pISCOUNTED CASH FLOWS METHOD
In Financial Management, it has been discussed that a way to determine the
yalue of an investment opportunity is by determining the actual cash
generated by 2 particular asset, Recall that discounted cash flows analysis
can be done by determining the present value of the net cash flows of the
investment opportunity. In Conceptual Framework and Accounting
Standards, it was discussed that the cash flows are presented and analyzed
based on their sources and activities which are categorized as operating,
investing and financing. in determining the value of an asset, the cash flows
are important reference or inputs. In determining the value of the asset, itis
essential to include amount of cash that will be available for the claims of the
equity owners.
The Net Cash Flows refer to the amount of cash available for distribution to
both debt and equity claims of the business or asset. This is calculated from
the net cash generated from operations and for investment over time. For
GCBO, the net cash flows generated will be based on the cash flows from
operating and investing activities, since this represents already the amount
earned or will be earned from the business and the amount that is required to
be infused in the operations to generate more profit
Net Cash Flows is preferred as basis of valuation if any of the following
conditions are present:
+ Company does not pay dividends
«Company pays dividends but the amount paid out significantly differs
from its capacity to pay dividends
+ Net Cash Flows and profits are aligned within a reasonable forecast
period
«Investor has a control perspective. If an investor can exert control over
a company, dividends can be adjusted based on the decision of the
controlling investor.
Using net cash flows over other cash flow concepts is more advantageous in
2 valuation activity since this metric can be directly used as input to @ DCF
model. This is not the case for other cash flow or earnings measure such as
EBITDA, EBIT, net income and cash flow from operations since these metrics
might have missed or double counted an item
«+ EBITDA and EBIT are both metrics that are before taxes; cash flows
that are available to investors should be after satisfying tax

There are two levels of Net Cash Flows: (1) Net Cash Flows to the Firm; and
(2) Net Cash Flows to Equity. The Net Cash Flows to the Firm is the amount
made available to both debt and equity claims against the company. The Net
Cash Flows to Equity represents the amount of cash flows made available to
the equity stockholders after deducting the net debt or the outstanding
liabilities to the creditors less available cash balance of the company. The net
cash flows can be determined by referring to the financial statements of the
‘company.
Net Cash Flow to the Firm
Net cash flow to the firm refers to the cash flow available to the parties who
supplied capital (ie. lenders and shareholders) after paying all operating
expenses, including taxes, and investing in capital expenditures and working
capital as required by business needs. NCF to the firm is cash flowsOTM Keon ea EUcLn eyelet

+ Net Income Available To Common Shareholders.
Basic measure of a firm's profitability which refers to the bottom line
figure in an income statement. This is the amount left for the common
shareholders after deducting all costs, expenses, depreciation,
amortization, interest, taxes and dividends to preferred shareholders.
This is an accounting measure, meaning that non-cash items like
depreciation and amortization is also included as a deduction to arrive
at net income. However, this measure does not include changes in
working capital nor capital investments made during the specific period
which significantly affects a firm's cash flows.
+ Non-Cash Charges (Net).
Pertains to non-cash items that are included in the computation of net
income. Analyst usually look at the statement of cash flows to validate
potential non-cash charges. If amount in the income statement does
ot match amount reflected in the cash flows statement, it can be
indicative that a portion of that expense is non-cash. The common non-
cash items are the following

Restructuring refers to the change in the organizationa,
structure or business model of a company adapt to Changing
semomic climate or business needs: Most restructurn
involves involuntary separation of employees. AS a result, the
restructuring requires the company to pay them severance
pay. Severance pay should comply with the minimum
fFequirements set in the Labor Code of the Philippines
Severance pays are normally outright cash outflows.
The company may also need to record write-down in value of
pension assets (or reversal of previous accruals) as a result of
the restructuring activity. This is usually recorded as part of he
restructuring expenses (income) in the income statement
However, since there are no cash outlays involved in write.
downs (reversal gains), this should be added back to
(deducted from) net income to get NCF.

