expected style characteristics of TerraNova based on its factor
sensitivities.
Answer:
A. r = 4.7%+(1.20x4.5%)+(-0.50x2.7%)+(-0.15x4.3%) = 4.7% + 5.4% - 1.35% -
0.645% = 8.1%
B. TerraNova Energy appears to be a large-cap, growth-oriented, high market risk
stock as indicated by its negative size beta, negative value beta, and market
beta above 1.0.
37-248

3. Required return on equity


Macroeconomic Multi-factor models
z Macroeconomic Multifactor models use factors associated with economic
variables. Burmerster, Roll, and Ross model incorporates the following five
factors:
9 Confidence risk: unexpected change in the difference between return of
risky corporate bonds and government bonds.
9 Time horizon risk: unexpected change in the difference between the return
of long-term government bonds and treasury bills.
9 Inflation risk: unexpected change in the inflation rate.
9 Business-cycle risk: unexpected change in the level of real business
activity.
9 Market timing risk: the equity market return that is not explained by the
other four factors.

38-248

3. Required return on equity


Build-up method
z The basic idea for the required return on equity is
ri = Risk-free rate + Equity risk premium s One or more premium (discounts)
z For private business valuation
ri = Risk-free rate + Equity risk premium + Size premium

+ Specific-company premium
z Bond Yield Plus Risk Premium Method
BYPRP cost of equity = YTM on the company’s long-term debt + Risk premium
z Tips: Paying careful attention to whether there is a positive or negative sign
attached to the component----and work through it logically.

4. International Consideration

International Consideration
¾ Exchange rate risk
z The volatility of exchange rate influences the return on foreign investment in
term of home currency;
Equity risk premium = Equity risk premium for a developed market
+ Country premium
z Country Spread Model: use a corresponding developed market as a
benchmark and add a premium for the emerging market.
9 One premium is the difference between the yield on bonds
z Country Risk Rating Model: risk ratings (published by Institutional Investor) for
those countries as the independent variable.
¾Data and model issues in emerging markets

43-248

5. WACC
¾ The cost of capital is most commonly estimated using the company’s
after-tax weighted average cost of capital, or weighted average cost of
capital (WACC) for short.
z A weighted average of required rates of return for the component
sources of capital
MVD MVCE
WACC rd 1  Tax rate  rce
MVD  MVCE MVD  MVCE
¾ The changes in capital structure results in changes in WACC. Eliminate
the impact from frequent changes of capital structure in estimating
WACC, the target capital structure is used to estimate the WACC.

44-248

6. Discount rate selection in relation to cash flow

¾ Being used as discount rates in valuation, required returns need to be


defined appropriately relative to the cash flows to be discounted.
z Cash flow to equity Æ the required return on equity
z Cash flow to the firm Æ the firm’s cost of capital (after-tax weighted
average cost of capital )
¾ When cash flows are stated in real terms, amounts reflect offsets made
for actual or anticipated changes in the purchasing power of money
z Nominal cash flows Æ Nominal discount rates
z Real cash flows Æ Real discount rates

Factors Affect an Industry on Temporary Basis

¾ Various factors may affect an industry on a temporary basis but not


determine industry profitability and structure in the long term:
z Industry Growth Rate, a common mistake is to assume that fast-
growing industries are always attractive.
z Technology and Innovation, improved technology does not improve
profits if it attracts competitors.
z Government, these can be good or bad and are prone to change
through time.
z Complementary Products, these are products that are used in
conjunction with the firm’s products (like hot dogs and buns), and
these can have a positive or negative effect. Some complements can
create or increase barriers to entry and reduce the treat of substitutes.

57-248
Changes in Industry Structure on Long-Term

¾ Five forces drive an industry’s structural attractiveness and long-term


profitability.
z Changes in Threat of New Entrants
z Changes in Power of Suppliers and Buyers
z Changes in Threat from Substitutes
z Changes in Rivalry
z Strategic Alternatives
9 Alert for fundamental changes that can affect the strength or
weakness of the five forces.

Example: Analyzing the Competitive Forces for WAL-Mart

¾ Synopsis
Wal-Mart is the world's largest retailer, selling a wide range of products targeted to
consumers and small businesses. The firm serves approximately 150 million customers per
week in the Americas, Asia, and the United Kingdom.
Wal-Mart is widely viewed as having the lowest prices on a broad variety of frequently-
purchased consumer products.
Principal competitors include other broad-based discount stores, grocery stores, as well
as small retailers operating in its geographic region. The smaller specialty retailers and
single-location boutiques compete with Wal-Mart in limited product lines.
Wal-Mart has a reputation as a formidable competitor, and many retailers have been
forced to change their business models in order to stay profitable once Wal-Mart enters
their markets.
A major development in recent years at Wal-Mart has been the deterioration in its market
image because of accusations of unfair labor practices. The firm is currently defending
several lawsuits involving its employment practices, and these have generated significant
and damaging press coverage.

Example: Analyzing the Competitive Forces for WAL-Mart


¾ Competitive Forces and Wal-Mart
z Threat of new entrants.
z Threat of substitutes.
z Bargaining power of buyers.
z Bargaining power of suppliers.
z Rivalry among existing competitors.
¾ Conclusion
Wal-Mart drives its competitive strategy through its enormous scale, which
provides significant barriers to entry, low supplier bargaining power, and low
buyer bargaining power. Substitutes are available for all products Wal-Mart sells
but usually at higher prices. Wal-Mart's scale has historically enabled it to enjoy
high profits for its industry.
A principal threat to Wal-Mart's long-term profitability is the increase in
supplier power in the form of the influence of its suppliers of labor on the court
system, the press, and public opinion. Wal-Mart should take action to reduce the
impact of these labor difficulties on the firm. In fact, it has made steps to improve
its public relations through actions such as increased and more visible charitable
giving.

forecast factors, such as
z Industry demand
z Corporate performance
z Market expectations
¾ Malleability: extent to which a company and its competitors can
influence these industry factors.

Strategy formulation styles


¾ There are four possible strategy formulation styles based on
predictability and malleability

Less Predictable More Predictable

Less Malleable Adaptive Classical

More Malleable Shaping Visionary

68-248

Strategy formulation styles

¾ Classical: appropriate when a company faces an environment that


is highly predictable and that cannot be easily changed.
z Example: Oil company strategist
z Entails identification of a company’s unique abilities and resources
z Formulation of a plan to achieve the most favorable market position
z Multiple rounds of methodical planning and quantitative prediction
tools are used to generate long-term forecasts.
z One of the goal is to optimize efficiency.
z Analysis of an industry based on Porter’s five forces is an example of
the classical style.

69-248
Strategy formulation styles
¾ Adaptive: appropriate when a company faces an environment that is
highly unpredictable and not easily changed
z Example: Specialty fashion retailing
z Require company to react quickly to change by ensuring the company
has:
9 Willingness to constantly refine long-term goals in response to a
changing environment
9 The ability to quickly redistribute or acquire resources to meet
changing conditions
9 A goal of maximizing flexibility rather than efficiency
9 A short-term or continuous planning processes based on a
hypothesis rather than a rigid plan
9 Strategies that are closely linked to operational processes, to capture
signals for change and minimize information loss.

70-248

Strategy formulation styles


¾ Shaping: appropriate when the underlying business environment is
less predictable but more malleable
z Example: software industry
z Entails a short or continuous planning cycle with a high degree of
flexibility
z Seek to influence the unpredictable business environment to further
their business interests by:
9 Building a network of committed customers, suppliers, and
partners
9 Defining new markets, technologies, and business practices
9 Promoting its interests through marketing, lobbying, and strategic
partnerships.

71-248

Strategy formulation styles

¾ Visionary: appropriate when the business environment is both more


predictable and more malleable
z Example: Satellite radio firms
z Seeks to alter the environment to further the company’s interest.
z Entail high risk and can be disruptive, involving a so-called ‘build it
and they will come’ approach
z Business should:
9 Have adequate resources to commit
9 Stay focused on a long-term goal rather than constantly changing
strategy

72-248
Strategy formulation styles

¾ Survival Style: a company faces severe restrictions on its access to


capital or other important resources
z The company should defensively focus on shoring up capital, cutting
expenses, restructuring, etc., in order to be ready when the business
environment improves and a longer-term strategy can be formulated.

