The firm's future free cash flows, discounted at a WACC of 6.88%, give a present value for the entire firm (Debt + Equity) of $22658 million. If the firm's fair value of debt is estimated at $1636 million, then the fair value of the firm's equity could be $21022 million. $21022 million / 235 million outstanding shares is approximately $89 per share and a 20% margin of safety is $71/share.
