Basic Definitions

V = value of firm

FCF = free cash flow

WACC = weighted average cost of capital

rs and rd are costs of stock and debt

ws and wd are percentages of the firm that are financed with stock and debt.

Business Risk: Uncertainty in EBIT, NOPAT, and ROIC

Uncertainty about demand (unit sales).

Uncertainty about output prices.

Uncertainty about input costs.

Product and other types of liability.

Degree of operating leverage (DOL).

What is operating leverage, and how does it affect a firm’s business risk?

Operating leverage is the change in EBIT caused by a change in quantity sold.

The higher the proportion of fixed costs relative to variable costs, the greater the operating leverage.

11

Operating Breakeven

Q is quantity sold, F is fixed cost, V is variable cost, TC is total cost, and P is price per unit.

Operating breakeven = QBE

QBE = F / (P – V)

Example: F=$200, P=$15, and V=$10:

QBE = $200 / ($15 – $10) = 40.

12

Business Risk versus Financial Risk

Business risk:

Uncertainty in future EBIT, NOPAT, and ROIC.

Depends on business factors such as competition, operating leverage, etc.

Financial risk:

Additional business risk concentrated on common stockholders when financial leverage is used.

Depends on the amount of debt and preferred stock financing.

15

Why does leveraging increase return?

More cash goes to investors of Firm L.

Total dollars paid to investors:

U: NI = $1,800.

L: NI + Int = $1,080 + $1,200 = $2,280.

Taxes paid:

U: $1,200

L: $720.

In Firm L, fewer dollars are tied up in equity.

MM Theory: Zero Taxes

Firm U Firm L
EBIT $3,000 $3,000
Interest 0 1,200
NI $3,000 $1,800
CF to shareholder $3,000 $1,800
CF to debtholder 0 $1,200
Total CF $3,000 $3,000
Notice that the total CF are identical for both firms.

19

MM Results: Zero Taxes: VL = VU

MM assume: (1) no transactions costs; (2) no restrictions or costs to short sales; and (3) individuals can borrow at the same rate as corporations.

MM prove that if the total CF to investors of Firm U and Firm L are equal, then arbitrage is possible unless the total values of Firm U and Firm L are equal:

VL = VU.

Because FCF and values of firms L and U are equal, their WACCs are equal.

Therefore, capital structure is irrelevant.

20

MM Theory: Corporate Taxes

Corporate tax laws allow interest to be deducted, which reduces taxes paid by levered firms.

Therefore, more CF goes to investors and less to taxes when leverage is used.

In other words, the debt “shields” some of the firm’s CF from taxes.

21

MM Result: Corporate Taxes: VL = VU + TD

MM show that the total CF to Firm L’s investors is equal to the total CF to Firm U’s investor plus an additional amount due to interest deductibility:

CFL = CFU + rdDT.

What is value of these cash flows?

Value of CFU = VU

MM show that the value of rdDT = TD

Therefore, VL = VU + TD.

If T=40%, then every dollar of debt adds 40 cents of extra value to firm.

23

Miller’s Theory: Corporate and Personal Taxes

Personal taxes lessen the advantage of corporate debt:

Corporate taxes favor debt financing since corporations can deduct interest expenses.

Personal taxes favor equity financing, since no gain is reported until stock is sold, and long-term gains are taxed at a lower rate.

24

Miller’s Model with Corporate and Personal Taxes

VL = VU + 1− D

Tc = corporate tax rate.

Td = personal tax rate on debt income.

Ts = personal tax rate on stock income.

(1 - Tc)(1 - Ts)

(1 - Td)

25

Tc = 40%, Td = 30%, and Ts = 12%.

VL = VU + 1− D

= VU + (1 - 0.75)D

= VU + 0.25D.

Value rises with debt; each $1 increase in debt raises L’s value by $0.25.

26

Conclusions with Personal Taxes

Use of debt financing remains advantageous, but benefits are less than under only corporate taxes.

Firms should still use 100% debt.

Note: However, Miller argued that in equilibrium, the tax rates of marginal investors would adjust until there was no advantage to debt.

27

Trade-off Theory

MM theory ignores bankruptcy (financial distress) costs, which increase as more leverage is used.

At low leverage levels, tax benefits outweigh bankruptcy costs.

At high levels, bankruptcy costs outweigh tax benefits.

An optimal capital structure exists that balances these costs and benefits.

29

Signaling Theory

MM assumed that investors and managers have the same information.

But, managers often have better information. Thus, they would:

Sell stock if stock is overvalued.

Sell bonds if stock is undervalued.

Investors understand this, so view new stock sales as a negative signal.

Implications for managers?

30

Pecking Order Theory

Firms use internally generated funds first, because there are no flotation costs or negative signals.

If more funds are needed, firms then issue debt because it has lower flotation costs than equity and not negative signals.

If more funds are needed, firms then issue equity.

31

Debt Financing and Agency Costs

One agency problem is that managers can use corporate funds for non-value maximizing purposes.

The use of financial leverage:

Bonds “free cash flow.”

