New Stock Issue
Bynum and Crumpton Inc. (B&C), a small jewelry manufacturer,
has been successful and has enjoyed a positive growth trend. Now
B&C is planning to go public with an issue of common stock, and
it faces the problem of setting an appropriate price for the stock.
The company and its investment banks believe that the proper
procedure is to conduct a valuation and select several similar
firms with publicly traded common stock and to make relevant
comparisons.
Several jewelry manufacturers are reasonably similar to B&C
with respect to product mix, asset composition, and debt/equity
proportions. Of these companies, Abercrombe Jewelers and Gunter
Fashions are most similar. When analyzing the following data,
assume that the most recent year has been reasonably "normal" in
the sense that it was neither especially good nor especially bad in
terms of sales, earnings, and free cash flows. Abercrombe is listed
on the AMEX and Gunter on the NYSE, while B&C will be traded in
the Nasdaq market.

The price obtained with the corporate valuation model is -Select-withinout ofItem 20 this range of prices.
a) Value of equity:
Cash flow in year 5 = $1,462,000
given growth rate after year 5 = 7%
so cash flow from year 6 on wards = 1,462,000 + 7% = $1,564,340
using growth perpetuity formula = future cash flow / Ke - g
here,
future cash flow = 1,564,340
Ke = WACC = 12%
growth = g =7%
continuous value = 1564340 / 12% - 7%
= $31,286,800
calculating present values:
year FCF PV factor @12% PV of cash flows
1 1,000,000 0.89285714 892,857.143
2 1,050,000 0.797193877 837,053.571

4 1,329,000 0.635518078 844,603.526
5 1,462,000 0.5674268557 829,578.063
6 31,286,800 0.5674268557 17,752,970.549
present value 22,016,893.39
so from the above total value of B & C = $22,016,893(rounded off to nearest dollar)
value of debt = $4,000,000
so value of equity(total value - value of debt) = 22,016,893 - 4,000,000 = $18,016,893
number of shares outstanding = 500,000
so price per share = 18,016,893 / 500,000 = $36.034

1)debt / assets (D / A) | (35 / 125)*100 = 28% | (50 / 326)*100 = 15.34% | (4 / 13.5)*100 = 29.63% |
2)P / E(market price / EPS) | 30 / 2.2 = 13.64 | 53 / 3.13 = 16.93 | 36.034 / 2.6 = 13.86 |
3)MARKET / BOOK | 30 / 15 = 2 | 53 / 23 = 2.30 | 36.034 / 19 = 1.90 |
4)ROE(EPS / BOOK VALUE) | (2.2 / 15)*100 = 14.67% | (3.13 / 23)*100 = 13.61% | (2.6 / 19)*100 = 13.68 |
5)PRICE(Market) / FCF | 30 / 1.63 = 18.40 | 53 / 2.54 = 20.87 | 36.034 / 1.90 = 18.97 |

Basic Stock Valuation: Free Cash Flow Valuation Model The recognition that dividends are dependent on earnings, so a reliable dividend forecast is based on an underlying forecast of the firm's future sales, costs and capital requirements, has led to an alternative stock valuation approach, known as the free cash flow valuation model. The market value of a firm is equal to the present value of its expected future free cash flows: Market value of company FCF (1+WACC) + FCF (1+WACC)...

Goodwin Technologies, a relatively young company, has been wildly successful but has yet to pay a dividend. An analyst forecasts that Goodwin is likely to pay its first dividend three years from now. She expects Goodwin to pay a $3.7500 dividend at that time (D3-$3.7500) and believes that the dividend will grow by 19.50% for the following two years (D and Ds). However, after the fifth year, she expects Goodwin's dividend to grow at a constant rate of 3.96% per...
The corporate valuation model, the price-to-earnings (P/E) multiple approach, and the economic value added (EVA) approach are some examples of valuation techniques. The corporate valuation model is similar to the dividend-based valuation that you've done in previous problems, but it focuses on a firm's free cash flows (FCFS) instead of its dividends. Some firms don't pay dividends, or their dividends are difficult to forecast. For that reason, some analysts use the corporate valuation model. Tropetech Inc. has an expected net...
