Analysis Parameters
New TickerAnalysis Details
Growth Rate Projection
An exponential growth model was fit to the past cash flow data, giving more weight to more recent years. This model determined a growth rate estimate of -11.9%.
Weighted Average Cost of Capital (WACC)
The calculated WACC is 4.7%. This value is used as the default discount rate.
Value of Future Flows
Assuming a growth rate of -11.9%, the cash flows for the next 5 years are projected.
The present value of each year's flow is adjusted to present value using the discount rate.
| Year | Future flow (million) | Present value (million) |
|---|---|---|
| 2023 | 84.2 | 80.4 |
| 2024 | 74.2 | 67.7 |
| 2025 | 65.4 | 57.0 |
| 2026 | 57.6 | 48.0 |
| 2027 | 50.8 | 40.4 |
Terminal Value
Assuming the company was sold after the projection period at an exit multiple of 30, the terminal value of the company would be 1520 million. This corresponds to a present value of 1160 million.
Intrinsic Value Per Share
The total present value of the projected cash flows is 294 million. Adding in the terminal value gives a total present value of 1450 million.
There are presently 66.2 million outstanding shares, so the intrinsic value per share is 21.93.