73-248

Pitfalls in Strategy formulation


¾ Focusing only on a predicable environment
z Most companies explicitly or implicitly assume that their business
environment is fairly predictable and use only classical or visionary
styles as a result.
¾ Inaccuracy in gauging the dimensions
z Executives often overestimate the predictability of the business
environment and their ability to affect it
¾ Relying on predefined timetables
z Use structured(e.g., annual) planning cycles even though the
business environment may change more rapidly.
z Does not take into account the dynamism of the business
environment

74-248

Pitfalls in Strategy formulation


¾ Having a cultural mismatch
z Difficult to implement an adaptive style when the corporate culture
does not support it
¾ Relying on a single style for diverse divisions of a company
z A single style would be poor fit for the company that operates in many
different industries or geographical regions.
¾ A style that does not evolve with changes in industry life cycle
z Strategy formulation style may need to change as an industry evolves
over its life cycle.

76-248

Approaches for equity valuation models


¾ Bottom-up analysis starts with analysis of an individual company or its
reportable segments.
z E.g. revenue projections based on historical revenue growth
¾ Top-down analysis begins with expectations about a macroeconomic
variable (expected growth rate of nominal GDP).
z E.g. revenue projections that are derived from an estimate of GDP
growth and an expected relationship between GDP growth and
company sales
¾ Hybrid analysis incorporates elements of both top-down and bottom-up
analysis.
z Hybrid analysis is the most common type
z Highlight any inconsistencies in assumptions between the top-down
and bottom-up approaches.

77-248

Revenue forecast approaches

¾ Growth relative to GDP growth


z “GDP growth plus x%” or “to increase at the growth rate of GDP times 1+x%”.
gGDP+x% or gGDP *(1+x%)

¾ Market growth and market share


z Begins with an estimate of industry sales (market growth)
z Company revenue is estimated as a percentage of industry sales
z Market share times estimated industry sales provide the estimate of
company revenues.

Note that different business or geographic segments may have significantly different
relationship between GDP growth and revenue growth

78-248
Economies of scale
¾ Characteristics of economies of scale
z Higher operating margins (lower average cost) as production volume
increases
z Sales volume and margins will tend to be positively correlated
¾ Economies of scale may appear
z When larger companies(i.e. companies with higher sales) in an
industry have larger margins
z Ones way to evaluate is to look at common-size income statements
9 Evidence of economies of scale in COGS: lower COGS as a
proportion of sales for larger companies
9 Evidence of economies of scale in SG&A: Lower SG&A as a
proportion of sales for larger companies

79-248

Forecast COGS
¾ Forecast of gross margin should consider the probability that increasing or
decreasing trend of a company’s gross margin might continue
¾ Examine competitors gross margin to check the reasonableness of future gross
margin
z Differences between firms’ business models may be the underlying reasons
for differences in gross margin
z Investigate any remaining differences
¾ Closer examination of the volume and price of a firm’s inputs may improve the
quality of a forecast of COGS, especially in the short run.
z Fuel cost can be volatile and will have a significant impact on an airline’s
COGS, gross margin and net margins
z Firms using forward contract or other derivative securities to hedge their
future input costs
9 A hedge protects the firm’s gross margins from declining when input
prices rise
9 Protect the firm’s gross margins from increasing when input prices fall
¾ Estimate of a firm’s COGS may also be improved by forecasting COGS for the
firm’s various product categories and business segments separately
forecast COGS = (historical COGS/ revenue) u (estimate of future revenue)
forecast COGS = (1  gross margin) u estimate of future revenue)

80-248

Forecast Selling General and Administrative Costs(SG&A)

¾ SG&A operating expenses are less sensitive to changes in sales volume


than COGS
z Fixed component: greater than variable cost component
9 R&D expenditures
‹ set by management over a near-term horizon
‹ uncorrelated with revenue.
9 Expenses for corporate headquarters expenses, management
salaries, IT operations.
‹ Grow gradually as the firm grows rather than being driven by
changes in firm sales in the current period
z Variable component: directly related to sales volumes
9 selling and distribution costs
¾ If segment information for SG&A is provided as a percentage of revenue,
SG&A for each segment can be forecasted to produce better estimates of
segment operating margins going forward

81-248
Forecast Financing cost

¾ Financial structure includes both debt and equity financing


z Net debt: gross debt minus cash, cash equivalents, and short-term
securities
z Gross interest expense: level of (gross) debt and market interest rates.
z Net interest expense: gross interest expense minus interest income on
cash and short-term debt securities.
¾ Analyst should also use any planned debt issuance or retirement and the
maturity structure of existing debt (disclosed in footnotes to financial
statements) to improve the forecasts of future financing cost.

82-248

Example: Calculating gross and net interest rates


¾ Atwood Inc. provided the following information:
$(000s) 20x1 20x2 Average*
*URVVGHEW 3,200 3,600 3,400
&DVK67 VHFXULWLHV 800 700 750
1HWGHEW 2,400 2,900 2,650
*URVVLQWHUHVWH[SHQVHIRU 220
[
,QWHUHVWLQFRPHIRU[ 8
1HWLQWHUHVWH[SHQVH[ 212
*average values=(beginning value + ending value)/2

¾ Calculate Atwood’s 20x2 interest expense on average gross and average net
debt and the yield on average cash balances.

83-248

Example: Calculating gross and net interest rates

¾ Answer
z Gross interest expense rate is 220/3,400 = 6.47%
z Net interest expense rate is 212/2,650 = 8.00%
z Yield on average cash balance is 8/750 = 1.07%

84-248
Forecast Income tax expense

¾ There are three primary tax used in analysis


z Statutory rate: the percentage tax charged in the country where the firm is
domiciled
z Effective tax rate: income tax expense as a percentage of pretax income on
the income statement
z Cash tax rate: cash taxes paid as a percentage of pretax income

¾Changes in deferred tax items account for the difference between income tax
expense and cash taxes due.
z Income tax expense= cash tax due + changes in deferred tax liabilities —
changes in deferred tax assets

85-248

Comparisons among income tax expense


¾ Statutory and effective tax rates
z Differ because there are expenses recognized in the income statement
that are not deductible for tax purposes (a permanent difference)
z A reconciliation of theses two rates is contained in the footnotes to
financial statements
9 Provide information about one-time events as well as tax rates for the
various tax jurisdictions the firm operates in.
z The effective tax rate for a corporation that has taxable income in several
countries will be a weighted average of the effective tax rates in each
country
9 Effective tax rate will increase if a company has relatively
higher(lower) earnings growth in a high tax country
¾ Analyst should pay special attention to estimates of tax rates for companies
that consistently report an effective tax rate that is less than the statutory rate
(or consistently less than that of comparable peer companies)

86-248

Forecasting balance sheet items


¾ Many balance sheet items flow from the forecasted income statement items
z net income less dividend declared flow through to retained earing
¾ Working capital items: forecast based on their historical relationship with income
statement items
z Inventory= forecasted annual COGS/ Inventory turnover ratio
z Projected accounts receivable=(days sales outstanding)h(forecasted
sales/365)
z Estimate derived in this way preserve working capital items’ relationship with
income statement items
z Absent any complicating factors, working capital items will increase at the same
rate as revenue
¾ PP&E: determined by depreciation and capital expenditure(capex)
z Assume PP&E will equal to its historical average proportion of sales(PP&E
grows at the same rate as revenue)
9 Analyst can make more accurate projections of a company’s future capital
needs by incorporating the information of company’s operations and future
plans into the model.
z Forecasts may be improved by analyzing capital expenditures for
maintenance separately from capital expenditures for growth
9 Historical depreciation should be increased by inflation rate when
estimating capital expenditure for maintenance.(replacement cost can be
expected to increase with inflation)

87-248
Forecasting balance sheet items

¾ Sensitivity analysis
z Once the forecasted financial statement are constructed, an analyst should
perform sensitivity analysis for individual assumptions, or perform analyses
with alternative assumptions(scenario analysis), to examine the sensitivity of
net income to changes in assumptions.

