Microchip became an independent company in 1989 when it was spun off from General Instrument. It is based in Chandler, Ariz., with production facilities in Arizona, Oregon, and Thailand. More than 80% of sales come from microcontrollers, which are used in a wide array of electronic devices from LCD displays to remote controls. The company has focused in recent years on lower-end eight-bit microcontrollers that are suitable for a wider range of less technologically advanced devices.
Estimated WACC for the firm today is 10.36% using the Capital Asset Pricing Model and the company's recent SEC filings.

Scenario 1
Average FCF (2012, 2011, 2010) is $399
Average FCF (2012, 2011, 2010) is $399
- Start at $399 million FCF
- Assume a 5-year growth rate in FCF of 13% 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 10.36%, give a present value for the entire firm (Debt + Equity) of $7043 million. If the firm's fair value of debt is estimated at $1585 million, then the fair value of the firm's equity could be $5458 million. $5458 million / 194 million outstanding shares is approximately $28 per share and a 20% margin of safety is $22/share.
