3 Main Metrics • Adjusted Civilian Unemployment Rate • Inflation • GDP
Lecture: Multiples Analysis • Objectives • What is a multiple? • How is a multiple calculated? • How is a multiple used? • How do you evaluate a multiple?
Accounting in 2 minutes Revenue Cost of the inputs associated with the product Literally the cost of the goods you sell Cost of input per unit x units sold -Cost of Goods Sold The final residual profit after all expenses and taxes have been taken out Also known as net income, net profit Costs not associated with producing the good Ex.) salaries paid to accountants or executives Gross Profit Price per unit x units sold -Operating Expenses Operating Profit -Taxes Earnings
Stock Price AAPL LNKD $467.41 per share $243.90 per share If we want to invest in cheap stocks (buy-low-sell-high), which would you invest in?
Stock price is arbitrary! A company wants to sell a bunch of stock onto a stock exchange to raise money (IPO) The company needs to raise $100 million The company gets to choose the stock price it wants to issue the stock at 1 million shares @ $100 each 10 million shares @ $10 each 100 million shares @ $1 each 1 billion shares @ $0.10 each Price is only used to gauge how much you make off a buy-and-sell trade. It is NOT a determinant of value
Back to multiples • We want to figure out if an investment is cheap
Relative Valuation Example Your exotic friend asks you to go buy this fruit you’ve never seen for him, but to not spend too much for him. The fruit is only sold by one vendor and costs $5 each, but you have no idea if that’s a good price. What do you do? You compare it to other things that are like it, namely, other fruit! You can refine your search further by comparing to other fruit that look and taste like it.
Relative Valuation Example You look around and find a vendor who has a similar looking, but slightly larger fruit. In order to standardize the price and eliminate the factor of size, we can calculate the price per pound You look around and find a vendor who has a similar looking, but larger fruit, selling for $10 each. $10 each $5 each
Relative Valuation • Much in the way price is arbitrary for fruit until you standardize it per unit of weight, stock price can be standardized per unit of earnings Price per share Investors tend to want to pay less for a dollar of earnings like paying less per pound of fruit Tells you how much you pay per dollar of earnings = = Earnings per share Total earnings / total shares
Price to Earnings Example AAPL LNKD $476.41 $243.90 $40.82 $.37 =676.6x =11.7x
Interpreting a P/E Multiple • Lower isn’t always better • For better, safer, growing companies, investors are willing to “pay a higher multiple” • Sometimes a higher multiple indicates expectation the company will “grow into it” • Cheap has two meanings • You can get a good price • But that also means you could be getting bad quality
Questioning a Multiple • Low Multiple + Quality Company = Good investment • If it’s so great, why is it cheap? Small Company- not regularly covered by Wall Street Analysts Exaggerated Bad News Future of the company is going to result in multiple expansion Quality is being incorrectly perceived
Multiples Used Price per share How much you pay per dollar of earnings Earnings per share Price per share How much you pay per dollar of resources of the business Book value per share Price per share Like P/E, but using cash flow (different from earnings) Cash Flow per share Enterprise Value Like P/E, but using better measurements of price and a proxy for cash flow/earnings. Most popular multiple EBITDA
Derivation of Stock Price P/E Industry = P/E Target Company • We know: • P/E Industry (average of P/E of similar companies) • Earnings Per Share company (10-K) • We want to solve for price 10.2x $3 Price P/E Industry Price 10.2x = 10.2x * $3 EPS $3 As long as the stock is trading below the industry multiple, its implied price will be higher than its current price.
