Future Value:

  • FV = x (1+ K/M) ^ mn

  • Where:

    • X= principle amount

    • K= Interest Rate

    • M= number of times interest compounds

    • N= Years

  • So:

    • Investing $100 with semi annual interest at 8% for 1 year =

    • 100(1+ .08/2) ^2*1

    • =$104

  • Present Value:

    • Lump Sum:

      • PV= Xn / (1+k/m) ^ mn

      • Where:

        • X=Principle

        • K=discount rate

        • M= number of times compounding

        • N=Years

      • So:

        • 100$ received in 2 years with 8% discount rate compounded semi-annually

        • 100/ (1+.08/2) ^ 2*2

        • =85.48

    • Annuity:

      • Paid at the end of each period

      • For Simple Interest:

        • Xn/ (1+k)^n

      • For Compounded Interest:

        • 1. Calculate Effective Annual Interest Rate (EAIR)

          • (1+k/m)^m – 1

        • 2. Use PV formula, plugging EAIR into k

    • Annuity Due:

      • Paid at the beginning of each period

      • So:

        • [Xn/ (1+k)^n ] * [1+k]

  • Risk and Probability:

    • 1. Generally, risk is a function of the probability of something occurring

      • Risk: Quantifiable thing we know may occur

      • Uncertainty: thing we do not know of

    • 2. A Portfolio or Expected return on a stock, then can be calculated by:

      • The Risk weighted average return of a stock/portfolio =

        • Sum of Weight of (Chance) of Economic Outcome or Return x Return

    • 3. Continuous Probability Distribution:

      • Assign a probability of every possible state of economy and rate of return for stock in each economy

      • Taking weighted average return of each gives us a distribution of returns

        • Standard Deviation:

          • Technically a probability weighted average deviation of expected return

          • Way of quantifying expected deviation from the expected return

          • Greater Standard Deviation= Greater Risk

  • C. Quantitative Methods of Valuation:

    • Generally:

      • There are two types of valuation:

        • Fundamental: Evaluating the particular aspects of a company, without regard to the market

        • Market Value: Value comes from the market, and the ‘castles in the air’ theory

      • See Smith Drug Stores I

    • 1. Balance Sheet Valuation:

      • Book Value:

        • BV per Share = BV/# of shares

        • BV= TA-TL

        • Flaws:

          • Restricted by the accounting conventions

          • Historic Cost not reflective of current values

            • Due to focus on Balance Sheet, which is ‘snap shot’

            • Does not look at earnings or cash flow

              • Does not include intangible value market attributes to it

          • Overall Value is skewed

            • focuses on the liquidation value instead of Going Concern (Income Generation and earnings)

      • Adjusted Book Value:

        • Attempts to avoid focus on historic cost by increasing certain assets to reflect market value

        • Process:

          • 1. Assets on Balance Sheet restated to show current market value

          • 2.Then BV=TA-TL

        • Flaws:

      • Net Asset Value:

        • Generally:

          • Tries to avoid reliance on balance sheet and historic cost, by valuing as a going concern

          • Considers the costs associated with establishing name recognition, training, developing products, creating brands, customer base, earnings potential Reflecting “Going Concern”

        • Goodwill:

          • Reflects the value of a target company, and values as a going concern

          • Some intangible value above and beyond the assets

          • Typically arises in a corporate acquisition

          • Process:

            • If an acquirer purchases a company at greater then Book Value, there must be something else they are acquiring, above the asset value

              • that value is considered the going concern value of the future earnings

            • Donahue v. Draper (infra):

              • Goodwill = value above net tangible assets

              • 1. X= Earnings x Multple (representing goodwill value)

              • 2. Goodwill= X-Net Tangible Assets

              • 3. Good will= amount greater then net assets (BV)

        • Market to Book Ratio:

          • Use:

            • An evaluation of the price of a share, and how much greater that share is above the book value

            • Can be used to give measure of how investors regard the subject company compared to others

          • Process:

            • 1. Calculate Book Value

            • 2. Calculate market Value

            • 3. Market Value per share / Book Value per share

            • Comparison of Private to Public Corporation:

              • Could take the M/B ratio of public company to determine comparison

              • For instance, if industry average M/B = 5 and your BV=2…2x5= 10/share mv

              • So, can be used for valuation purposes

          • Meaning:

            • > 1: shows a measure of market value that is greater then book value…and valuation of a going concern and goodwill

