Free Cash Flow Valuation

Dozier 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 7% rate. Dozier's weighted average cost of capital is WACC = 16%.

	Year
	1	2	3
Free cash flow ($ millions)	-$20	$30	$40

1. What is Dozier's horizon value? (Hint: Find the value of all free cash flows beyond Year 3 discounted back to Year 3.) Enter your answers in millions. For example, an answer of $10,550,000 should be entered as 10.55. Round your answer to two decimal places.

Answer 1

a)
Horizon value = (FCF3 * (1+g)) / (Ke - g)
= ($40 * (1 + 7%)) / (0.16 - 0.07)
= $42.8 / 0.09
= $475.56 million

b)
Current value of operations for Dozier = (FCF1 / (1+r)) + (FCF2 / (1+r)^2) + ((FCF3 + Horizon value) / (1+r)^3)

= (-$20 / 1.16) + ($30 / 1.16^2) + (($40 + $475.56) / 1.16^3

= -$17.2414 + $22.2949 + $330.2946

= $335.35 million

Current value of operations for Dozier = $335.35 million

c)
Intrinsic price per share =(current value of operation + marketable securities - debt) / Number of shares
= ($335.35 + $10 - $100) / 10
= $245.35 / 10
= $24.53

Intrinsic price per share = $24.53
