- Assume a 5-year growth rate in FCF of 10% per year, then no growth or 0% growth in FCF per year forever:
Discounted Cash Flow Valuation
The firm's future cash flows, discounted at a WACC of 11.62%, give a present value for the entire firm (Debt + Equity) of $53065 million. If the firm's fair value of debt is estimated at $5684 million, then the fair value of the firm's equity could be $47381 million. $47381 million / 695 million outstanding shares is approximately $68 per share and a 20% margin of safety is $54/share.
