VALUATION OF COMPANIES
1. IDX Technologies is a privately held developer of advanced security
systems based in Chicago. As part of your business development
strategy, in late 2008 you initiate discussions with IDX’s founder about
the possibility of acquiring the business at the end of 2008. Estimate
the value of IDX per share using a discounted FCF approach(Corporate
Value Model) and the following data:
■ Debt: $30 million
■ Excess cash: $110 million
■ Shares outstanding: 50 million
■ Expected FCF in 2009: $45 million
■ Expected FCF in 2010: $50 million
■ Future FCF growth rate beyond 2010: 5%
■ Weighted-average cost of capital: 9.4%
*Refer to slide 27 -29
From 2010 on, we expect FCF to grow at a 5% rate. Thus, using the growing perpetuity
formula, we can estimate IDX’s Terminal Enterprise Value in 2009(TV) = $50/(9.4% –
5%) =$1136. → PV= D1/r-g ,r=9.4%/0.094 ,g=5%/0.05
Adding the 2009 cash flow and discounting, we have
Enterprise Value in 2008 = ($45 + $1136)/(1.094) = $1080.
Adjusting for Cash and Debt (net debt), we estimate an
Equity value of the firm = MV of firm + cash – MV debt =$1080m + 110m – 30m =
$1160m.
Dividing by number of shares: Stock share = $1160m/50m = $23.20.
2. Anle Corporation has a current price of $20, is expected to pay a dividend of $1 in one year,
and its expected price right after paying that dividend is $22.
Solution:
Dividend Yield = 0.88 / 22.00 = 4%
Capital gain rate = (23.54 – 22.00) / 22.00 = 7%
Total equity cost of capital = 4% + 7% = 11%
4. You notice that PepsiCo has a stock price of $52.66 and EPS of $3.20. Its
competitor, the Coca-Cola Company, has EPS of $2.49. Estimate the value of
a share of Coca-Cola stock using only this data.
