401 - FINAL Flashcards

Q

when using comps…

A

want themto have the similar RISK and GROWTH rates
—but also don’t always consider those with larger multiples to be outliers…it depends if you are trying to estimate current value or if you are estimating the future value with anticipated growth in profitability or future priojects

multiples comes from the roots of DCF
PV/FCFF(1+g) = 1 / (WACC - g)
–DCF if do GGM in first year - simplified
left side = 5 / 1 – shows company is worth 5 times its FCFFs

something is worth what people are willing to pay for it - in ex.. with houses did P/sq. ft - look at what similar prices were recently sold at…look at their P/sq. ft and multiply average by sq. ft. of my house

Q

diff. multiples

A

EV/REV

EV/ FCF

EV / EBITDA

Price / EPS

Mkt equity / bk equity

P/E - something is worth what someone is willing to pay for it

Q

linear relationship for multiples

A

can finda slope - linear relationship with growth on x axis and P/E multiple on the Y

  • –growth explains the variation in the P/E ratios in the example
  • -can then estimate the P/E ratio GIVEN their growth rate - find line of best fit and with the regression can calc. the expected P/E ratio then use that ratio to multiply earnings and find the PRICE

in another ex. ROE explained the variation in the mkt/bk of each comp
–couldn’t just use industry ave. bc the ROE and growth rate variations can skew the averages and cause you to over/under estimate the valueation

graphs help us see the big picture - look at slope to estimate

NEED TO UNDERSTAND WHAT FACTOR IS DRIVING VARIATION IN MULTIPLES AND USE THAT IN YOUR CALC. AND VALUATION

Q

valuation football field

A

sensitivity analysis creates a range of values

have VALUE on Y axis then on X axis all the diff. valuation techniques

  • -DCF (FCFF), (P/E multiples), (EV/REV), (EV/EBITDA) DCF FCFE)
  • -all created diff. values that you plot using Y axis - then under diff. assumptions can create a rang of values
  • –assumptions could be growth rate and WACC

if football gives approx. worth of $100M - but 1B compete and acquisition valued at $125B - worth what willing to pay? yes! all models say $100M so why?

  • -goodwill, brand name, synergies - or growth rate too low? WACC too high?
  • -means you didn’t take these hidden values into account when making the model - can help you improve it and look into other assumptions and changes you can make to manipulate model
  • -shows that the point of the model is to know what the right questions are to ask - what are we missing? tells us where to go for our due diligence?
  • -assumptions are the POINT of the model

Q

FCFE - DCF

A

Equity value = EV + cash - debt

FCFE = FCFF - int.(1-t) + net borrowing
–the 1-t is where we take in to account the tax shield (bc don’t discount by WACC so have to take out the tax shield - bc in FCFF we overestimated taxable income by multipling by EBIT and not EBT ( bc tax shield on int. was already included in discount rate…but in this case it isn’t)

net borrowing = (LTD + STD)t - (LTD + STD)t-1

  • –if negative means paid down debt holders so less $ available to equity holders
  • -if positive means took out oan which is value o equity holders

equity value + cash + debt = enterprise value
–always add cash when switching btwn both sides!!!

Q

do ex post bad outcomes mean ex anti poor analysis?

A

NO always change neg. things can happen

  • -does not mean you were not careful in your study
  • -world is full of uncertainty - know what risks you are exposing yourself to

realizze everything is not concrete - don’t build models to get an exact right answer - about making assumptions and diggind deeper

Q

comps vs. DCF

A

Comps - good bc helps see what people are willing to pay for something that is similar to me - then can adjust

DCF - can do a lot of what if analysis -tests under diff. assumptions
–in liquidation of DCF - we capture the LAST YEAR Balance sheet value!!! not the diff.

Q

M&M

A

Thought experiement - value from assets, not how they’re sliced
—see what frictions exist so that how they are sliced changes value

–most commonly accepted theory is the trade-off theory

Q

diff. btwn comp. valuation and project valuation?

Q

pros/cons multiples

A

pros

  • -lots of info. from other valuations
  • -embodies mkt. consensus about discount rate and g
  • -free ride on mkts. info

weak

  • -assumes all comp. are alike in growth rates, cost of capital, and business composition - hard to find true comps
  • -hard time incorporating firm specific info. - expecially if operating changes going to be made
  • -acc. differences with earnings
  • -BV diff.
17
Q

valuing private comps?

A
  1. find comps recently sold?
  2. calc. price as a multiple to earnings or measure
  3. apply multiple to earnings of private comp. want to sell

when to use EBIT/EBITDA

18
Q

incremental CFs

A

sunk costs ignored
–opp. costs included

without project would the money be influenced?

use nominal rates
