Discounted cash flow valuation: Using the Discounted Cash Flow method and inform

ID: 2796084 • Letter: D

Question

Discounted cash flow valuation: Using the Discounted Cash Flow method and information from Exhibit 10, estimate the value of FVC. First, calculate the free cash flow to FVC each year from 2008 to 2012. Second, discount the cash flows to 2007. Assume: discount rate r = 8%, growth rate for the steady period starting 2012 g = 4.5%. Clearly state your assumptions if any

Synergy valuation: FVC expects to realize from the transaction pre-tax cost synergies of $2 million in the first year and $4 million each year afterwards. What is the value of FVC using the Discounted Cash Flow method in question 5 taking into account the cost synergies realized from the transaction?

Explanation / Answer

With the given schedule, we can find Free Cash Flow as Net Income + Depreciation + Incremental PPE Outflow + Incremental Working Capital Outflow. The same is shown below:

Assuming the above data is in '000, then pre-tax cost synergies equal 2,000 in first year and 4,000 in subsequent years. Also, as can be observed by dividing tax from taxable income, tax rate is 40% appx.

Therefore, After-Tax synergies need to be reduced by tax out flow resulting in tax synergy of 1200 in first year and 2400 in next years. The resultant cash flows will then be:

Net Income $5,575 $7,447 $8,034 $8,892 $9,906 $11,076 Depreciation $1,508 $1,660 $1,828 $2,012 $2,212 $2,432 Incremnetal PPE ($18,268) ($3,788) ($2,368) ($2,664) ($2,961) ($3,257) Incremental Working Capital ($16,840) ($3,491) ($2,184) ($2,456) ($2,729) ($3,002) Free Cash Flow ($28,025) $1,828 $5,310 $5,784 $6,428 $7,249 Discounted Value ($28,025) 1692.59 4552.47 4591.53 4724.77 4933.55
