Question
Dantzler Corporation is a fast-growing supplier of office products. Analysts project the following free cash flows (FCFs) during the next 3 years, after which FCF is expected to grow at a constant 8% rate. Dantzler's WACC is 11%. Year 0 1 2 3 ....... ....... ....... ....... ....... ....... ....... ....... ....... ....... ....... ....... ....... ....... ....... ...... FCF ($ millions) - $5 $25 $58 What is Dantzler's horizon, or continuing, value? What is the firm's value today? Suppose Dantzler has $149 million of debt and 40 million shares of stock outstanding. What is your estimate of the current price per share?
Explanation / Answer
D1 = -5
D2 = 25
D3 = 58
D4 = 58*1.08 = 62.64
According to dividend-discount model,
P0 = D1/(R-G)
P0 = Current stock price
D1 - Dividend at t =1
R - Required rate
G - Growth rate
Horizon value, P3 = D4/(R-g) = 62.64/(0.11-0.08) = 2088 million
b. Firm's value today is by discounting the future values
P0 = -5/(1+0.08)^1 + 25/(1+0.08)^2 + 58/(1+0.08)^3 + 2088/(1+0.08)^3 = 1720.37 milion.
c.
Total value of equity = Present value - debt = 1720.37 - 149 = 1571.37 million
Stock price = Total equity/shares outstanidng = 1571.37/40 = $39.28