Collected then it should be added back to the net income

‘VALUATION CONCEPTS AND METHODOLOGIES,
After-Tax Interest Expense Interest expense (net of any tax savings)
o
his interest expense is a cash flow intended for
Company. This means that when the company pays interest teduces
tax to be paid. Hence, the cash outflow is the amount of interest
expense less any tax savings. en
After-tax interest expense is added back to net incom
income since the
objective of NCF is to measure the cash flows associated with the
operating activity of the business. The impact of financing should be
neutralized to arrive at the real business value based on its operations.
Working Capital Adjustment
Aso known as working capital, this item represents the net investment
in current assets such as receivables and inventory reduced by
current liabilities like payables. The amount captured is based on the
movements in these accounts from prior year.
Required investment in current assets tend to increase when a firm's
sales grow consistently year on year, Higher receivables and
inventories are needed in order to support rising revenues. The
company also needs higher financing through accounts payable or
taxes payable to fund these receivables and inventories. Increase in
current assets means cash outflow while higher current liabilities are
cash inflows. Otherwise, the company may miss out on sales growth
if they lack the current assets and liabilities to suppor it. Fast growing
firms engaged in industries with high working capital needs like
retailing and manufacturing tend to have substantial rise in working
capital. Companies do not need to pay for taxes when they are
investing in their operating capital. On the other hand, if current assets
requirement decline, this means that more cash is available to debt
and equity providers, thus, added back
For NCF and valuation purposes, movements in cash, marketable
securities short-term notes payable and current portion of long-term
debt is excluded in the computation. Cash is excluded since the
purpose of the NCF exercise is to identify what is the real cash flow of
the business. Marketable securities are also excluded since these are
not directly inked to operations. On the other hand, notes payable and
current portion of long-term debt are excluded since they are
associated with the financing side of the business.

From Statement of Cash Flows
NGF can also be computed using cash flows from operating activities
{in the statement of cash flows) as the starting point, Analysts usually
start from this item since it already considers adjustment for noncash
expenses and working capital investments.
As a refresher, the statement of cash flows classifies cash flow into
three major sections: cash flow from operating activities, cash flow
from investing activities and cash flow from financing activities.
Cash Flows from Operating Activities Php xxx

+ Cash flow from operating activities
This represents how much cash the company generated from its
operations. This shows how much cash is received from
customers and how much cash outflows are paid to vendors. This
also captures changes in current assets and current liabilities,
Normally, this is computed from net income by considering non-
cash items and working capital changes. This is considered in
computing for NCFF.
+ Cash flow from investing activities
This represents how much cash is disbursed (received) for
investments in (sale of) long-term assets like property, plant and
‘equipment and strategic investments in other companies. This is
considered in computing for NCFF. If this section reflects
transactions involving financial assets, this should be excluded.

the company. This is not considered when computing NCFF. ThisCEPTS AND METHODOLOGIES

Amortization pertains to income before deducting interest, taxes,
depreciation and amortization expenses, net of taxes
Since the basis of the computation for the NCFF is already the
earnings after excluding the financing costs, taxes and other non
cash charges, the NCFF should only consider the amount net of
the applicable taxes to be paid. This to conservatively show the
EBITDA at the amount net to be realized by the investor,
‘+ Tax Savings on Non-cash Charges.
Non-cash charges are not typically adjusted if NCFF starts with
EBITDA. However, it is important that analyst should check
whether non-cash charges were already deducted in computing for
EBITDA or not. If deducted, then there is a need to add the item
back. Ifnon-cash charges are not yet deducted from EBITDA, there
is no need to add it back to compute for NCFF,
Instead of adjusting for the full amount, analyst should add back
the corresponding tax savings related to this non-cash charges 10
EBITDA. Several non-cash charges such as depreciation and
amortization are tax-deductible. This means that occurrence of
these expenses reduces the taxes that the company should p2:

Concepts on investments in fixed and working capital is same as
previous discussion.
Net Cash Flow to Equity
Net Cash Flow to Equity or NCFE refers to cash available for common equity
participants or shareholders only after paying operating expenses, satistying
operating and fixed capital requirements and settling cash flow transactions
involving debt providers and preferred shareholders. NCFE can be computed
from NCFF by considering items related to lenders and preferred
shareholders.
NCFE signifies the level of available cash that a business can freely declare
as dividends to its common shareholders. This may stil differ significantly
from the dividends actually declared and paid out since this decision is made
upon the discretion of a company's board of directors. Companies tend to
manage their dividend policy: some slowly increase dividends over time while
some maintain current dividends despite actual profitability. As a result
dividend trend is seen as less volatile compared to earnings as this is
managed by the board of directors.