Forces discipline on managers to avoid perks and non-value adding acquisitions.

32

Debt Financing and Agency Costs

A second agency problem is the potential for “underinvestment”.

Debt increases risk of financial distress.

Therefore, managers may avoid risky projects even if they have positive NPVs.

33

Investment Opportunity Set and Reserve Borrowing Capacity

Firms with many investment opportunities should maintain reserve borrowing capacity, especially if they have problems with asymmetric information (which would cause equity issues to be costly).

34

Market Timing Theory

Managers try to “time the market” when issuing securities.

They issue equity when the market is “high” and after big stock price run ups.

They issue debt when the stock market is “low” and when interest rates are “low.”

The issue short-term debt when the term structure is upward sloping and long-term debt when it is relatively flat.

35

Empirical Evidence

Tax benefits are important

At optimal capital structure, $1 debt adds about $0.10 to $0.20 to value on average.

For average firm financed with 25% to 30% debt, this adds about 3% to 6% to the total value.

Bankruptcies are costly– costs can be up to 10% to 20% of firm value.

36

Empirical Evidence (Continued)

Firms have targets, but don’t make quick corrections when stock price changes cause their debt ratios to change.

Average speed of adjustment from current capital structure is about 30% per year.

Speed is about 50% per year for firms with high cash flow.

Speed is about 70% for firms with high cash flow that are above target.

37

Empirical Evidence (Continued)

Lost value from being above target is bigger than lost value from being below target.

When above target, distress costs rise very rapidly.

Sometimes companies will deliberately increase debt to above target to take advantage of unexpected investment opportunity.

38

Empirical Evidence (Continued)

After big stock price run ups, debt ratio falls, but firms tend to issue equity instead of debt.

Inconsistent with trade-off model.

Inconsistent with pecking order.

Consistent with windows of opportunity.

Many firms, especially those with growth options and asymmetric information problems, tend to maintain excess borrowing capacity.

39

Implications for Managers

Take advantage of tax benefits by issuing debt, especially if the firm has:

High tax rate

Stable sales

Low operating leverage

40

Implications for Managers (Continued)

Avoid financial distress costs by maintaining excess borrowing capacity, especially if the firm has:

Volatile sales

High operating leverage

Many potential investment opportunities

Special purpose assets (instead of general purpose assets that make good collateral)

41

Implications for Managers (Continued)

If manager has asymmetric information regarding firm’s future prospects, then avoid issuing equity if actual prospects are better than the market perceives.

Always consider the impact of capital structure choices on lenders’ and rating agencies’ attitudes

Choosing the Optimal Capital Structure: Example

b = 1.0; rRF = 6%; RPM = 6%.

Cost of equity using CAPM:

rs = rRF +b (RPM)= 6% + 1(6%) = 12%

Currently has no debt: wd = 0%.

WACC = rs = 12%.

Tax rate is T = 40%.

The Cost of Equity at Different Levels of Debt: Hamada’s Formula

MM theory implies that beta changes with leverage.

bU is the beta of a firm when it has no debt (the unlevered beta)

b = bU [1 + (1 - T)(wd/ws)]

48

The Cost of Equity for wd = 20%

Use Hamada’s equation to find beta:

b = bU [1 + (1 - T)(wd/ws)]

= 1.0 [1 + (1-0.4) (20% / 80%) ]

= 1.15

Use CAPM to find the cost of equity:

rs= rRF + bL (RPM)

= 6% + 1.15 (6%) = 12.9%

49

The WACC for wd = 20%

WACC = wd (1-T) rd + wce rs

WACC = 0.2 (1 – 0.4) (8%) + 0.8 (12.9%)

WACC = 11.28%

Repeat this for all capital structures under consideration.

The Repurchase: No Effect on Stock Price

The announcement of an intended repurchase might send a signal that affects stock price, and the previous change in capital structure affects stock price, but the repurchase itself has no impact on stock price.

If investors thought that the repurchase would increase the stock price, they would all purchase stock the day before, which would drive up its price.

If investors thought that the repurchase would decrease the stock price, they would all sell short the stock the day before, which would drive down the stock price.

Remaining Number of Shares After Repurchase

DOld is amount of debt the firm initially has, DNew is amount after issuing new debt.

If all new debt is used to repurchase shares, then total dollars used equals

(DNew – DOld) = ($53.19 - $0) = $53.19.

nPrior is number of shares before repurchase, nPost is number after. Total shares remaining:

nPost = nPrior – (DNew – DOld)/P

nPost = 10 – ($53.19/$26.60)

nPost = 8 million.

(Ignore rounding differences; see Ch15 Mini Case.xls for actual calculations).

Number of Shares after a Repurchase, nPost

At wd = 20%:

nPost = nPrior(VopNew−DNew)/(VopNew−DOld)

nPost = 10($265.96 −$53.19)/($265.96 −$0)

nPost = 8

Optimal Capital Structure

wd = 30% gives:

Highest corporate value

Lowest WACC

Highest stock price per share

But wd = 40% is close. Optimal range is pretty flat.
