Accounting Allah shmoop enterprise value to eave it Doc Okay

00:09

First things first Enterprise value the value of the whole

00:13

enchilada The lettuce the cheese the corn flour tortilla The

00:17

you know mystery meat The enterprise value of a given

00:20

business is the total cost to replace it So if

00:24

you had a home you just bought for two hundred

00:26

thousand dollars down with a five hundred thousand our mortgage

00:29

the enterprise value of that home would be seven hundred

00:33

grand And parenthetically it's equity value would be two hundred

00:37

grand and you'd have two hundred grand in equity in

00:40

it and five hundred grand in debt on it Businesses

00:43

air valued And I'm kind of in a similar way

00:45

A company with say a hundred million dollars in even

00:48

or cash flow or cash profits might trade it and

00:50

say twelve times that even don number for now Don't

00:53

worry about why it trades a twelve twenty five at

00:56

twelve times that hundred million dollars in cash flow That

00:58

company is worth one point two billion dollars Why Because

01:02

Wall Street says so But the market capitalization of the

01:05

company might be we'll say only seven hundred million Why

01:09

Well because it has six hundred million dollars in debt

01:12

and one hundred million dollars in cash or net debt

01:15

of five hundred million box so that five hundred million

01:18

get subtracted from the one point two billion total to

01:21

get the equity value or set another way The enterprise

01:24

value of that business is one point seven billion because

01:28

you'd add that five hundred million dollars to the enterprise

01:30

notionally worth twelve times that hundred million bucks in cash

01:33

flow to try and replace it Lots of numbers and

01:36

ratios were thrown at you here So hang glider loose

01:38

or however you want Okay so even even does a

01:42

common evaluation metric or ratio in companies that a have

01:47

a lot of debt be are depreciating A lot of

01:50

capital expenditures and well see often don't have meaningful gap

01:54

earnings So another method has to be worked out to

01:57

evaluate their self worth other than ours The Friday in

02:00

therapy will help in the numbers Let's redo our definition

02:04

here of enterprise value from another angle there or even

02:07

the same angle there but with different lenses All right

02:10

there we go Let's start with a new home The

02:12

rich version of you just bought it for a million

02:15

dollars putting two hundred grand down and taking out a

02:16

mortgage for a hundred thousand bucks The equity or equity

02:19

capitalization Our equity value you have in your home at

02:21

this point is what now Yes two hundred thousand dollars

02:24

and the home's enterprise values a million bucks right We've

02:26

just said that because it would take a million bucks

02:28

toe fully replace that home Its enterprise value is a

02:32

million dollars Yes we're hammering this home Okay now back

02:35

to a more detailed company story Let's say human catapulting

02:39

has even Dov Forty million and one hundred sixty million

02:41

of debt Its growth rate in the industry trend suggested

02:44

it should trade about and ten times Even so ten

02:46

X EBITDA would give us four hundred million dollars of

02:49

gross value for the company But there's a hundred sixty

02:52

million dollars of debt which has to be subtracted from

02:55

the gross value to get the equities value So we

02:58

subtract hundred sixty million from the four hundred million dollars

03:00

to get two hundred forty million dollars of equity value

03:03

Like if the stock was trading publicly and there were

03:06

say ten million shares out it would be trading probably

03:10

at about twenty four bucks a share right Because the

03:12

stock price shows you what the equity value is The

03:15

Wall Street paying for it And we'd say that this

03:17

firm with one hundred sixty million dollars of debt is

03:20

lev ird for toe one debt Teo even dog that

03:23

is one hundred sixty million of debt TTO forty million

03:26

of even doc We don't ask ourselves Well how does

03:29

this company compare to human slingshots ink and to the

03:33

humoring ink as weapons of Miss Destruction Right Well slingshots

03:38

traded a lower multiple because while misfires air costly but

03:41

Human Rang trades at a premium of twelve times a

03:44

bit DA because of the nature of its physics in

03:46

the form of reusable humans when the shot is a

03:49

mist well this would be the comparable company multiple or

03:52

come Paco and in this case human catapults trade and

