DCF Breakdown Input Financial Statements Forecast Revenue Forecast Free Cash Flows Calculate Discount Rate Evaluate Fair Value
Input Financial Statements • Input Income Statement and Balance Sheet for previous years • Cells in BLUE require input • Cells in BLACK are calculated • Make sure: • Final Net Income value is correct • Retained Earnings and Additional Paid-In Capital is correct • IT BALANCES!!
Forecast Revenue • We typically forecast for the next 5 years. This can change depending on the size of the company • One of the most if not THE MOST IMPORTANT ASSUMPTION!! • Based on: • Market – contracting/expanding? Overall Performance? • New Products? Other major events? • Historical growth? • Remember revenue will plateau towards a flat-line growth
Forecast Free Cash Flow • Project Free Cash Flow for the next 5 years • FCF = EBIT(1-Tax Rate) + Depreciation & Amortization - Change in Net Working Capital - Capital Expenditure
Calculate Discount Rate • Two Methods: Either based on Historical or Comparable Companies • Cost of Equity (Re) = Rf + Beta (Rm-Rf) • WACC = Re x E/V + Rd x (1 - corporate tax rate) x D/V • Get final unlevered rate
Evaluate Fair Value • Two Methods to calculate Terminal Value: Gordon Growth Model and Exit Multiple Model • Gordon Growth: Assume cash flow of last year stabilizes when projected to infinity • Exit Multiple: Choose a multiplier such as Net Income, Operating Profit, EBITDA, Free Cash Flow • Discount Terminal Value and FCF by WACC to get EV • Subtract Debt (and others) to get Fair Equity Value
Notes for our DCF Spreadsheet Stock Based Compensation inputted in the Financing Portion of the Cash Flow Statement (FS140) Tax rate = Provision for Income Taxes (FS53)/Income Before Taxes (FS52). Make sure this value isn’t far off Depreciation and Amortization values may differ between IS and BS. Cash flow is taken from IS(FS44 & FS45) Cash Plug is used to balance the BS for projected years. Cash Plug = Cash for previous years. Balance Check (FS100) should not be too large
Notes for our DCF Spreadsheet Additional Paid-In Capital and Retained Earnings are calculated for previous years (except first year). Consult Statement of Shareholder’s Equity for miscellaneous differences. (Or input manually) Long-term and Short-term Securities is inputted from actual Financial Statements (FS156-FS159), as is most accounts in Financing Activities (FS169-FS172) Compare calculated Cash Flow with actual. Balance Check should not be too large (FS181)