            • May show value above book value, and thus more accurately depict going concern value

      • Overall Flaws with Balance Sheet Valuation:

        • Accounting Conventions reliance on historical cost

        • Even with NAV, and Adjusted book value, unless we are valuing a company for its liquidation value, we don’t want to know what the assets cost, or what the company is worth if sold now…

        • We want to know what the corporation, going concern, can do for us in the future

    • 2. Income Statement Valuation:

      • 1. Capitalized Earnings Method:

        • Process:

          • 1. Come up with earnings

          • 2. Choose capitalization rate

        • Earnings Estimate:

          • Earnings may mean the bottom line

          • Flaw:

            • Accounting Conventions

              • Earnings have, subtracted out of them, both cash and non cash items

              • Non-Cash items= Depreciation and deferred taxes

              • Changes in accounting methods may significantly alter earnings

            • Adjustments in a Close Corporation:

              • Expenses of a corporation, such as executive compensation, can be too high in some close-corporations…If they are too high, and method of self-dealing is occurring these could be thought of as lost earnings for the company and added back in to determine earnings value

          • Focus on Past, Present Future:

            • Past gives indication of, perhaps, what may occur in future

            • But future is what will, if occurs, bring us earnings in the future

            • So, forecast earnings into the future

          • Adjustments to Earnings:

            • Adjusted Earnings:

              • In order to avoid accounting conventions that deal with non-cash items, Restate:

                • Add back all non-cash expenses: Deferred Taxes and Depreciation

            • Normalized Earnings:

              • Process by which we take the average of earnings over the past x number of years

                • Avoids extraordinary, and abnormal earnings

        • Capitalization Rate (See Discount Rate, infra):

          • Evaluates risks of company, and industry

          • Used in order to discount the future value of earnings at a fixed percent to the present value

          • Premium, or interest rate you would expect to earn on that risky asset if you acquired it now

          • Methods to Develop Capitalization Rate:

            • 1. Create your own

              • based on risk profile, comparable companies, industry, specific company issues,

                • Make adjustments depending on future risks, or indicators in the past of potential issues

              • Low Risk: ~12.5%

              • Moderate Risk: ~ 15-25%

              • High Risk: >~ 25%

              • Adjusted per your company specific issues

            • 2. Reciprocal of P/E Ratio:

              • 1/ P/E = Capitalization Rate

              • P/E is a multiple of the price at which a share of stock is sold for, relative to the earnings that share is worth

              • Idea that current Price reflects risks, and issues with the future earnings

              • Higher reflects market belief that positive events are to come

                • Note:

                  • If a close corporation is in question, then the P/E of comparable companies can be used to value a share

                  • Comparable Companies: Size, industry, growth rate, history…

                  • Issue:

                  • Assure comparable companies when using P/E to determine capitalization rate

                  • Finding a like company is key to accurately portraying a share price

              • Issues:

                • Introduces market valuation into a fundamental approach

                • However, argument should be that we should introduce market valuation into it, at least some, to determine a fair market value

            • 3. CAPM

              • See infra

            • 4. WACC

            • 5. Gordon Model: K= (D1/V) + G

        • Formulas:

          • 1. Value of Share= E/R

          • 2. Value of Share = Earnings x P/E

      • Flaws with Income Statement Valuation:

        • 1. Also limited to accounting conventions

          • Non-cash items are excluded

        • 2. Prediction of Future earnings and capitalization rate make it subject to subjective interpretation

        • 3. Fails to address what will occur with the cash flows created from earnings

          • Dividends and/ or Retained Earnings

        • 4. Comparison Issues are also subjective

    • 3. Cash Flow Methods of Valuation:

      • General:

        • As income statement and balance sheet valuation methods fail to take into account the present value of future dividend streams, what shareholder may be entitled to, cash-flow valuation fills this void

        • A stock’s worth, and value derive from the expected stream of future dividends—paid in cash

        • Premise:

          • DDM assumes you will not sell, and are not trading day-to-day, but rather holding for the long term

          • Because earnings are made up of what can be plowed back and paid out, there is no contradiction

            • Earnings, thus, are not counted specifically—would double count—as you are including the portion of the earnings a shareholder is entitled to…i.e., the pay out of the earnings in the form of dividends…what part of earnings you receive




        • 1. The Dividend Discount Model (Gordon Model):

          • Premise:

            • That a share of common stock is equal to the expected flow of dividends it produces, discounted to present value

