| | | | | | | | Basic Valuation Methods: A Rough Guide |
| General Definitions |
| | Firm Value = Operating Assets + Non-Operating Assets = Equity + Debt |
| | Enterprise Value = Debt + Equity - Non-Operating Assets = Operating Assets |
| | Equity Value = Operating Assets + Non-Operating Assets - Debt = Firm Value - Debt =Enterprise Value + Non-Operating Assets - Debt |
| | | Always use market values in computing the values above |
| | Free cash flow = Cash flow available to meet the needs of lenders and the wants of investors |
| | Free cash flow for the firm = A variation on free cash flow, eliminating the non-operating items |
| | Free cash flow for equity = Cash flow available to meet the wants of investors in common equity: FCFE |
| | | The cash flows can be tied to the claimants in the same way the balance sheet is organized: CF for Assets = CF for Debt + CF for Equity | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | |
| Relative valuation (using multiples) |
| | P/E Ratio |
| | | Steps: |
| | | Find the "comparable" ratio of stock price to earnings per share for the subject company |
| | | Find earnings available to common shareholders for the subject company |
| | | Multiply P/E ratio times earnings available to common shareholders to find the implied equity value |
| | | Divide by shares outstanding to find the equity value per share (intrinsic value) |
| | P/S Ratio |
| | | Steps: |
| | | Find the "comparable" ratio of stock price to revenue per share for the subject company |
| | | Find revenue for the subject company |
| | | Multiply P/S ratio times revenue to find the implied equity value |
| | | Divide by shares outstanding to find the equity value per share (intrinsic value) |
| | EV/EBITDA Ratio |
| | | Steps: |
| | | Find the "comparable" ratio of enterprise value to EBITDA for the subject company |
| | | Find EBITDA for the subject company |
| | | Multiply EV/EBITDA ratio times EBITDA to find the value of operations (i.e. Enterprise Value) |
| | | Add the market value of any non-operating assets |
| | | Subtract the market value of debt |
| | | Divide by shares outstanding to find the equity value per share (intrinsic value) |
| Discounted cash flow valuation |
| | Equity CF Method (FCFE//Ke) |
| | | Determine Free Cash Flows for Equity (FCFE) |
| | | Model the expected future cash flows for the explicit forecast period (e.g. 5 years) |
| | | Compute the terminal value of the cash flows |
| | | Discount the cash flows and terminal value using the cost of equity (Ke) to find the equity value of operations |
| | | Add the market value of any non-operating assets which were excluded from CF computations |
| | | Divide by shares outstanding to find the equity value per share (intrinsic value) |
| | Corporate Valuation Method (FCFF//WACC) |
| | | Determine Free Cash Flows for the firm (FCFF) |
| | | Model the expected future cash flows for the explicit forecast period (e.g. 5 years) |
| | | Compute the terminal value of the cash flows |
| | | Discount the cash flows and terminal value using the weighted average cost of capital (WACC) to find the Value of Operations (i.e. Enterprise Value) |
| | | Add the market value of any non-operating assets which were excluded from CF computations |
| | | Subtract the market value of debt |
| | | Divide by shares outstanding to find the equity value per share (intrinsic value) |
| | Adjusted Present Value (APV) Method (FCFF//Ku + TS//Ku) |
| | | Steps: |
| | | Determine Free Cash Flows for the firm (FCFF) |
| | | Model the expected future cash flows for the explicit forecast period (e.g. 5 years) |
| | | Compute the terminal value of the cash flows |
| | | Discount the cash flows and terminal value using the unlevered cost of capital (Ku) to determine the Unlevered Value of Operations |
| | | Determine the interest tax savings for the firm (Interest expense * tax rate) |
| | | Model the expected future interest tax savings for the explicit forecast period (e.g. 5 years) |
| | | Compute the terminal value of the interest tax savings |
| | | Discount the interest tax savings and terminal value using the unlevered cost of capital (Ku) to determine the value of the tax shield |
| | | Add the Unlevered Value of Operations to the Value of the Tax Shield to find Value of Operations (i.e. Enterprise Value) |
| | | Add the market value of any non-operating assets which were excluded from CF computations |
| | | Subtract the market value of debt |
| | | Divide by shares outstanding to find the equity value per share (intrinsic value) |