This refers to the amount of cash received by the company as a result of

Terminal Value
Since GCBOs is assumed to operate in a long period of time to almost
Datpetuty, the risk and returns are inherent to the opportunity at the end of
the projection period should also be quantified. Furthermore, the economic
valve that will be generated by the assets is expected to be stable after some
Point in time since the projections are reliant on certain assumptions made.
The challenge for the determination of the value of the asset is to also account
‘orthe economic returns that it will generate in perpetuity. This is addressed
bythe Terminal Value. Terminal Value represents the value of the company
"perpetuity or in a going concern environment. In practice, there are several
“ays on how to determine the terminal value.SMe |ETHODOLOGIES
Basis of Terminal Value
1. Liquidation Value
ome analysis find that the terminal Value be based on the estimateg
salvage value of the assets. ‘Methodologies on how to determing tn
satvage or liquidation value was discussed" Chapter 3 e
2. Estimated Perpetual Value
the terminal value is by using the farthes,

Substituting the given figures, the growth is computed as
g= () = 1} x 100%

9 = 10%
Since the growth rate is 10%, it will be applied on the farthest cash
flows i.e. on the 5" year equivalent to Php7.32, thus the farthest cash
flows is now Php8.05 or will substitute the CFp.;. It is now assumed
that the cash flows will continuously growth at the rate of 10% per
annum. Thus, the formula can now be applied.

In some cases, that the historical growth pattern is undetermined,
some analysts only consider the cost of capital or their required return

TV = PhpS3.06
You may observe that the terminal value in this case is more
conservative by about Php107.
3. Constant Growth
Challenges for some valuators is to determine the amount of required
return for a specific type of asset or investment. In lieu of the required
return, they use the growth rate as the proxy especially if the growth
is constant and significant.
4, Scientific Estimates
Other valuators especially those with vast experience already in some
types of investments uses other basis for them to determine the
reasonable terminal value. Using guesstimates is not prevented
because in the end, equity values will still be based on negotiation.
There is no perfect approach to determine the terminal value. Actually, some
risk averse investors don't consider the terminal value in their valuation. The
differences in their appreciation on the determination or even the inclusion of
the terminal value is dependent on their risk appetite. Then again, the
valuation method will only serve as a reference to determine the reasonable
value for the equity or the asset being purchased. This is why negotiation
plays a key role in finalizing the determined value.
Other inputs in the Net Cash Flows
The present value of the Net Cash Flows represents the value of the assets
It may be recalled further that the assets are financed by debt and equity
Hence, these are the claims which are presented at the right side of the
Statement of Financial Position, under an account form of reporting
The discounted cash flows analysis factors in all the projected stream of cash
flows that the project, opportunity or investment and valuing it in present time
to determine whether the investment made on this year would be less thanRN Nannon yeera
the value it wll generate in the future, that means the investment yielded an
‘amount sufficient to cover the investment and allowing the investors to earn
‘more. Same principle applies that the best opportunity is the one that will yield
the highest present value or solely if the opportunity will result into a positive
‘amount it should be accepted. Conservatively, the total outstanding liabilities
must be considered and deducted versus the asset value to determine the
amount appropriated to the equity shareholders. This is called the equity
value. The opportunity that will result in the highest equity value is considered.
DCF Analysis is most applicable to use when the following are available
+ Validated Operational and Financial Information
+ Reasonable appropriated cost of capital or required rate of return
+ New quantifiable information
illustrative Example No.1
Bagets Corporation has projected to generate revenues, cash operating
expenses, and the corresponding tax payments for the next five years:

Financial Models in Discounted Cash Flows Analysis
Financial Modelling is a sophisticated and confidential activity in a company
‘or for an analyst. Information is can also be considered as competitive
advantage of a company or a person. Most of the companies hire financial
modelers to assist them in determining the value of GCBOs or other
opportunities. They also ask them to validate ballpark estimates and may also
be used to determine impairments. Most financial modelers have extensive
financial acumen and vast knowledge and experience, Financial modelers
normally are economists, financial managers, and accountants. Management
accountants are good candidate for this role given their ability to understand
‘operational models and design long term financial strategies.

In order to develop financial models, the following steps needs to bi
opserved wd
4, Gather historical information and references
Historical information must be made available before the financial model is to
be constructed. Historical information may be generated from, but not limited
to the following: audited financial statements, corporate disclosures,
contracts, and peer information. ,
Audited Financial Statements are the most ideal reference for the historical
performance of the company. The components of the Audited Financial
Statements enable the analyst or the financial modeler to assess the future
of the company based on its past performance. Statement of Income are used
to determine the historical financial performance, Statement of Financial
Position is used to determine the book value of the assets and the disclosed
stakes of the debt and equity financiers, Statement of Cash Flows illustrate
how the company historically financing its operations and investments.
Statement of Changes in Stockholder’s Equity provides the information on
how much is the claim and dividend background of the company. One of the
most important components of the financial statements are the Notes to the
Financial Statements. It provides the summary of important disclosure that
should be considered in the valuation. The financial modeler must be able to
quantify these disclosures and more importantly the risks involved
Corporate disclosures are also key in developing the financial model.
Corporate disclosures provide more context for the future plans and strategies
of the company. This will enable the analysts or the financial modelers to
identify the risks about the GCBO and quantify them accordingly. Since these
are available to the public, itis the same information that is known to others.
The difference among modelers are their personal appreciation to risk and
their client's appetite for risks.
Contracts are formal agreements between parties. In valuing the GCBOs, it
's important for the modeler to also know the existing contracts and the
covenants contained in it. Large accounting firms offer transaction advisory
services to assist their clients who enter info new ventures. Due diligence is
necessary to verify any contingent liability and other legal risks surrounding
that opportunity and quantify it accordingly to have a more conservative value.
The modeler must be able to classify the probability of these from occurring,