88-248

Return on invested capital (ROIC)

¾ The return on invested capital (ROIC) can be calculated once financial


projections are completed.
¾ Invested capital: operating assets minus operating liabilities
¾ ROIC=Net operating profit adjusted for taxes(NOPLAT)/ invested capital
z ROIC is a return to both equity and debt and is preferable to ROE because it
allows comparisons across firms with different capital structures.
z Firms with higher ROIC (relative to their peers) are likely exploiting some
competitive advantage in the production and /or sale of their products.
¾ Return on capital employed: similar to ROIC but uses pretax operating
earnings in the numerator to facilitate comparison between companies that face
different tax rate.

89-248

Competitive position based on a Porter’s five forces

¾ Companies have less (more)pricing power when the threat of substitute


products is high(low) and switching costs are low (high)
¾ Companies have less(more) pricing power when the intensity of industry
rivalry is high (low).
z Pricing power is low when industry concentration is less, fixed costs and
exit barriers are high, industry growth is slow or negative, and when products
are not differentiated to a significant degree.
¾ Company prospects for earnings growth are lower when the bargaining power
of suppliers is high.
z Few suppliers are able to extract a larger portion of any value added.
z Companies have less pricing power when the bargaining power of customers
are high
z Companies have more pricing power and better prospects for earnings
growth when the threat of new entrants is low.

90-248
Forecast sales and costs subject to price inflation and deflation

¾ Analyst should understand company’s hedging and vertical integration


z Hedge their exposure to changes in input prices through derivatives
z Make fixed-price contract for future delivery
z Switch to a substitute input. E.g. rising oil prices may lead power
generation firms to switch from oil to natural gas.
¾ For a company that neither hedges input price exposure nor is vertically
integrated, analyst should determine.
z how rapidly, and to what extent, the increase in costs can be passed on
to customers
z expected effect of price increases on sales volume and sales revenue

91-248

Forecast sales and costs subject to price inflation and deflation

¾ Analyst should monitor input prices change


z Focus on significant factors affecting input prices
9 weather, the characteristics of input markets
9 Governmental regulation and taxation, tariffs
¾ Analyst should estimate the effects of an increase in input prices
z Make assumptions on the company’s pricing strategy
9 To preserve operating margins,company may cut other costs if the
increase on input prices is temporary, which is not appropriate for
long-term increases
z The effects of price increases on unit sales
9 Depend on the product’s elasticity of demand

92-248

Forecast sales and costs subject to price inflation and deflation

¾ Product’s elasticity of demand


z With elastic demand, the percentage reduction in unit sales is greater than
the percentage increase in price, a price increase will decrease total sales
revenue
z Price increase with cost per unit and unit sales do not decrease(this is
unlikely), the operating profit is unchanged but gross margins, operating
margins and net margins will fall.
z Firms that are too quick to increase prices will experience declining sales
volumes
z Firms that are slow to increase price will experience declining gross margins

93-248
Example: effect of price inflation
¾ Alfredo, Inc., sells a specialized network component. The firm’s income statement for
the past year is given below
Alfredo, Inc., Income Statement for the Year Ended 20X1
Revenues 1,000 units @ $100 $100,000
COGS 1,000 units @ $100 $ 40,000
Gross profit 1,000 units @ $40 $ 60,000
SG&A $ 30,000
Operating profit $ 30,000

For 20X2, the input costs(COGS) will increase by $5 per unit.


1. Calculate the gross margin and operating margin for Alfredo, Inc., for 20X1.
2. Calculate the 20X2 gross margin and operating margin assuming that
a. Entire increase in input cost is passed on to the customers through an equal
increase in selling price. The number of units sold is not affected.
b. Selling price is increased by 5% and the number of units sold decreases by
5%
c. Selling price is increased by 5% and the number of units sold decreases by
10%

94-248

Example: effect of price inflation


¾ Answer:
1. 20X1:

Gross margin Gross profit/sales 60%

Operating margin Operating profit/sales 30%

2. a 20X2, given an increase in unit price by $5 and no change in units sold:

Considerations in the choice of an explicit forecast horizon

¾ For buy-side analyst, the appropriate forecast horizon may simply be


the expected holding period of a stock
¾ Highly cyclical companies present difficulties when choosing a forecast
horizon
z Long enough that the effects of the current phase of the economic
cycle are not driving above-trend or below-trend earnings effects
z Long enough to include the middle of a business cycle
z Normalized earnings are expected mid-cycle earnings, or ,
alternatively, expected earnings when the current effects of events or
cyclicality are no longer affecting earnings
z Long enough to include the perceived benefits from events such as
acquisitions, mergers, or restructurings

99-248
Projections beyond the short-term forecast horizon

¾ Assume that a trend growth rate of revenue over the previous period will
continue
¾ Estimating Pro forma financial results based on projection of each future
period’s revenue
¾ Using earnings or some measure of cash flow over forecast period
¾ Estimating terminal value
z Relative valuation approach
9 Price multiples approach: ensure that the multiple used is
consistent with the estimate of the company’s growth rate and
required rate of return
‹ E.g. using the average P/E ratio over the last 10 years,
presupposes that the growth in earnings and required rate of
return of the stock will be the same over the previous 10 years

100-248

Projections beyond the short-term forecast horizon

z Discounted cash flow approach


9 Two key inputs: cash flow or earnings measure and an expected
future growth rate
‹ Expected earnings/cash flow should be normalized to a mid-
cycle value that is not affected by temporary initiatives and
events
‹ Small changes in the estimated (perpetual) growth rate of future
earnings/cash flow can have large effects on estimated terminal
values and current stock value
9 Recognizing Inflection points: those instances when the future will
not be like the past, due to changes in a company’s or an industry’s
competitive environment or changes in the overall economy
‹ Changes in Overall economic environment
‹ Changes in Business cycle stages
‹ Changes in government regulations
‹ Technology

101-248

Sales-based pro forma company model

¾ Use segment information and create segment forecasts when the


subject company has business or geographical segments that differ from
each other in important respects
¾ Use sensitivity analysis or scenario analysis to estimate a range of
possible outcomes and their probabilities when appropriate

102-248
Sales-based pro forma company model

¾ Steps in developing a sales-based pro forma model:


z Estimate revenue growth and future expected revenue (using market
growth plus market share, trend growth rate, or growth relative o GDP
growth)
z Estimate COGS (based on a percentage of sales, or on a more
detailed method based on business strategy or competitive
environment)
z Estimate SG&A (as either fixed, growing with revenue, or using some
other estimation technique)
z Estimate financing costs (using interest rates, debt levels, and the
effects of any large anticipated increases or decreases in capital
expenditures or anticipated changes in financial structure)
z Estimate income tax expense and cash taxes (using historical
effective rates and trends, segment information for different tax
jurisdictions, and anticipated growth in high- and low-tax segments)

103-248

Sales-based pro forma company model

z Estimate cash taxes, taking into account changes in deferred tax


items
z Model the balance sheet based on items that flow from the income
statement [working capital accounts (i.e. account receivable,
accounts payable, and inventory)]
z Use depreciation and capital expenditures (for maintenance and for
growth) to estimate capital expenditures and net PP&E for the
balance sheet
z Use the completed pro forma income statement and balance sheet to
construct a pro forma cash flow statement

The Gordon Growth Model


¾ Assumptions
z The firm expects to pay a dividend, D, in one year
z dividends will grow at a constant rate, g, forever.
z The growth rate (g) is less than the required rate (r)
¾ The formula is as follows:
D1
V0
rg
¾ Limitations
z Very sensitive to estimates of r and g
z Difficult with non-dividend stocks
z Difficult with unpredictable growth patterns (use multi-stage model)

107-248

The Gordon Growth Model

¾ The value of a firm’s equity has two components


1)The present value of a perpetual cash flow of equity
2)The present value of its present value of growth opportunities (PVGO)
V 0 = E0 /r + PVGO
where: E=no-growth earnings level
r=required return on equity
¾ Justified P/E
z leading P/E = P 0 /E 1 = (1 – b) / (r – g)
z trailing P/E = P 0 /E 0 = (1 – b)*(1 + g) / (r – g)

108-248
The Gordon Growth Model
¾ Strengths
z Applicable to stable, mature, dividend paying companies
z Applicable for valuing market indices
z Easily communicated and explained
z Used to determine price-implied growth rates, required rates of return, and
value of growth opportunities.
z Supplement other, more complex valuation methods.
¾ Weaknesses
z Calculate values are very sensitive to the assumed growth rate and required
rate of return
z Not applicable to non-dividend paying stocks
z Inapplicable to unstable growth, dividend-paying stocks

109-248

Discounted cash flow models


¾Valuing Preferred Stock

¾Example: Calculating value with the H-model
Omega Foods currently pays a dividend of €2.00. The growth rate, which is
currently 20 percent, is expected to decline linearly over the next 10 years to a
stable rate of 5 percent thereafter. The required return is 12 percent. Calculate
the current value of Omega.

