Study Notes
Forecasting Financial Statements
-
Forecasting approaches include detailed forecasts of operating and non-operating accounts, utilizing operating accounts significance and a parsimonious method. Parsimonious methods use NOPAT and NOA for less effort but may not be as accurate.
-
Adjusting financial statements before forecasting involves adjusting NOPAT and NOA for forecasting. Analysts remove non-recurring operating expenses and other one-time items like restructuring expenses, asset impairment, gains/losses on asset disposal and unusual tax expenses or benefits. Also consider inventory adjustments (e.g., LIFO to FIFO) and pro forma consolidations or equity method investments.
-
Two-stage approach (forecasting revenue growth) involves forecasting in near-term and long-term periods. Near-term periods typically range from 3-5 years. Using past revenue growth, industry trends and a company's competitive position to predict revenue growth in each period.
-
Finding growth rate example includes net sales growth taken from the income statement, used for growth forecasting purposes, ignoring any acquisitions or currency exchange effect.
-
Organic growth rate reflects the growth from existing core business, ignoring acquisitions or currency exchange effects.
-
Forecasting growth rates for future years considers historical trends, industry and macro-economic environment factors.
-
Parsimonious approach to forecasting uses sales, NOPM(Net Operating Profit Margin), NOA(Net Operating Asset) to forecast sales, NOPAT and NOA.
Cost of Capital and Valuation Basics
-
Adjustments for forecasting involve removing non-recurring items, consolidating equity-method investments and capitalizing R&D expenses.
-
Forecasting revenue involves finding growth rate for next year and forecasting growth for later years.
-
Parsimonious Method assumes NOPM and NOA remain unchanged.
Cost of Capital and Valuation Basics
- Essential concepts include forecasting revenue, adjustments to financial statements, cost of capital, and valuation models (DDM and ROPI).
- Calculates WACC using market values of equity and debt, cost of equity and cost of debt
- Calculation of cost of debt and cost of equity based on market risks and borrowing rates, using the capital asset pricing model.
- Discusses various valuation models including discounted cash flow and residual operating income.
Discounted Cash Flow (DCF) Valuation Model
- The WACC is used as the discount rate in DCF models to calculate present values of free cash flows for the horizon and terminal periods.
- FCFF (free cash flow to the firm) is calculated as NOPAT (net operating profit after tax) minus ΔNOA.
- A five-step process is used in DCF valuation involving forecasting FCFF for the horizon and terminal period, summing the present values of both periods to adjust net non-operating obligations and dividing the equity value with outstanding shares.
- Sensitivity analysis is utilized to determine the implications of different assumptions and growth rates.
Residual Operating Income (ROPI) Valuation Model
- ROPI is calculated as NOPAT minus beginning NOA multiplied by WACC.
- Firm value is determined by adding the current NOA to the present value of expected ROPI.
- Firm equity value is found by subtracting NNO and non-controlling interests from the firm value.
- Intrinsic value per share is calculated by dividing firm equity value by outstanding shares.
Market-Based Valuation
- Using market multiples (e.g., price-to-earnings, price-to-book) involves comparing a company's value to similar companies or its historical values.
- Market multiples provide quick valuations and screening tools.
- Multiples are suitable for estimating the overall value of a target company, using multiples from similar public companies to get a comparable baseline
- Sensitivity analysis checks how significantly intrinsic value changes when using different assumptions when forecasting.
- Reverse engineering with Goal Seek is used to determine the terminal growth rate implied by the market price.
