FRAMEWORK FOR ANALYSIS AND VALUATION MODULE 1
Financial Statement Analysis & Valuation
Financial Statement Analysis The process of extracting information from financial
statements to better understand a companys current and future performance and financial condition.
Valuation The process of drawing on the results of financial
statement analysis to estimate a companys worth (enterprise value).
PresenterPresentation NotesAccounting choices can make the information difficult to compare companys on its surface
Step 1: Business Environment and Accounting Information
Value Chain
Seeks to identify and understand the activities that create a companys profit margin.
Porters Competitive Analysis (5 Forces)
Industry competition Bargaining power of buyers Bargaining power of suppliers Threat of substitution Threat of entry
Five Forces of Competitive Intensity
This is a tool to be used to assess competitive forces which impact profitability. The more competitive forces, the lower the profitability potential.
SWOT Analysis
Step 2: Adjusting and Assessing Financial Information
Financial Accounting is not an exact science GAAP allows companies choices in preparing
financial statements (inventories, property, and equipment). Why is this process necessary? What is this process called?
Companies must choose among the alternatives that are acceptable under GAAP.
Financial statements also depend on countless estimates.
PresenterPresentation NotesAccounting choices can make the information difficult to compare companys on its surface
Step 3: Forecasting Financial Numbers
The theoretical linkage between earnings and stock prices is as follows: current earnings predict future earnings future earnings help determine expected future
dividends these future dividends, when discounted, determine
current stock price
We will learn forecasting in Module 11.
Step 4: Company Valuation
In most cases, we think of the worth of a company as the current value of expected payoffs.
Modules 12, 13, and 14 describe how to compute value using dividends, cash flows, and earnings as the payoffs.
Market-based valuation is described in Module 15.

BUSINESS ACTIVITIES & FINANCIAL STATEMENTS MODULE 2
Four Main Financial Statements
Balance Sheet Income Statement Statement of Stockholders Equity Statement of Cash Flows
I. Balance Sheet
Mirrors the Accounting Equation Assets = Liabilities + Equity
Uses of funds = Sources of funds
Assets are listed in order of liquidity What constitutes Short Term vs Long Term?
What is liquidity? Which assets are most liquid?
Liabilities are listed in order of maturity What constitutes Short Term vs Long Term?
Equity consists of Contributed Capital and Retained Earnings
Apples Assets
PresenterPresentation NotesWhich Assets get USED UP to generate REVENUES / CONVERTED into CASH?
Apples Liabilities and Equity
Net Working Capital
Net working capital =
Current assets Current liabilities
PresenterPresentation NotesWorking Capital is a measure of short-term liquidity.Can I pay by bills in the short-run?What is the rationale for using this relationship to assess short-term liquidity?
Book Value vs Market Value
Stockholders Equity is the value of the company determined by GAAP and is commonly referred to as the companys BOOK VALUE.
This value is different from a companys MARKET VALUE (aka their market capitalization or market cap) which is computed by multiplying the number of outstanding common shares by the per share market value. Example: APPLE Computer on September 25, 2010.
BOOK Value of Equity at $47.791 Billion
MARKET Value at $267.8 Billion ($292.32 per share x 915,970,050 shares)
Book Value & Market Value differ for many reasons including: GAAP generally reports assets and liabilities at historical costs whereas the market attempts to estimate fair
market value.
GAAP excludes resources that cannot be reliably measured (such as talented management, employee morale, recent innovations or successful marketing, etc)
GAAP does not consider market differences such as competitive conditions, expected changes, etc.
GAAP does not usually report expected future performance whereas the market attempts to predict future performance.
Currently, US Companys, book value, is, on average, about 66% of their market value.
II. Income Statement
PresenterPresentation NotesWhich line item is the most important number used by analysts to determine a valuation for a corporation?
III. Statement of Stockholders Equity
Statement of Equity is a reconciliation of the beginning and ending balances of stockholders equity accounts.
Main equity categories are: Contributed capital Retained earnings (including Other Comprehensive
Income or OCI) Treasury stock
Apples Statement of Stockholders Equity
IV. Statement of Cash Flows
Statement of cash flows (SCF) reports cash inflows and outflows
Cash flows are reported based on the three business activities of a company: Cash flows from operating activities - Cash flows from the
companys transactions and events that relate to its operations. Cash flows from investing activities - Cash flows from
acquisitions and divestitures of investments and long-term assets. Cash flows from financing activities - Cash flows from issuances
of and payments toward borrowings and equity.
Apples Statement of Cash Flows
PresenterPresentation NotesWould you want Operating Cash Flows to be an inflow/outflow?Investing activities?Financing activities?
V. Articulation of Financial Statements
Financial statements are linked within and across time they articulate.
Balance sheet and income statement are linked via retained earnings.
VI. Analyzing Transactions & Adjustments
Accrual accounting refers to the recognition of revenue when earned (even if not received in cash) and the matching of expenses when incurred (even if not paid in cash).
We utilize the FSET (Financial Statement Effects
Template) to illustrate such.