Remember that the H-model provides only an approximation of the value of
Omega shares. To find the exact answer, we’d have to forecast each of the first
ten dividends, applying a different growth rate to each, and then discount them
back to the present at 12 percent. In general, the H-value approximation is
more accurate the shorter the high-growth period, t, and/or the smaller the
spread between the short-term and long-term growth rates, gS-gL

¾Three-stage DDM: the growth rate fits the three growth stages
1. R&M has a current dividend of $1.00 and a
required rate of return of 12 percent. A dividend
growth rate of 15 percent is projected for the
next two years, followed by a 10 percent growth
rate for the next four years before settling down
to a constant 4 percent growth rate thereafter.
Calculate the current value of R&M.
2. As an analyst, you have gathered the following
information on a company you are tracking. The
current annual dividend is 0.75. Dividends are
expected to grow at a rate of 12 percent over the
next three years, decline linearly to 4 percent
over the next six years, and then remain at a
long-term equilibrium growth rate of 4 percent in
perpetuity. The required return is 9 percent.

4 D4 $1.455(1.10) $1.600
5 D5 $1.600(1.10) $1.760

Now we enter the cash flows into our calculator, noting that the total cash flow at Time

Introduction to Free Cash Flows


¾The reason for Using Free Cash Flow(FCFF/FCFE):
z Many firms pay no, or low, cash dividends.
z Dividends are paid at the discretion of the board of directors. It may,
consequently, be poorly aligned with the firm’s long-run profitability.
z If a company is viewed as an acquisition target, free cash flow is a more
appropriate measure because the new owners will have discretion over its
distribution (control perspective).
z Free cash flows may be more related to long-run profitability of the firm as
compared to dividends.

125-248

Introduction to Free Cash Flows

126-248
Introduction to Free Cash Flows
¾The Choice of using FCFF or FCFE
z FCFE is easier and more straightforward to use in cases where the
company’s capital structure is not particularly volatile.
z If a company has negative FCFE and significant debt outstanding, FCFF
is generally the best choice

Equity value=Firm value – Market value of debt

127-248

FCFF and FCFE Valuation Approaches


¾ 1)
FCFF: the cash flow available to all of the firm’s investors (stock holders
and bondholders) after all operating expenses (including tax) have been
paid and necessary investments in working capital and fixed capital have
been made.
z The value of the firm is estimated as the present value of the expected future
z FCFF discounted at the WACC:

FCFFt = FCFFt-1 h (1+g)

z Constant Growth Valuation Model

Firm Value=FCFF1 / (WACC-g) = FCFF0(1+g) / (WACC-g)

128-248

FCFF and FCFE Valuation Approaches


¾ 2)
FCFE: the cash flow from operations minus capital expenditures minus
payments to (and plus receipts from) debt-holders.
z The value of equity: the present value of the expected future FCFE discounted at
the required return on equity(r).

FCFEt = FCFEt-1 h (1+g)

z The methods to estimate r:

CAPM, APT, the Gordon growth model, and a build-up method

z Constant Growth Valuation Model

Equity Value=FCFE1 / (r-g)

NCC (Non-cash charges) Adjustments


Issue #1: NCC (Non-cash charges) adjustments for FCFF
z The most significant noncash charge is usually depreciation (add back).
z Amortization of intangibles should be added back to net income, much like
depreciation.
z Provisions for restructuring charges and other noncash losses should be
added back to net income. If the firm is accruing these costs to cover future
cash outflows, then the forecast of future free cash flow should be reduced
accordingly. Gains and losses on sale of long-term assets are also removed
(they would be accounted for under fixed capital investment).

134-248

NCC (Non-cash charges) Adjustments


Issue #1: NCC (Non-cash charges) adjustments for FCFF
z Income from restructuring charge reversals and other noncash gains
should be subtracted from net income.
z The amortization of a bond discount should be added back to net income,
and the accretion of the bond premium should be subtracted from net
income to calculate FCFF.
z Deferred taxes, which result from differences in the timing of reporting
income and expenses for accounting versus tax purposes, must be carefully
analyzed.
9 Over time, differences between book and taxable income should offset
each other and have no significant effect on overall cash flows.
9 If, however, the analyst expects deferred tax liabilities to continue to
increase (i.e., not reverse), increases in deferred tax liabilities should be
added back to net income.
9 Increases in deferred tax assets that are not expected to reverse should
be subtracted from net income.

135-248
Example: NCC (Non-cash charges) Adjustments
¾ Example: use the following information to answer Questions 17 through 19.
Meyer Henderson, CFA, is analyzing the financials of Roth Department Stores.
He intends to use a free cash flow to the firm (FCFF) model to value Roth's
common stock. In the 2007 financial statements and footnotes he has identified
the following items:
z Item #1: Roth reported depreciation and software amortization of $23 million
in 2007.
z Item #2: The deferred tax liability increased by $17 million in 2007.
z Item #3: Roth reported income of $6 million in 2007 from the reversal of
previous restructuring charges related to store closings in 2006.

136-248

Example: NCC (Non-cash charges) Adjustments


¾ Example: use the following information to answer Questions 17
through 19.
z Item #4: Net income totaled $173 million in 2007.
z Item #5: The net increase in noncash net working capital accounts was $47 million in
2007.
z Item #6: Net capital spending totaled $86 million in 2007.
z Item #7: Roth reported interest expense of $19 million.
¾ Answer
z Henderson estimated Roth's marginal tax rate to be 35%. He also expects Roth to be
profitable for the foreseeable future, so he does not expect the deferred tax liability to
reverse. As the base-year projection for his FCFF valuation, Henderson calculates
FCFF for 2007 as:

FCFF2007 = $173 + $23 - $6 + $17 + [$19(1- 0.35)] - $86 - $47 =


$86.35 million

Issue #3: Calculation FCInv


z Fixed capital investment is a net amount: It is equal to the difference between
capital expenditures (investments in long-term fixed assets) and the proceeds
from the sale of long-term assets:
FCInv = Capital Expenditure – Proceeds from sales of long-term assets
z Both capital expenditures and proceeds from long-term asset sales (if any)
are likely to be reported on the firm’s statement of cash flows.

Pay attention to FCINV :


¾ If no long-term assets were sold during the year, then capital
expenditures will also equal the change in the gross PP&E account
from the balance sheet:
z FCInv = Capital Expenditure =gross PP&Et – gross PP&Et-1
z FCInv = net PP&Et – net PP&Et-1+ depreciation
¾ The difference between gross PP&E and net PP&E is depreciation
z gross PP&Et = net PP&Et + accumulate depreciation
z “depreciation” defines to the depreciation from time t-1 to time t
z Does “depreciation” equal to “accumulate depreciation” ?

