Assignment – Module 7: Assignment — DCF Valuation


Introduction:

Objective:

Analyze the given financial statements and use the Discounted Cash Flow (DCF) method to estimate the intrinsic value of a company by calculating Net Present Value (NPV).

Company Overview:

Company: GreenTech Solutions Ltd.
Industry: Renewable energy
Stage: Mid-growth
Objective: Determine the intrinsic value of GreenTech based on 5-year cash flow projections.

Provided Data:

Historical Financial Data (Year 0):

  • Revenue: $10,000,000
  • EBITDA margin: 25%
  • Depreciation & Amortization: $500,000
  • Capital Expenditures (CapEx): $1,000,000
  • Change in Net Working Capital: $300,000
  • Tax rate: 25%
  • WACC (Discount Rate): 10%
  • Terminal Growth Rate: 3%

Assumptions for Projections (Years 15):

  • Revenue growth rate: 8% annually
  • EBITDA margin remains constant at 25%
  • CapEx increases by 5% annually
  • Depreciation remains constant
  • Change in Net Working Capital increases by 3% annually

Completion Instructions:

Requirements:

  1. Project the Income Statement and Cash Flows (Years 15):
    • Calculate EBITDA
    • Calculate EBIT (EBITDA – Depreciation)
    • Compute Taxes (EBIT * Tax Rate)
    • Calculate Net Operating Profit After Taxes (NOPAT)
    • Compute Free Cash Flow (EBITDA – Taxes – CapEx – Change in NWC)
  2. Calculate Terminal Value (TV):
    • Use the Gordon Growth Model:
      • TV = FCF_Year5 * (1 + g) / (WACC – g)
  3. Calculate Net Present Value (NPV):
    • Discount each years FCF and the terminal value using the WACC.

Submission Instructions:

Submit:

  • Excel sheet with calculations
  • Summary document (12 pages) explaining:
    • Key assumptions
    • Valuation insights
    • Final NPV result and interpretation

Complete and submit the assignment by 23:59 CST Sunday.
