(Equity Valuation) - Chapter 9 – Q27, Q28a

27. We need to find the enterprise value of the company. We can calculate EBITDA as sales minus costs, so:

EBITDA = Sales – Costs

EBITDA = $43,000,000 – 14,000,000

EBITDA = $29,000,000

Solving the EV/EBITDA multiple for enterprise value, we find:

Enterprise value = $29,000,000(6.4)

Enterprise value = $185,600,000

The total value of equity is the enterprise value minus any outstanding debt, plus cash, so:

Equity value = Enterprise value – Debt + Cash

Equity value = $185,600,000 – 58,000,000 + 19,000,000

Equity value = $146,600,000

So, the price per share is:

Stock price = $146,600,000/1,850,000

Stock price = $79.24

Kennedy’s Remark for Q28 – Please kindly make the following adjustments regarding growth rates in the
question background:-

“Each of these values is expected to grow at 14 percent the following year, with the growth rate declining by 2
percent per year (insert “from Year 2 to Year 5”) until the growth rate reaches 5 percent (insert “Year 6”), where
it is expected to remain indefinitely”

If we do not make the adjustments in the question background, growth rate of Year 6 is arguably as 6% and
terminal year will be in Year 7 accordingly, but not in Year 6

28. a. To value the stock today, we first need to calculate the cash flows for the next 6 years. The sales, costs,
and net investment all grow by the same rate, namely 14 percent, 12 percent, 10 percent, and 8 percent,
respectively, for the following 4 years, then 5 percent indefinitely. So, the cash flows for each year will
be:

Year 1 Year 2 Year 3 Year 4 Year 5 Year 6

Sales $95,000,000 $108,300,000 $121,296,000 $133,425,600 $144,099,648 $151,304,630

Costs 52,000,000 59,280,000 66,393,600 73,032,960 78,875,597 82,819,377

EBT $43,000,000 $49,020,000 $54,902,400 $60,392,640 $65,224,051 $68,485,254

Taxes 9,030,000 10,294,200 11,529,504 12,682,454 13,697,051 14,381,903

Net income $33,970,000 $38,725,800 $43,372,896 $47,710,186 $51,527,000 $54,103,350

Investment 9,000,000 10,260,000 11,491,200 12,640,320 13,651,546 14,334,123

Cash flow $24,970,000 $28,465,800 $31,881,696 $35,069,866 $37,875,455 $39,769,228

To find the terminal value of the company in Year 6, we can discount the Year 7 cash flows as a growing
perpetuity, which will be:

Terminal value = $39,769,228(1 + .05)/(.13 – .05)

Terminal value = $521,971,112

So, the value of the company today is:

Company value today = $24,970,000/1.13 + $28,465,800/1.132 + $31,881,696/1.133

+ $35,069,866/1.134 + $37,875,455/1.135 + ($39,769,228 + 521,971,112)/1.136

Company value today = $378,366,434

Dividing the company value by the shares outstanding to get the share price, we get:

Share price = $378,366,434/6,500,000

Share price = $58.21