Once all relevant information was gathered and validated, drivers and prices
assumptions can be established by conducting financial analysis. Drivers are of the
suggested to be those validated and is represented by authorities like
government or experts. Growth drivers are normally based on population,
since most of the businesses are consumer goods. if services, industry
growth may be used as a driver. In the Philippines, information is avaiable

For other economic factors, drivers, and estimates, Bangko Sentral ng
Pilipinas and National Economic and Development Authority are also other
agencies that can be relied with. Certain statistical information can also be
found from the websites or research centers of the Local Government Units
and National Government Agencies. Research organizations may also be
used, however, strong validation and evaluation needs to be done to isolate
any form of biases that may affect value.
The usual growth indicators used are: inflation, population growth, GNP or
GDP growth. In economics, the inflation is the result of the movement of
prices from a year to another. This is calculated by comparing the movement
of the price of the basket of commodities from a year to another or @ period
to another. Inflation is computed using this formula.
CP
CP
CPI, = consumer price index ~ current year
CPI, = consumer price index - base year
The consumer price index represents the price of the basket of commodities
in financial modelling, you need the inflation to be used
for a particular period. I

to calculate the value: (1) nominal and (2) real.
Nominal financial models are already in current prices, meaning, the prices
Slated in the model already assumes that the prices grew or decline, in the
case of inflation or deflation respectively. Some uses the headline inflation to
determine the current price. Real financial model, on the other hand, does not
include the effect of changes in prices, but rather preserve the price offoes

Moe aye. The formula to caleuate for the population growth rate is similar with
the inflation, except that the input is the population count of @ particular

the population is 25,200. The survey is conducted in 2020 and the population

To illustrate the application, assuming that the estimated consumption of pan
de sal in Barangay A is 5 pcs average per head. If you are going to project
the number of pan de sal to be sold in 2021, it wll be 138,915 units computed
as follows:
Current pan de sal sold (26,460 x 5) 132,300
Increase in pan de sal (26,460 x 5% x5) _ 6,618
Total estimated pan de sal 138,915
Financial ratios may be used as tools to determine the growth drivers and
assumptions. Trend analysis will also help you establish the trajectory of
‘growth pattern. The financial modeler must assess whether the company cafReh esae eu ose eere sy
sustain the pattern otherwise it is conservative to assume a less aggressive
growth. Normally the weighted growth patter will be considered in the long-
term financial perspective. It must be assessed whether the average year on
year growth will be sustained or may be surpassed
To illustrate, PUP Company's historical production grows 10% per year. Itis
expected that in the next five years the probability are as follows
Scenario Rate | Probability
A 5% 10%
B 10% 40%
c 15% 50%
With the given information, the weighted average growth rate to be used is
42% computed as follows:
‘Scenario Rate Probability | Weighted
) 2) (Nx)
A 5% 10% 0.5%
B 10% 40% 4.0%
c 15% 50% 75%
Total 12.0%
In this situation, the financial modeler can safely use the 12.0% for projecting
sales moving forward. Hence, if the sales for this year was reported to 8,500
units then under the average sales computed will result to 9,520 units sold.
3. Determine the reasonable cost of capital
In determining the reasonable cost of capital, the financial modeler must be
able to use the appropriate parameters for the company. Generally, cost of
debt and cost of equity are weighted to determine the cost of capital
reasonable for the valuation.
4. Apply the formulae to compute for the value
Normally in Financial Modelling, DCF is used to calculate for the value. Since
‘Most information are already available in Financial model, it can be easier to
Use other capital budgeting techniques like Internal Rate of Return,
Profitability Index etc.

itthis is the case, we need to design the financial model to accommodate this
through the use of Data Table feature in Microsoft Excel. First, design a table
where the values will be inputted.
Next, select the table we prepared by highlighting cells C17 to D19 and you
goto DATA Tab and go to ‘What if Analysis then select ‘Data Table’
Data Table Dialogue box will appear and will ask you to enter the inputs.
Since the table we are doing provides for a columnar input. Then we'll input
C17 in the COLUMN INPUT and click OK.