PROFITABILITY ANALYSIS & INTERPRETATION MODULE 3
I. Return on Equity
Return on Equity (ROE) is the principal summary measure of company performance:
Return on equity (ROE) is computed as:
It tells us the returns being generated on the equity put
into the company. The returns take two forms:
II. Operating Return (RNOA)
Return on Net Operating Assets (RNOA) The income statement reflects operating activities through
revenues, costs of goods sold (COGS), and other expenses. Step 1 Calculate NOPAT
Operating assets typically include receivables, inventories, prepaid expenses, property, plant and equipment (PPE), and capitalized lease assets, and exclude short-term and long-term investments in marketable securities.
Step 2 Calculate NOA
Operating Items in the Income Statement (Arriving at NOPAT Step 1)
Targets Operating Items (Arriving at NOPAT Step 1)
For Target:
NOPBT (Net Operating Profit Before Tax)
-Tax on Operating Profit
======================
= NOPAT (Net Operating Profit After Tax)
Net Operating Assets on the Balance Sheet (Arriving at NOA Step 2)
For Target
Targets NOA (Arriving at NOA Step 2)
Targets RNOA and ROE
III. Disaggregation of RNOA
Disaggregating RNOA into its two components can reveal more about the company performance: Profit Margin Asset Turnover
IV. Non-operating Return Component of ROE
Assume that a company has $1,000 in average assets for the current year in which it earns a 20% RNOA. It finances those assets entirely with equity investment (no debt).
Its ROE is computed as follows:
What is their Debt to Equity Ratio?
Appendix 3B: DuPont Disaggregation Analysis
Profit margin is the amount of profit that the company earns from each dollar of sales.
Asset turnover is a productivity measure that reflects the volume of sales that a company generates from each dollar invested in assets.
Financial leverage measures the degree to which the company finances its assets with debt rather than equity.
Operating Return
(ROA in this case)
Non-Operating Return
(ROFL in this case)
DuPont Disaggregation for Target
Notice the results are slightly different from the results of the formulas presented earlier in the chapter. With the exception of ROE.

CREDIT RISK ANALYSIS & INTERPRETATION MODULE 4
Supply of Credit
There are many sources of credit to meet companies demand which include:
II. Credit Analysis
Purpose is to quantify the risk of loss from non-payment
Involves several steps Step 1: Assess nature and purpose of the
loan Step 2: Assess macroeconomic environment
and industry conditions Step 3: Perform financial analysis Step 4: Perform prospective analysis
Credit Analysis Step 1
Step 1: Assess nature and purpose of the loan Must determine why the loan is necessary Nature and purpose of the loan affect its riskiness Possible loan uses
Cyclical cash flows needs Fund temporary or ongoing operating losses Major capital expenditures or acquisitions Reconfigure capital structure
Credit Analysis Step 2
Step 2: Assess macroeconomic environment and industry conditions
Industry competition Involves the companys competitive position and the effect on its financial results
Buyer power Can be a credit risk if customers have the ability to have stronger price concessions
Supplier power A factor if suppliers have strong bargaining power and can demand higher prices
and early payments Threat of substitution
Occurs when a company has limitations on products such as to inhibit price increases or pass costs to customers
Threat of entry Occurs with new market entrants increase competition Company could be subject to aggressive tactics where the new entrants try to win
over clients
Credit Analysis Step 3
Step 3: Perform financial analysis Includes focusing on performing analysis of the financial statements Adjustments to financial statements made to provide more accurate
ratios and forecasts Excludes one-time events that will not persist Includes all operating assets and liabilities Considers items that may distort operations
Considers items that surround profitability using return on net operating assets (RNOA)
Net operating profit margin (NOPM) Net operating asset turnover (NOAT)
Profitability Analysis Example Home Depots net operating profit after taxes (NOPAT):
= $5,839 [$1,935 + ($566 x 36.7%)] = $3,696
Interest expense plus other
non-operating expenses
Statutory tax rate
Operating income
Tax expense
Coverage Analysis Times Interest Earned Ratio
Reflects the operating income available to pay interest expense
Assumes only interest must be paid because the principal will be refinanced
Earnings before interest and taxes Times interest earned = Interest expense
EBITDA is a non-GAAP performance metric More widely used than the Times interest earned ratio
because depreciation does not require a cash outflow Always higher than times interest earned ratio Measures companys ability to pay interest out of
current profits
Earnings before tax + Interest expense, net + Depreciation + Amortization
EBITDA coverage =
Interest expense
Coverage Analysis EBITDA Coverage Ratio
Coverage Analysis Cash from Operations to Total Debt
Measures a companys ability to generate additional cash to cover debt payments as they come due.
Cash from operations Cash from operations to
total debt =
Short-term debt + Long-term debt
Coverage Analysis Free Operating Cash Flow to Total Debt
Considers excess operating cash flow after cash is spent on capital expenditures
Cash from operations - CAPEX Free operating cash flow to
total debt =
Short-term debt + Long-term debt
Current Ratio
Current assets are those assets that a company expects to convert into cash within the next operating cycle, which is typically a year.
Current liabilities are those liabilities that come due within the next year.
An excess of current assets over current liabilities (Current assets Current liabilities), is known as net working capital or simply working capital.
Quick Ratio
The quick ratio focuses on quick assets. Quick assets include cash, marketable securities,
and accounts receivable; they exclude inventories and prepaid assets.
Solvency Ratios
Solvency refers to a companys ability to meet its debt obligations.
Solvency is crucial since an insolvent company is a failed company.
Two common solvency ratios:
Perform Prospective Analysis Step 4
Step 4: Forecast future results Based on adjusted past performance Should adjust the capital structure to reflect
anticipated future debt retirements as they come due over the forecast horizon
Compute ratios based on the forecast Evaluate changes and trends Perform sensitivity analysis
III. Minimization of Potential Loss
Structure credit terms for loans in advance Credit limits Collateral Repayment terms Covenants
Trade-off exists between being too strict where the terms cause the borrower to default, and not being strict enough causing the borrower to default
IV. Credit Ratings
Are opinions of an entitys credit worthiness Capture the entitys ability to meet its financial
commitments as they come due Credit analysts at rating agencies
Provide ratings on both debt issues and issuers Consider macroeconomic, industry, and firm-specific
information Assess chance of default and ultimate payment in the
event of default
Credit Ratings by Agencies
Long-term issue rating scales used by Standard and Poors and Moodys Investor Services