9 “Purchase of PP&E”
9 “Proceeds from disposal of fixed assets”
FCInv = Capital Expenditure – Proceeds from sales of long-term assets
z Not given directly, find gain (loss) on asset sales from the income
statement and PP&E figures from balance sheet:
FCInv = ending gross PP&E – beginning gross PP&E – gain on sale

FCInv = ending net PP&E – beginning net PP&E + depreciation – gain

Example: Calculating FCINV with no long-term asset sales
¾ Example (1): Airbrush, Inc. financial statements for 2009 include the following
information:
2009 2008
Gross PP&E 5,000 4,150
Accumulated depreciation 1,500 1,200
Net PP&E 3,500 2,950
There were no sales of PP&E during the year; depreciation expense was $300.
Calculate Airbrush’s FCINV for 2009.
¾ Answer:

FCINV =ending gross PP&E-beginning gross PP&E =capital expenditures =

$5,000 - $4,150 = $850

¾ Example (2): Calculating FCINV with long-term asset sales


Use the same information for Airbrush, Inc. as in the previous example, but now
also suppose that the company reports capital expenditures of $1,400, long-term
asset sales of $600, and depreciation expense of $850. The long-term assets
sold were fully depreciated. Calculate Airbrush’s revised FCINV for 2009.
¾ Answer:
Revised FCINV = capital expenditures – proceeds from sales of long-term
assets = $1,400 -$600 =$800

143-248

Example: Calculating FCFF


¾ Example (3): Given the following information, calculate FCFE:
z Net income = $50.
z Working capital investment = $4.
z Beginning gross fixed assets = $90; ending gross fixed assets = $136.
z Beginning accumulated depreciation = $30; ending accumulated depreciation = $40.
z Depreciation expense = $27.
z Capital expenditures = $65.
z Net borrowing = $0.
z In addition, a piece of equipment with an original book value of $19 was sold for $10.
The equipment had a book value at the time of the sale of $2. The gain was classified
as unusual. Free cash flow to equity is closest to:
A. $6 B. $10 C. $18
¾ Answer:
z B Recognize that the firm generated $10 in cash and a noncash $8 gain on the sale of
the equipment. Then calculate FCFE as NI plus depreciation minus the noncash gain
minus FCInv minus WCInv + net borrowing:
FCFE = $50 + $27 - $8 - ($65-$10) - $4 + $0 = $10

Example: Calculating FCFF with Preferred Stock
¾Answer:
Solution: C
z C With the bonds trading at par, the interest expense is based on the
before-tax yield:

interest = $600 h 0.075 = $45


z Addback preferred dividends to net income available to common to get
FCFF:

FCFF = NI (available to common) + NCC + [Int h (1- tax rate)] + preferred


dividends -FCInv - WCInv

FCFF= 125 +50+[45h(1- 0.40)]+14-100-30=$86

Cash Flow From Operations Forecasts for 2010
Net income $56
+ depreciation 50
- WCINV 25
Cash flow from operations $81

¾Answer
z Fixed capital investment is equal to capital expenditures (because there are
no asset sales), which is equal to the change in gross PP&E:
FCInv = 400 - 300 = 100
z Working capital investment is the change in the working capital accounts,
excluding cash and short-term borrowings:

WCInv = (AcctsRec2010 + Inv2010 - AcctsPay2010) - (AcctsRec2009 +


Inv2009 – AcctsPay2009)

WCInv= (30 + 40 - 20) - ( 15 + 30 - 20) = 50 – 25 = 25

153-248
Example: Calculating FCFF and FCFE
z Given that depreciation is the only noncash charge, we can calculate FCFF
from net income:

FCFF = NI + NCC + [lnt x (1 - tax rate)] - FCInv - WCInv


= 56 + 50+ [15 x (1 - 0.3)] – 100 – 25 = -8.5
= 56 +50 + 10.5 - l00 – 25 = -8.5

z Its entirely possible that FCFF can be negative in the short term. Well talk
more later about how to value firms with negative FCFF.
z Net borrowing is the difference between the long-term and short-term debt
accounts:

Net Borrowing = (114 + 20) - (100 + 10) = 24


FCFE = FCFF - [lnt x (1 - tax rate)] + net borrowing
= -8.5 - 10.5 + 24 = 5

¾Example: Calculating firm value with a single-stage FCFF model


Knappa Valley Winery’s (KVW) most recent FCFF is $5,000,000. KVW’s target
debt-to-equity ratio is 0.25. The market value of the firm’s debt is $10,000,000, and
KVW has 2,000,000 shares of common stock outstanding. The firm’s tax rate is 40
percent, the shareholders require a return of 16 percent on their investment, the
firm’s before-tax cost of debt is 8 percent, and the expected long-term growth rate
in FCFF is 5 percent. Calculate the value of the firm and the value per share of the
equity.

156-248
Example (1): Single-Stage Model
¾Answer:
Note that the problem gives the FCFF in the most recent year (FCFF0). Therefore, you
need to increase FCFF0 at the growth rate by one year (at the 5% rate) to get FCFF1.
let’s calculate the WACC. The target debt-to-equity ratio is 0.25. This implies that for every
$1 of debt, there is $4 of equity, for total capital of $5. Since total assets equals total capital,
it follows that the target debt-to-asset ratio is 1/5, or 20%, and the target equity-to-asset
ratio is 4/5, or 80%.The WACC is: WACC (0.8 u 0.16)  > 0.20 u 0.08(1  0.40) @ 0.1376 13.76%
5, 000, 000 u1.050
We can now calculate the value of the firm as: Value of firm $59,931,507
0.1376  0.050

Given that debt is worth $10,000,000θthe implied total value of the equity is:
Value of equity $59,931,507  $10, 000, 000 $49,931,507
$49,931,507
With 2,000,000 shares outstanding, the value of the equity per share is: $24.97
2, 000, 000
Notice that the actual debt-to-equity ratio (10,000,000/49,931,507 = 0.20) does not equal
the target ratio of 0.25. There is nothing inconsistent in this example. WACC is usually
calculated using target capital weights.

157-248

Example (2): Single-Stage Model


¾Example: Calculating value with a single-stage UCUE model
Ridgeway Construction has an FCFE of 2.50 Canadian dollars (C$) per share
and is currently operating at a target debt-to-equity ratio of 0.4. The expected
return on the market is 9 percent, the risk free rate is 4 percent, and Ridgeway has
a beta of 1.5. The expected growth rate of FCFE is 4.5 percent. Calculate the value
of Ridgeway stock.
¾Answer:
Begin by computing the required return on equity with the CAPM:

r = 0.04 + [1.50 * (0.09-0.04)] = 0.115 = 11.5%


Note that the problem gives FCFE in the most recent year (FCFE0). The model
calls for the FCFE next year, witch is FCFE1. Therefore, you need to multiply
FCFE0 by one plus the growth rate to get FCFE1. The equity value per share is:

C $2.50 u1.045
Equity value per share C $37.32
0.115  0.045

¾ Example:
The Prentice Paint Company earned a net profit margin of 20% on revenues of $20
million this year. Fixed capital investment was $2 million, and depreciation was $3
million. Working capital investment equals 7.5% of sales every year. Net income,
fixed capital investment, depreciation, interest expense, and sales are expected to
grow at 10% per year for the next five years . After five years, the growth in sales,
net income, fixed capital investment, depreciation , and interest expense will
decline to a stable 5% per year. The tax rate is 40%, and Prentice has 1 million
shares of common stock outstanding and long-term debt paying 12.5% interest
trading at its par value of $32 million. Calculate the value of the firm and its equity
using the FCFF model if the WACC is 17% during the high-growth stage and 15%
during the stable stage.

z Notice that WACC in the high-growth stage(17%) is different than the stable
stage(15%)

162-248
Example: Two-Stage Model
¾ Answer:
z We calculated terminal value in Year 5 using 15%, but we’ll calculate the
present value today of the high-growth cash flows and the terminal value at
17%. The total of the firm today is:
$6.49 $7.13 $7.84 $8.63 $109.20
z value of firm=     $70.06 Step 5
1.171 1.17 2 1.173 1.17 4 1.175
z Since, in all likelihood, we would want to use our financial calculators to
perform this calculation more quickly and accurately, the appropriate
keystrokes are: Step 6
CF0 =0; C01=6.49; C02=7.13; C03=7.84; C04=8.63; C05=109.20; I=17;

Introduction to Price Multiples

¾ The method of comparables is perhaps the most widely used approach


for analysts reporting valuation judgments on the basis of price multiples
¾ The economic rationale for the method of comparables is the Law of One
Price.
¾ A justified price multiple for the stock is the estimated fair value of
multiples.
¾ We can justify a multiple based on the method of comparables or the
method based on forecasted fundamentals
¾ The justified price multiple is also called the warranted price multiple or
the intrinsic price multiple

9 one of several possible statistical approaches to the problem of cyclical
earnings
9 the method does not account for changes in the business’s size

z The method of average ROE
9 Normal EPS is calculated as the average return on equity from the most
recent full cycle, multiplied by current book value per share
9 by using recent book value per share, reflects more accurately the effect
on EPS of growth or shrinkage in the company’s size
9 For that reason, the method of average ROE is sometimes preferred

174-248
Example: Normalizing EPS
z Using the data in the following figure, calculate normalized earnings using the
method of historical average EPS and the method of average return on equity
for Magnolia Enterprises.

