•Benefits and Limitations in Relative Valuation
INTRODUCTION
Asset based valuation Using a business’ assets to determine value
COMMON VALUATION METHODS: ASSET BASED
Discounted Cash Flow Valuation A business’ cash-generating potential and capitalise its
value
COMMON VALUATION METHODS: CASH FLOW
Relative Valuation What comparable companies are worth to
benchmark a value
COMMON VALUATION METHODS: RELATIVE
RELATIVE VALUATION: INTRODUCTION
In relative valuation, the value of an asset is compared to the values assessed by the market for similar or comparable assets.
RELATIVE VALUATION: INTRODUCTION
Translate these market values into comparable metrics - price multiples
(because absolute figures cannot be compared)

RELATIVE VALUATION: INTRODUCTION
Compare price multiples for the asset being analysed to the multiples of its peers

MULTIPLE APPROACHES
There are two types of multiples in company valuation:
1. Enterprise Value (Firm Value) multiples
2.Equity Value multiples
ENTERPRISE VALUATION
Enterprise Value is the market value of a company’s:
• Net operational assets +
• Value of its future growth opportunities +
• Intangible assets

CALCULATING ENTERPRISE VALUE
Enterprise Value = Equity Value + Total Debt - Cash
Net DebtShare price * No. shares outstanding
EQUITY VALUATION
Equity value is the market value of a company’s shares to
its owners or shareholders

MULTIPLES OVERVIEW
VALUATION MULTIPLES
Most multiples are based on a type of earnings on a company’s income statement.
Enterprise multiples are calculated using earnings from above the interest line. • Eg. EV/Sales, EV/EBIT, EV/EBITDA
Equity multiples uses earnings figures from below the interest line. • Eg. P/E
Revenue multiples are used to value companies where earnings are not expected in the near term.
For example:
• High-growth firms or • Distressed companies
ENTERPRISE VALUE MULTIPLES: EV/SALES
QUESTION
Which of the following is the best description for equity value?
A. The total value of the business to all providers of capital
B. The total value of the business to all shareholders
C. The total value of the business to all providers of debt
QUESTION
Which of the following is the best description for enterprise value?
A. The total value of the business to all providers of capital
B. The total value of the business to all shareholders
C. The total value of the business to all providers of debt
ENTERPRISE VALUE MULTIPLES: EV/EBITDA
Market Cap + Total Debt - Cash EBIT + Depreciation + Amortisation
EV/EBITDA =
By applying EBITDA multiples to value a target company, this yields an enterprise value.
As an enterprise value multiple, it can be used to compare companies with differing amounts of debt (gearing)
It is also not affected by differences in depreciation and amortisation
ENTERPRISE VALUE MULTIPLES: EV/EBITDA
EQUITY MULTIPLES: P/E
•P/E ratios can only be judged against ratios of other companies in the same industry.
•P/E ratios can be distorted as Earnings per Share (EPS) is an accounting term.
•A high P/E can be achieved by retaining a great proportion of earnings and paying low dividends to reinvest for growth.
HOW TO INTERPRET A MULTIPLE?
The P/E ratio is the price an investor would pay for $1 of a company's earnings or net profit.
If a company is reporting earnings per share of $4 and the stock is selling for $40 per share, the P/E ratio is 10x
HOW TO INTERPRET A MULTIPLE?
Two similar companies are both trading for $40 per share
Company A has reported earnings of $10 per share.
Company B has reported earnings of $20 per share.
How do we interpret both companies P/E ratios?
HOW TO INTERPRET A MULTIPLE?
Company A has a price-to-earnings ratio of 4x. Company B has a P/E ratio of 2x.
This means company B is much cheaper on a relative basis.
If a company has a higher EBITDA multiple compared to other companies in its sector, this indicates all of the following except:
A. The company is over valued
B. The company demonstrates high growth prospects
C. The company is highly geared
QUESTION
THE ART OF SELECTING MULTIPLES
Investors in different sectors calculate different equity and enterprise value multiples depending on their focus:
In retailing: The focus is usually on like for like sales (turnover) and profit margins.
In real estate and financial services: The emphasis is usually on return on equity.
In technology: the emphasis is on growth theme
DIFFERENT MULTIPLES FOR DIFFERENT INDUSTRIES
Industry Multiple Reason
Manufacturing P/E Normalised with business cycle
Early stage growth Cos. Revenue Limited figures available
Financial Services Price / Book equity Marked to market
Infrastructure EV/EBITDA Large D&A
Which of the following is true?
A. Price to earnings ratio multiplied by earnings per share equals price per share
B. Price to earnings ratio divided by earnings per share equals price per share
C. Price per share multiplied by earnings per share equals price to earnings ratio

•Not a dynamic view of long-term prospects
ISSUES WITH TRADING MULTIPLES
TRAILING VS FORWARD LOOKING MULTIPLES
• Multiples based on Last 12 month (LTM) earnings are called Trailing multiples
• Share price divided by EPS forecasts for the next 12 months gives us a forward multiple
• Forward multiples are applied to the forecast earnings of the target company
• Incorporate expectations about future company performance
