Part 4)

If the growth rate of FCFF were 7 percent beginning in year 6 rather than 5 percent, how much would that add to the value that Bradshaw should be willing to pay for Flores Media?

A)   $24.44.

B)   $12.69.

C)   $9.82.

D)   $110.00.

 

The correct answer was C) $9.82.

We can calculate the terminal value of the firm in Year 5 using the data from the table we created before:
Terminal Value in Year 5 = FCFF in Year 6 / (r - g)

Terminal Value in Year 5 = $7.70 / (0.14 – 0.05)

Terminal Value in Year 5 = $7.70 / 0.09

Terminal Value in Year 5 = $7.70 / 0.09

Terminal Value in Year 5 = $85.56

If we change the growth rate to 7%, we get:

Terminal Value in Year 5 = $7.70 / (0.14 – 0.07)

Terminal Value in Year 5 = $7.70 / 0.07

Terminal Value in Year 5 = $110.00

Note that we discount the terminal value by the stable growth WACC of 14%, not the rapid growth WACC of 20%.

An increase in the growth rate of the stable growth phase would add an increment of ($110.00 − $85.56) = $24.44 per share. Discounting that back to the present at the rapid growth WACC of 20% gives us ($24.44 / (1.20)⁵) = 9.82 per share additional value to the firm.

Part 5)

Regarding the statements made by Bradshaw and Jimenez about the per share value of Flores Media:

A)   Bradshaw’s statement is correct; Jimenez’s statement is correct.

B)   Bradshaw’s statement is incorrect; Jimenez’s statement is correct.

C)   Bradshaw’s statement is correct; Jimenez’s statement is incorrect.

D)   Bradshaw’s statement is incorrect; Jimenez’s statement is incorrect.

 

The correct answer was B) Bradshaw’s statement is incorrect; Jimenez’s statement is correct.

We first calculate firm value:

Firm value = $2.42 + $2.66 + $2.82 + $2.87 + $37.19 = $47.96 per share. Jimenez’s statement is correct.

Equity value = Firm value − debt value

Equity value = $47.96 − $25.00

Equity value = $22.96 per share

A fair price for Jimenez's stake would be $22.96 × 5.2 million shares = $119,392,000. Bradshaw’s statement is incorrect.

Note that we do not calculate the value of Jimenez’s interest in Flores Media using FCFE because Jimenez has a controlling interest in the firm.

Part 6)

If Jimenez and Bradshaw agreed to calculate the terminal value of the Flores Media using the median industry forward P/E of 12 instead of a discounted cash flow method, what impact would that have on the price that Bradshaw should be willing to pay for Flores?

A)   A decrease of $22.08.

B)   An increase of $7.42.

C)   An increase of $22.08.

D)   An increase of $8.87.

 

The correct answer was D) An increase of $8.87.

Since the P/E is a forward P/E, we apply it to EPS in Year 6 to get a terminal value of (12 × $8.97) = $107.64 per share. That’s ($107.64 − $85.56) = $22.08 more than the terminal value using a discounted cash flow analysis. Discounting that back to the present we get ($22.08 / (1.20)⁵) = $8.87 more per share.

Part 1)

Bradshaw decides to calculate free cash flow to the firm (FCFF) startng with net income. Which statement regarding how to derive free cash flow to the firm (FCFF) from net income is least accurate?

A)   Subtract fixed capital investment.

B)   Add amortization of intangibles.

C)   Add working capital investment.

D)   Add interest expense adjusted for taxes.

 

The correct answer was C) Add working capital investment.

The formula for calculating cash flow to the firm (FCFF) from net income is:
FCFF = Net income + Noncash charges + [Interest expense × (1 – tax rate)] – fixed capital investment – working capital investment
We need to make four crucial adjustments to net income in order to get FCFF:

1. Add noncash charges. Noncash charges are added back to net income to arrive at FCFF because they represent expenses that reduced reported net income but didn’t actually result in an outflow of cash. Amortization of intangibles is considered part of the noncash charges.

2. Subtract fixed capital investment. Investment in fixed capital does not appear on the income statement, so it must be subtracted from net income. It is a net amount: investments in long-term assets minus the proceeds from the sale of long-term assets.

3. Subtract working capital investment: The investment in net working capital is equal to the change in working capital, excluding cash, cash equivalents, notes payable, and the current portion of long-term debt. Note that there would be a + sign in front of a reduction in working capital; we would add it back because it represents a cash inflow.

4. Add interest expense adjusted for taxes: Interest was expensed on the income statement, but it represents a financing cash flow to bondholders that is available to the firm before it makes any payments to its capital suppliers.

Part 2)

What is free cash flow to equity (FCFE) per share in Year 5?

A)   $6.99.

B)   $6.11.

C)   $4.35.

D)   $8.75.

 

The correct answer was C) $4.35.

We start by creating the table below:
We know that sales growth is going to slow linearly from 30% in Year 1 to 5% in Year 6. We also know that next year’s net income is expected to be $3.60 given a 20% net profit margin, so sales per share must be $18.00. Using $18.00 per share as the Year 1 value we can forecast sales per share for Years 2 - 6. We also know that the net profit margin of 20% in Year 1 is increasing in equal increments until it hits 25% in Year 6. With that information, we can calculate net profit margin and net income for Year 2 - 6.

We know that the firm has ($250 million / 10 million shares = ) $25 per share of debt outstanding, which pays 12% and trades at par. Thus, interest expense must be ($25 x 0.12 = ) $3.00 per share pre-tax and ($3.00 x (1 – 0.40) = ) $1.80 after-tax, growing at 10% per year until Year 6, when it hits 5%. We also know that Net FCInv in Year 1 is always $1.00 per share until Year 6, when it begins growing in line with revenue. Note that you can save a step in the calculation of FCFF if you recognize that you don’t need to know depreciation if you know net FCInv. Finally, we know that WCInv is $1.50 per share, growing at the same rate as revenue.

Having calculated this, we can calculate:

FCFF = Net Income + After-tax interest – net FCInv – WCInv
FCFE = Net Income – net FCInv - WCInv

Note that you could save yourself some time on the exam by not calculating after-tax interest expense and FCFF as part of the response to this question and not going out to Year 6. We did it here for comprehensiveness in creating the table.
