Study Notes
- Two general approaches to stock valuation: present value of cash flows and relative valuation techniques.
- Present value of cash flows includes DDM and FCFE/FCFF.
- DDM assumes constant dividend growth rate.
- Required rate of return (k) and growth rate (g) can be calculated based on asset pricing models and past dividend increases, respectively.
- FCFE determines free cash flow available to stockholders after payments to all capital suppliers and growth of firm.
- FCFF considers operating free cash flow of total firm.
- Discounted cash flow method (FCFF) calculates future cash available to investors and its present value based on WACC and growth rate.
- Equity value is present value of FCFF minus value of firm's debt obligations.
- FCFF = Cash flow from Operations - Capital Expenditure + Interest Expense (1-Tax Rate).
- FCFF is used to calculate equity value and share price.