          • Process:

            • Step 1: Forecast Future Dividends

              • Remember:

                • Payable at Board of Directors’ discretion

                • Legal Capital Rules apply

                • Growth, financial position and future prospects

                • So predicting future dividends are not easy

            • Step 2: Choose a Discount Rate

              • Will incorporate, as aforementioned, a time value of money and adjusted risk for a particular corporation

              • Can Use:

                • 1. CAPM

                • 2. WACC

                • 3. Capitalization Rate

                • 4. Create your own

                • 5. Use DDM to do so

                • adjusted for particular company in question

            • Step 3: Apply No-Growth, Constant Growth, or Variable Growth Rate, per your model

          • The Model of Equation:

            • No-Growth Stock:

              • Applicable if there is no expected growth in the dividend in the future


    D

              • V = K

              • Where:

                • D= Dividend

                • K=Discount Rate

                  • Note:

                    • Discount Rate can be solved for

                    • K= D/V

            • Constant Growth Stock:

              • Applicable where a dividend of a company is predicted to grow at a constant rate in future




              • V = D1 / (k-g)

              • Where:

              • The Discount Rate:

                • Again, there are methods that are different which can be employed to create the discount rate:

                  • The discount rate is a premium, or interest rate you would expect to earn on that risky asset if you acquired it now

                  • So, we discount the future value of a share, or dividend by that ‘interest’ rate, or discount rate

                  • A modified interest rate for that particular stock

                • 1. Create it

                • 2. CAPM

                • 3. Reciprocal of P/E

                • 4. Gordon Model to Calculate K

                  • K= (D1/v) + g

                    • Finding Value of the stock using comparable companies at future point in time

                • 5. WACC

              • The Growth Rate:

                • A dividend is attributable to a board of directors’ decision of what to do with Income

                • Income can be

                  • 1. Pay Out Ratio

                    • Amount paid out, in % of earnings, to shareholders in form of dividend

                    • Payout Ratio= Dividends /Earnings

                  • 2. Plow Back Ratio

                    • Plowing back means the amount of net income that the board decides to reinvest in the company

                    • Ends up in Retained Earnings

                    • 1-Payout Ratio

                • Method 1 of determining Growth Rate:

                  • 1. Take the Payout Ratio

                  • 2. Take Return on Equity (ROE)

                    • ROE= EPS/BVS

                  • Growth then, means that the company will pay out a portion of its return on the equity in the company to shareholders, while the remaining portion is plowed back into the company

                  • Makes Sense BV=TA-TL, which = Shareholder’s Equity in Balance Sheet equation (SE=TA-TL), so return on that is return on shareholder’s equity

                • Method 2:

                  • Calculate average change in dividend over last x number of years

            • Non-Constant Growth/Terminal Value Model/Horizon Model:

              • Applicable when the growth rate of the future dividends is inconsistent

              • General:

                • When calculating DDM, there is inherently value left on the table from failing to calculate the horizon value of all future dividends

                • This formula establishes the dividends through a definite period of time, and after that point, utilizes a horizon value to predict the value of all future dividends

              • Process:

                • Step 1:

                  • Calculate the present value of the expected future dividends where there is inconsistent growth/non-constant growth

                • Step 2:

                  • Use Constant Growth rate DDM formula for time period you believe constant growth will begin at

                  • Take Present Value of that

                • Step 3:

                  • Add the two together

              • Formula:

                • 1. Calculate the present value of the projected dividends

                  • whether constant or non-constant growth

                • 2. Terminal/Horizon Value calculation

                  • [1 / (1+k) ^ n ] x [Dn / (k-g)]

                  • Where:

                    • n=the last year for which dividends have been discounted

                    • This calculation takes the present value of the terminal value of stock

                • Or

                  • Terminal Value can be calculated by:

                    • Vn / (1+k) ^n

                    • Which gives you the present value of future terminal value

                    • Where:

                    • n=

                    • Calculate Value at year n, by using comparable mature companies P/E and multiplying by your projected earnings in that year

                    • Flaws: this method succumbs to issues of Income statement valuation, comparability, and prediction

                • 3.