P/E to growth (PEG) ratio

¾P/E to growth (PEG) ratioφ


P/E Ratio
PEG ratio=
g
z One metric that appears to address the impact of earnings growth on P/E
ratios.
z Calculated as the stock’s P/E divided by the expected earnings growth rate.
The ratio in effect calculates a stock’s P/E per unit of expected growth.
z Stocks with lower PEGs are more attractive than stocks with higher PEGs,
all else equal.
z The PEG ratio must be used with care for several reasons:
9 Assumes a linear relationship between P/E ratios and growth. The
model for P/E in terms of DDM shows that in theory the relationship is
not linear.
9 Does not factor in differences in risk, a very important component of
P/E ratios.
9 Does not account for differences in the duration of growth.

176-248

P/B

¾ The measure of value in the P/B ratio, book value per share, is a stock or
level variable coming from the balance sheet.
¾ Book value per share attempts to represent the investment that common
shareholders have made in the company, on a per-share basis.
¾ The computation of book value:
z Common shareholders’ equity = (Shareholders’ equity) - (the total
value of equity claims that are senior to common stock)
z (Common shareholders’ equity)/(number of common stock shares
outstanding) = book value per share

177-248
P/B

¾Advantages:
z BV almost always>0,
z BV more stable than EPS.
z Measures NAV per share, more fit for valuing companies composed
chiefly of liquid assets, such as finance institutions.
z Differences in P/Bs may be related to differences in long-run average
returns, according to empirical research.
¾Disadvantages:
z Size differences cause misleading comparisons.
z Influenced by accounting choices.
z BVMV due to inflation/ technology.
z Other assets besides those recognized in accounting may be critical.

178-248

P/B

Justified P/B
¾use fundamental forecasts to estimate a stock’s justified P/B ratio
P/B=(ROE-g) / (r-g)
z The P/B increases as ROE increases.
z It also increases as the spread between ROE and r increases.
¾Common adjustments to the book value include:
z Excluding intangible assets such as goodwill.
z Since the book value forecasts are not widely disseminated like EPS
forecasts, analysts typically use trailing BV when calculating P/Bs.

179-248

P/S
¾Advantages:
z Meaningful even for distressed firms.
z Sales revenue not easily manipulated.
z Not as volatile as P/E ratios.
z Useful in valuing mature, cyclical, and start-up firms.
z Differences in P/Ss may be related to differences in long-run average
returns.
¾Disadvantages:
z High sales do not imply high profits and cash flows.
z Does not capture cost structure differences.
z Revenue recognition practices still distort sales.

investments
¾ Advantage
z Useful for comparing firms with different degrees of financial
leverage
z EBITDA is useful for valuing capital-intensive business EB
z EBITDA is usually positive even when EPS is not.
¾ Disadvantages
z If working capital is growing, EBITDA will overstate CFO
z FCFF is more strongly linked with valuation theory than EBITDA

Dividend Yield
z For practical purposes, dividend yield, D/P is preferred over P/D. (zero
dividends are a problem)
z Trailing dividend yield is generally calculated as four times the most recent
quarterly per-share dividend divided by the current market price per share.
(The most recent quarterly dividend times four is known as the dividend rate.)

zRelative strength (RSTR) indicators compare a stock’s performance
during a period either
9 to its own past performance

zThe simplest relative strength indicator of the first type is the stock’s
compound rate of return over some specified time, such as six months
or one year.
zA simple relative strength indicator of the second type is the stock’s
performance divided by the performance of an equity index.
9 This indicator may be scaled to 1.0 at the beginning of the study
period.
9 If the stock goes up quickly (slowly) than the index, then relative
strength will be above (below) 1.0

Concept of Residual Income


¾ Residual income (economic profit): is net income less a charge for
common stockholder’s opportunity cost of capital.
RI = net income – equity capital * cost of equity
¾ EVA (economic value added): measures the value added to shareholders
by management during a given year
EVA = NOPAT – WACC * invested capital
= EBIT*(1 – t) - $WACC
Total capital = book value of long-term debt + book value of equity
= net working capital + net fixed assets
¾ Market value added (MVA) = market value – total capital

194-248

Concept of Residual Income


¾Example 1
z Madeira Fruit Suppliers, Inc. (MFS) distributes fruit to grocery stores in large
U.S. cities. The book value of its assets is $1.4 billion, which is financed with
$800 million in equity and $600 million in debt. Its before- tax cost of debt is
3.33 percent, and its marginal tax rate is 34 percent. MFS has a cost of equity
of 12.3 percent. MFS’s abbreviated income statement is shown in Following:
EBIT $142,000,000
Less: Interest expense (20,000,000)
Pretax income 122,000,000
Less: Income tax expense (41,480,000)
Net income $80,520,000
z Determine whether MFS is profitable by calculating residual income and
explaining its relationship to reported accounting income.

195-248
Concept of Residual Income
¾Answer:
z While the accounting net income of $80,520,000 indicates that MFS is profitable, it
remains to be seen whether the firm is profitable after deducting a charge for equity. The
dollar-based equity charge is:

equity charge = equity capital hcost of equity= $800 million h 0.123


= $98,400,000
RI is calculated as
Net income $80,520,000
— Equity charge 98,400,000
Residual income —$17,880,000
z Even though MFS is profitable in the traditional accounting sense, it is economically
unprofitable after taking into account the necessary charge to meet stockholders’
opportunity cost of supplying capital to the company.

196-248

Concept of Residual Income


¾Example 2
z VBM Inc. reports NOPAT of $2,100, a WACC of 14.2%, and invested capital of
$18,000. The market price of the firm’s stock is $25 per share, and VBM has
800 shares outstanding. The market value of the firm’s long-term debt is $4,000.
Calculate VBM’s economic value added (EVA) and market value added (MVA).
¾Answer:
z First calculate EVA:
$WACC = 0.142x$18,000 = $2,556
EVA = $2,100-$2,556 = -$456
z The market value of the company is the market value of the equity plus the
market value of the debt:
MV of company = ($25x800)+$4,000 = $24,000
The firm’s MVA is: MVA = $24,000-$18,000 = $6,000

¾ Under the residual income model, the intrinsic value of the stock can
be expressed as:
V0 = B0 + (RI1/(1+r) + RI2/(1+r)^2 + RI3/(1+r)^3….)
zRI model is relatively less sensitive to terminal value estimates than
dividend discount and free cash flow models. This is because intrinsic
values estimated with residual income models include the firm’s current
book value, which usually represents a substantial percentage of the
estimated intrinsic value

Multistage Residual Income Model


z In the residual income model, intrinsic value is the sum of three components:
intrinsic value = book value + (PV of interim high-growth residual income)
+ (PV of continuing residual income)
z Step 1: Calculate the current book value per share.
z Step 2: Calculate residual income in each year 1 to T-1 during the interim high-
growth period and discount them back to today at the required return on equity.
z Step 3: Calculate continuing residual income that begins at the end of the
high-growth period starting in year T, and then calculate the present value of
continuing residual income as of the end of year T-1 using the following formula
(Four Assumptions):
PV of continuing residual income in year T -1 = RIT/(1 + r – )

PV of continuing residual income in year T-1 = RIT /r
¾Residual income drops immediately to zero
PV of continuing residual income in year T-1 = RIT /(1+r)
¾Residual income declines to long-run level in mature industry after year t:

Residual Income Valuation Model
¾ Strengths
z terminal value does not dominate the intrinsic estimate;
z accounting data, which is easy to find;
z applicable to firms that do not pay dividends or do not have positive
expected free cash flows in the short run or have volatile cash flows;
z Applicable even when cash flows are volatile;
z focus on economic profitability rather than just on accounting profitability.
¾ Weaknesses
z rely on accounting data that can be manipulated by management;
z reliance on accounting data requires numerous and significant adjustments;
z assume that the clean surplus relation holds or that its failure to hold has
been properly taken into account.(i.e., ending BV = beginning BV + earnings -
dividend)

214-248

Residual Income Valuation Model

¾ Appropriate for:
z Not pay dividends, or the stream of payments is too volatile to be
sufficiently predictable;
z Free cash flows are negative for the foreseeable future;
z Terminal value forecast is highly uncertain;
¾ Not appropriate
z Clean surplus accounting relation is violated significantly;
z Significant uncertainty concerning the estimates of book value and return
on equity.

