MARKET
BASED
• Asset liabilities valuation
NET ASSETS
BASED
 Based on Free Cash Flows and riskiness of
capital
 Valuation based on
a. Cash Flow Projections
b. Discount Rate
c. Terminal Value
 Growth prospects & Earnings Capacity
 Discontinuation of biz
 Expansion of capacity
 Turnaround Cases
 Entire Biz Cycle
 Consideration – Policy change
 Operating Leverage – Utilization Capacity
 Product Mix
 Financing Policy
 Capex
 Expansion Capex
 Maintenance Capex
 Income Tax
 CAPM Method
 Leveraged Entity
 Weighted Average Cost of Capital (WACC)
 Deleveraged Entity
 Cost of Equity
 Equivalent to liquidation/sale value
 Value of CF after forecast period
 Methods - Perpetual Growth & Multiple
Approach
Step 1. Project free cash flow for the forecast period
Step 2. Determine a discount rate
Step 3. Discount the projected free cash flows to the
present and sum
Step 4. Calculate the perpetuity value and discount it
to the present
Step 5. Add the values from Steps 3 and 4, and divide
the sum by shares outstanding