                  • Add the present value of your projected dividends to your selected terminal value

          • Flaws of DDM:

            • 1. May miss out on future receipt of dividends throughout horizon time

            • 2. Understates value then, as terminal value is not wholly accurate

            • 3. May be subject to analyst’s subjective interpretations and judgment

            • 4. Inapplicable to companies who do not pay dividends

        • 2. Discounted Cash Flow Analysis

          • Applicable for many valuation forms, especially if company does not pay dividends

          • Process:

            • 1. Forecast company’s net cash flows

              • each year into future and growth

            • 2. Estimate a terminal value of the company at the end of your holding period

              • Use same calculation for horizon value as DDM

                • Terminal Cash Flow / (1+k)^n

            • 3. Discount at an appropriate discount rate the present value of each

            • 4. Add the discounted cash flows and discounted terminal value

          • Flaws:

            • Forecasting of future cash flows is subjective

            • Choice of discount rate is subjective

            • Estimating the terminal value is not wholly accurate

      • 4. Capital Budgeting and Managerial Finance:

        • General:

          • The same concepts, above, are used by mangers daily to determine the value of projects and the return and discount rates they will apply to these projects to determine their value to the company

          • Two common methods: IRR and NPV

        • Net Present Value:

          • Simply forecast the future values of a project

          • Discount all back to present value utilizing a discount rate

            • Weighted Average Cost of Capital:

              • [Weight x ROE] + [Weight x Debt]

          • Effect:

            • If positive  the company should always accept the project as it adds value

            • If negative  company should decline as it decreases value

        • Internal Rate of Return:

          • The rate of a return a series of projected future cash flows will produce

      • 5. Market Based Valuation: Modern Portfolio Theory, Efficient Frontier, and CAPM:

        • Market Based Valuation:

          • While the above formulas largely deal with the fundamental quantitative data a particular going concern exhibits, and the specific corporation’s attributes

            • Note:

              • Some market information (Such as P/E) does creep into fundamental valuation

          • Market based valuation, in contrast focuses on the market

            • The market assigns a value to the corporation based on all things that effect it

        • Modern Portfolio Theory:

          • Risk Profile:

            • Generally speaking, the higher the risk an investment bears, the higher return an investor will demand

              • Risk Averse: Will not accept increased risk without increased return

              • Risk Neutral: Solely focuses on the return, and does not care about risk needed

              • Risk Seeking: actually accepts lower return for increased risk…small chance of big success

          • Diversification:

            • The idea of creating a portfolio of stocks, which include different returns and probabilities in different states of the economy—idea of combining securities to reduce risks of 1 security

              • If you buy two securities, and both react exactly opposite, you’ve diversified

            • 3 Beliefs:

              • 1. Expected return of a security is the weighted average of all possible returns

              • 2. Expected return of portfolio is weighted sum of return on individual securities

              • 3. The risk is not necessarily the weighted sum of all risks

          • Systemic and Non-Systemic Risk:

            • Out of Modern Portfolio theory, and diversification, we see that there are two types of risk we need to worry about  Specific Risk to that company and risk of the system

            • Firm-Specific Risk:

              • Diversifiable, unique, specific, unsystematic risk

              • Because we see that diversification can be done between particular stocks, the particular risk can be, theoretically, negated

              • So diversification can allow an investor to reduce unsystematic risks and only focus on Systematic risks

            • Non-Firm Specific Risk:

              • Systematic Risk  ßeta

              • The risk that should be focused on, then, to maximize return

              • The risk you seek return for

              • Beta—ß:

                • A statistical measure of how a particular stock reacts to market risk

                • Correlation of stocks movement to markets movement

                  • ß of 1: There is a 1:1 return with the market

                  • ß of >1: Return will be Greater then market (More Risk)

                  • ß of <1: Return will be less then market (Less Risk)

          • Efficient Frontier:

            • A graphical showing of possible portfolios with different risk profiles

            • Maximizes expected return for risk

        • The Capital Asset Pricing Model (CAPM)

          • Because we should only be compensated for systematic risk, or a companies sensitivity to the system, the value of a share should show this

          • See Smith Drug Stores V

            • Components:

              • ß (Beta): the measure of relationship between risk of individual security and risk of system or market

                • Note:

                  • A higher ß means a higher level of risk

                  • Correlation is higher to market changes, so they are more sensitive and varying

              • a (Alpha): A measure of the accuracy of CAPM

                • =Stock’s Actual Return – CAPM Expected Return

                  • > 0: Shows greater then what was expected

                  • < 0: Shows less then expected

              • RF (Risk Free Rate):

                • The return one could get risk-free, through for instance, T-bills

              • RM (Return on Market):

                • The standard return of the market