215-248

Clean Surplus Violations


¾ The clean surplus relationship
z The clean surplus relationship can be expressed as:

Bt Bt 1  Et  Dt
z The clean surplus relationship may not hold when items are charged directly
to shareholders’ equity and do not go through the income statement. Items
that can bypass the income statement include:
9Foreign currency translation gains and losses that flow directly to
retained earnings under the all-current method;
9The minimum liability adjustment in pension accounting;
9Changes in the market value of debt and equity securities classified as
available-for-sale.
z If the clean surplus relation doesn’t hold, the ROE forecast will not be
accurate.

216-248
Variations form Fair Value
¾ The accrual method of accounting causes many valance sheet items to
be reported at book values that are significantly different than their market
values, which include the following:
z Operating leases: should be capitalized by increasing assets and liabilities;
z Special purpose entities (SPEs): assets and liabilities are not reflected;
z Reserves and allowances: should be adjusted.
z Inventory for companies: that use LIFO should be adjusted to FIFO;
z Pension asset or liability: should be adjusted to reflect the funded status;
z Deferred tax liabilities: should be eliminated and reported as equity if the
liability is not expected to reverse.
¾ Intangible asset effects on book value: goodwill and productivity R&D should
include;
¾ Nonrecurring Items and Other Aggressive Accounting Practices should be
adjusted;
¾ International Accounting Differences should be considered.

Normalized Earnings

¾ Normalized earnings

z Exclude nonrecurring and unusual items;

z In the case of private firms with a concentrated control, there may be

discretionary or tax-motivated expenses that need to be adjusted

when calculating normalized earnings.

z Real estate owned by the firm may merit treatment separate from that

firm operations.

223-248

Example: Normalized Earnings


¾ Tim Groh is the principal shareholder, CEO, and founder of Arbutus
Generators. Arbutus reports the following:
z Groh's compensation of $2,500,000 is included in the firm's selling, general,
and administrative (SG&A) expenses.
z Arbutus leases a warehouse for $100,000 a year from one of its largest
suppliers.
z Arbutus owns a vacant office building with reported SG&A expenses of
$150,000 and $25,000 of depreciation expense.
z Arbutus's capital structure has too little leverage.
z An analyst determines that a market-based compensation figure for Groh's
position is $1,000,000 and that the office building is not needed for core
operations. The market lease rate of the warehouse is $130,000.
z Based on 1-4 above, what adjustments should the analyst make to Arbutus's
reported income to estimate normalized earnings (earnings), assuming the
firm will be acquired?

224-248

Example: Normalized Earnings


¾ Answer:
z Because the market rate is $1,500,000 less, SG&A expenses should be
reduced by $1,500,000 to reflect a normalized compensation expense.
z Because the market lease rate is $30,000 higher than reported, SG&A
expenses should be increased by $30,000 to reflect a normalized lease rate.
z Because the office building is non-core, SG&A expenses should be reduced
by $150,000, and depreciation expense should be reduced by $25,000.
z Because the capital structure is non-optimal, the analyst will drop interest
expense from the calculation of operating income under the assumption that
the capital structure will be changed if the firm is acquired. As we will see,
interest expense is added back when calculating free cash flow to the firm.

225-248
Strategic and Nonstrategic Buyers

¾ Strategic transaction, valuation of the firm is based in part on the

perceived synergies with the acquirer’s other assets.

¾ A financial transaction (nonstrategic) transaction assumes no synergies,

as when one firm buys another in a dissimilar industry.

¾ When estimating normalized earnings for a strategic transaction, the

analyst should incorporate any synergies as an increase in revenues or

as a reduction in costs.

226-248

Example: Strategic and Nonstrategic Buyers


¾ Example:
z An analyst is valuing a firm for two different buyers. Buyer A is a firm, in the same
industry as the target firm, which expects to reduce costs at the target firm by
eliminating redundancies. Buyer B is a firm in another industry.
z Calculate the normalized EBITDA for each buyer given the information below.

Reported EBITDA $4,800,000


Current executive compensation $900,000
Market-based executive compensation $600,000
Current SG&A expenses $8,000,000
SG&A expenses after synergistic savings $7,600,000

¾ Answer:
z Both strategic (Buyer A) and nonstrategic (Buyer B) buyers will attempt to reduce
executive compensation to market levels. So the adjustment for both buyers to
generate normalized EBITDA is $4,800,000 + ($900,000 — $600,000) = $5,100,000.
z However, only Buyer A will be able to realize synergistic savings of $400,000
($8,000,000 — $7,600,000). So normalized EBITDA for Buyer A is $5,500,000 and for
Buyer B it is $5,100,000.

227-248

Estimating Cash Flow


¾ Estimating Cash Flow
z The valuation of equity depends on the definition of value used. Also,
controlling and no controlling equity interests will have quite different
values. These differences should be accounted for in cash flow estimates and
assumptions.
z When there is significant uncertainty about a private company’s future
operations, the analyst should examine several scenarios when estimating
future cash flows.
z Weighted average of these values is used to estimate firm value, weighted
average scenario cash flow may be discounted using a single discount rate
to arrive at an estimate of firm value.
z The analyst should be aware of the potential bias in management estimates.
z FCFF is usually more appropriate when the significant changes in the firm’s
capital structure.

228-248
Income Approach
¾The free cash flow method
z2-stage model
¾The capitalized cash flow method
zsingle-stage model: a single measure of economic benefit is divided by
a capitalization rate to arrive at firm value, where the capitalization rate
is required rate of return minus a growth rate.
FCFF1

WACC  g
Value of equity Value of firm  MVD
FCFE1
Value of equity

229-248

Example: The Capitalized Cash Flow Method


¾ Example:
z Given the following figures, calculate the value of the firm and equity using the
CCM.
FCFF in one year $12,100,000
Growth rate of FCFF 4.0%
WACC 15.0%
Market value of debt $4,000,000
¾ Answer:
z Step 1: Calculate the value of the firm.
Using the FCFF formula:
value of firm = ($12,100,000) / (0.15 - 0.04) = $110,000,000
z Step 2: Calculate the value of the equity.
Subtract the debt value from firm value:
value of equity = $110,000,000 - $4,000,000 = $106,000,000
Note that the capitalization rate in this example is 11% (15% - 4%). The WACC
will be greater when more (relatively expensive) equity and less debt are used,
resulting in lower estimates of firm and equity values.

230-248

Income Approach

¾Residual income or The excess earnings method


zEE = firm earnings – the earnings required to provide the required rate of
return on working capital and fixed asset

¾4 steps of EEM
zStep 1 Calculate the required return for working capital and fixed assets
zStep 2 Calculate the excess earnings
zStep 3 Value the intangible assets
zStep 4 Sum the asset values to arrive at the total firm value

231-248
Example: EEM
¾ Example:
z Given the following figures, calculate the value of the firm using the EEM.

Working capital $300,000


Fixed assets $1,000,000
Normalized earnings (year just ended) $130,000
Required return for working capital 6%
Required return for fixed assets 10%
Growth rate of residual income 5%
Discount rate for intangible assets 14%

¾ Answer:
z Step 1: Calculate the required return for working capital and fixed assets.
Based on the required rates of return for working capital and fixed assets, the
required earnings are:
working capital: $300,000 x 6% = $18,000
fixed assets: $1,000,000 x 10% = $100,000

232-248

Example: EEM
z Step 2: Calculate the excess earnings.

excess earnings = $130,000 - $18,000 - $100,000 = $12,000


z Step 3: Value the intangible assets.
Using the formula for a growing perpetuity, the discount rate for intangible
assets, and the growth rate for excess earnings:

value of intangible assets = ($12,000 x 1.05) / (0.14 - 0.05) = $140,000


z Step 4: Sum the asset values to arrive at the total firm value.