03:55

as might be expected at the midpoint of the range

03:58

of comparables aren't the last Metro is discounted cash flow

04:03

analysis which is the heavy valuation machinery that the professionals

04:07

generally used along with a weighted average cost of capital

04:11

In putting mathey clarity around their investment dollars Remember the

04:16

mantra A dollar today is worth more than a dollar

04:19

tomorrow This is the heart and soul of discounted cash

04:22

flow analysis Right So you're going to discount cash flows

04:26

into the future for risk and time But let's take

04:29

a deeper look A company will produce Net after everything

04:33

cash of one hundred dollars in your one two hundred

04:36

dollars in year two two fifty and three five hundred

04:39

for and eight hundred in Year five When it gets

04:42

sold on that eight hundred includes it's selling price so

04:44

this would be called shockingly a five year discounted cash

04:48

flow analysis Well your next step here is figure out

04:51

the discount rates The risk free rate is usually whatever

04:54

US government bond paper trades for In the analogous time

04:57

period that is you'd find a ten year T bill

04:59

that is halfway through its life span and figure out

05:02

what the rate is that it's paying If you went

05:04

to buy it right now so I'll say it's three

05:06

percent that's the five year risk free rate The risk

05:10

premium is the extra rate of interest You're going to

05:12

account for the likelihood that instead of producing in millions

05:17

on hundred two hundred to fifteen above above the company

05:19

produces on LY one hundred one hundred one hundred hundred

05:22

fifty so the company might do terribly relative to expectations

05:26

But it also might do a ton better than you

05:28

know your gases or projections The projection should generally be

05:32

in the fifty fifty over under his own III the

05:34

most likely case like you know when you have an

05:36

NFL game and there's a fifty fifty over under for

05:39

how many points are scored for both sides you know

05:42

stuff like that So let's say the premium on this

05:44

set of cash flows is eight percent to produce a

05:47

total of eleven percent That is there's eight percent in

05:50

risk on top of the risk free rate that attack

05:53

on right so total discount rate will be eleven percent

05:57

You then just set up the equation such that the

05:59

first five years show cash produced And then at the

06:02

end of those five years company is sold or goes

06:04

public or gets liquid or whatever But you sell all

06:06

your shares or all your assets or ownership and you

06:09

know you get your terminal value there Your end value

06:12

So let's say the company sells for a billion dollars

06:14

at the end when the tricky part in this SAT

06:17

lies in the power it aeration of the equation And

06:19

it would look something like this Yeah you don't need

06:22

to do the math here All you have to do

06:23

is think Yes we ask a lot Note that the

06:25

denominator of one point one one is iterated a ton

06:28

more in the out years versus hear one and one

06:31

point one one two the fifth powers about one point

06:34

seven So yeah interesting In your five you're dividing those

06:37

huge numbers by a pretty big number The notional eight

06:40

hundred million dollars in profits on a discounted basis is

06:44

only around four hundred seventy million Only stuffs what it's

06:46

worth today Almost half that is its present value is

06:50

just a bit more than half its terminal value The

06:53

key notion here is to separate balance sheet shenanigans and

06:56

our assets from the future earnings potential of the company

06:59

itself It is this separation that usually motivates an enterprise

07:03

value to even top perspective or valuation of a company

07:06

because in doing so the balance sheet is then separated

07:08

into the naughty chair words It's alone where it can

07:11

cloud the picture of the actual earnings potential of the

07:14

company itself and more pedantic Lee Company with a billion

07:18

dollars of net cash on its balance sheet should in

07:20

fact have a different lens looking at it like a

07:23

green one because it has so much excess cash you

07:26

know that it would when compared with a company with

07:28

three billion dollars of net debt So bottom line the

07:31

balance sheet matters a lot You have to adjust your

07:33

ratios to reflect company values because of it and you

07:38

know balance sheet matters And when it gets so does 00:07:40.277 --> [endTime] the thickness of the wall That's gotta hurt Hey