Firm value = $300,000 + $1,000,000 + $140,000 = $1,440,000


z Professor's Note: In the excess earnings method, the FCFF may be given in
place of the normalized earnings. The growth rate in free cash flow may be
given in place of the growth rate of residual income. After these substitutions,
the calculations are identical to those above.

Estimating The Discount Rate For Private Companies


¾Estimating the discount rate
zSize premium
9 Size premiums are often added to the discount rates for small private
companies.
zAvailability and cost of debt
9 A private firm may have less access to debt financing than a public firm.
zAcquirer versus target
9 When acquiring a private firm, some acquirers will incorrectly use their own
(lower) cost of capital, rather than the higher rate appropriate for the target.
zProjection risk
9 Because of the lower availability of information from private firms and
managers
zLifecycle stage
9 It is particularly difficult to estimate the discount rate for firms in an early
stage of development.

Estimating The Discount Rate For Private Companies
¾3 models to estimate the discount rate
zCAPM
9
Beta is estimated from public firm data, and this may not be appropriate
for private firms that have little chance of going public or being acquired by
a public firm.
zExpanded CAPM
9 This version of the CAPM includes additional premiums for size and firm-
specific (unsystematic) risk.
zBuild-up method
9 When it is not possible to find comparable public firms for beta estimation,
the build-up method can be used. Beginning with the expected return on
the market (beta is implicitly assumed to be one), premiums are added for
small size, industry factors, and company specific factors.

235-248

Market Approach Methods

¾Using price multiples and data from previous public and private transaction
z Guideline Public Company Method (GPCM)
z Guideline Transactions Method (GTM)
z Prior Transaction Method (PTM)
z Private forms may have risks not common to public firms, such as greater
company risk and illiquidity. Therefore, it is important that the public
comparables be chosen carefully.
¾Market Multiples
z Large size: EBIT/EBITDA multiples
z Small size: net income multiples

236-248

Guideline Public Company Method (GPCM)


¾GPCM:
z Usingprice multiples from trade data for public companies, with
adjustments to the multiples to account for differences between the subject
firm and the comparables.
¾To estimate a control premium
z Transaction type: A financial transaction typically has a smaller price
premium.
z Industry conditions: there is a flurry in industry acquisition activity, driving
up acquisition prices, share prices of public companies may already reflect
some premium for control.
z Type of consideration: estimates of the control premium when acquisitions
are made with shares that are at higher temporary or “bubble” values will
be overstated.
z Reasonableness: the use of control premiums and price multiples can quickly
result in significant differences in valuations from historical pricing.

237-248
Example: Guideline Public Company Method (GPCM)
z An analyst, Natalie Hoskins, is valuing a private firm, Rensselaer Components,
using the GPCM and MVIC to EBITDA multiples. Hoskins has gathered data for
comparable public firms; however they are larger in size than Rensselaer.
Hoskins decided to deflate the average public company multiple by 20% to
account for the higher risk of Rensselaer.
z A premium of 30% was paid for a firm by an acquiring firm in the same industry.
The acquirer exchanged stock for the target.
z Other data are as follows:

Market value of debt $1,100,000


Normalized EB1TDA $12,800,000
Average MVIC/EBITDA multiple 8.0

1. Comment on the relevance of the information above for the valuation of


Rensselaer.
2. Calculate the equity value of Rensselaer using the GPCM.

238-248

Example: Guideline Public Company Method (GPCM)

¾Answer to question 1:
z The application of control premiums is difficult and requires subjective
judgment. The control premium of 30% is probably not relevant for the
valuation of Rensselaer. The premium for the prior acquisition likely
contained some value for synergies since it was a strategic transaction,
and because stock was used for the purchase, there is also the
possibility that the stock value at the time was inflated, adding to the
estimated premium.
z The adjustment to the public company multiple of 20% is appropriate
because growth and risk may differ between public comparables and
private firms.

239-248

Example: Guideline Public Company Method (GPCM)

¾Answer to question 2:
z The adjustment to the MVIC/EBITDA multiple for the higher risk of
Rensselaer is:
8.0 x (1 - 0.20) = 6.4
z No control premium is applied.
z The adjusted multiple is applied against the normalized EBITDA:
6.4 x $12,800,000 = $81,920,000
z Subtracting out the debt results in the equity value:
$81,920,000 - $1,100,000 = $80,820,000

240-248
Guideline Transactions Method
¾GTM:
z Prior acquisition values for entire (public and private) companies that
already reflect any control premiums are used, so no additional
adjustment for a controlling interest is necessary.
z When using multiples from historical transactions, several issues
should be considered:
9 Transaction type: If the subject transaction is nonstrategic, the
analyst may need to adjust the historical multiple.
9 Contingent consideration: transactions with contingent
consideration should be scrutinized before they are compared to
transactions without such contingencies.
9 Type of consideration: some transactions are for stock rather than
cash, comparing transactions of different consideration type may
not be relevant.

241-248

Prior Transaction Method


9 Availability of data: the historical data for comparables that are
relevant and accurate may be limited.
9 Date of data: data from very long ago, the prices and estimated
premiums may not be relevant.
¾PTM:
z Using transactions data from the stock of the actual subject company.
z PTM is most appropriate when valuing minority (non-controlling)
interests.

242-248

Asset-based Approach
¾ABA:
z Itestimates the value of firm equity as the firm value of its assets minus
the fair value of its liabilities. It is generally not used for going
concerns.
z The asset-based approach generally results in the lowest valuation
because the use of a firm’s assets in combination usually results in
greater value creation than each of its parts individually.
z Appropriate in the following circumstances:
9 Firms with minimal profits and little hope for better prospects.
9 Finance firms, with asset and liability based on the market price and
factors
9 Investment companies such as REITs and CEICs
9 Small companies or early stage companies
9 Natural resource firms

243-248
Discount / Premium in Private Company Valuation
¾Adjustments are required when the liquidity or control position of an

to apply discounts for both a lack of control and a lack of marketability
(liquidity).

Discount / Premium in Private Company Valuation

¾Discount of lack of marketability


z Method 1: using price of restricted shares
z Method 2: the price of pre-IPO shares is compared to that of post-IPO
shares
z Method 3: estimate DLOM as the price of a put option divided by the
stock price, where the put is at the money.
¾Total Discount

Total discount 1  [(1  DLOC )(1  DLOM )]

245-248

Example: Discount / Premium

z An analyst determines that a control premium of 18% is included in the


acquisition prices of the comparable firms used for valuing a minority
interest in a private company. If she also determines that a discount for
lack of marketability of 22% is appropriate for the private company
interest, what is the total adjustment she will make to the value of the
comparables when valuing the private company interest?
z A. 33.9%.
z B. 36.0%.
z C. 40.6%.

246-248
Valuation Standards

¾Number of valuation standards have been developed, include:


z Uniform Standards of Professional Appraisal Practice (USPAP);
z International Valuation Standards;
z Statement of Standards on Valuation Services (SSVS)
¾There are many challenges involved with the implementation of
appraisal standards:
z most buyers are still unaware of them.
z Most valuation reports are private.
z It is necessarily limited due to the heterogeneity of valuations.
z Valuation will depend on the definition of value used.

247-248

It’s not the end but just beginning.

Always believe that good things are possible, and remember that
mistakes can be lessons that lead to discoveries. Take your fear and transform
it into trust; learn to rise above anxiety and doubt. Turn your "worry hours"
into "productive hours". Take the energy that you have wasted and direct it
toward every worthwhile effort that you can be involved in. You will see
beautiful things happen when you allow yourself to experience the joys of
life. You will find happiness when you adopt positive thinking into your daily
routine and make it an important part of your world.

¾Solutionto1:
Biscorrect.Thisinvestormaybewillingtopaymorethanthetypicalinvestor
becauseofhisparticularcircumstances.
¾Solutionto2:
B is correct. The purchase paid А50.0 million rather than the А65.0 million he
was willing to pay for the property. However, we have to be careful about using
a transaction price as an indication of market value because the market may
have been thin and the seller may have been distressed and willing to accept
less than the property would have sold for if it had been kept on the market for
a longer period of time. The quick sale suggests that the price may have been
lower than what a typical investor may be willing to pay. There was a
comparable property that sold for А55.0 million. Combining these facts and
