Free Cash Flows = NOPAT – Net Investment in Operating Capital

A firm which does not pay dividends can be valued by discounting all its FREE CASH FLOWS by its WACC. Free Cash Flows = the cash flows actually available for distribution to investors after the company has made all the new products, and working capital necessary to sustain ongoing operations.

  1. A firm which does not pay dividends can be valued by discounting all its FREE CASH FLOWS by its WACC Free Cash Flows = the cash flows actually available for distribution to investors after the company has made all the new products, and working capital necessary to sustain ongoing operations • Free Cash Flows = NOPAT – Net Investment in Operating Capital NOPAT = The Net Profit that a company would generate if it had no debt and held no non-operating assets • NOPAT = EBIT (1-Tax Rate) Net Investment in Operating Capital = Change in Operating Capital

  2. Operating Capital = Net Fixed Assets + Net Operating Working Capital Net Operating Working Capital = the working capital acquired with investor-supplied funds i.e. Current Assets – (Accounts Payable + Accruals)

  6. What was the free cash flow (FCF) for 2000? FCF = NOPAT – Net investment in Operating Capital = -$414,336 – ($1,852,832 – 1,187,200) = -$414,336 – $665,632 = -$1,079,968.

  7. net operating profit after taxes (NOPAT)? NOPAT = EBIT(1 – Tax rate) NOPAT00 = -$690,560(1 – 0.4) = -$690,560(0.6) = -$414,336.

  8. Operating Capital Operating capital = Net fixed assets + NOWC = $939,790 + $913,042 = $1,852,832. = $1,187,200. Operating capital00 Operating capital99

  9. Issues Regarding the Free Cash Flow Method • Free cash flow method is often preferred to the dividend growth model--particularly for the large number of companies that don’t pay a dividend, or for whom it is hard to forecast dividends. (More...)

  10. FCF Method Issues Continued • Similar to the dividend growth model, the free cash flow method generally assumes that at some point in time, the growth rate in free cash flow will become constant. • Terminal value represents the value of the firm at the point in which growth becomes constant.

  11. FCF estimates for the next 3 years are -$5, $10, and $20 million, after which the FCF is expected to grow at 6%. The overall firm cost of capital is 10%. 0 1 2 3 4 ... k = 10% g = 6% -5 10 20 21.20 -4.545 8.264 15.026 21.20 0.04 530 = = *TV3 398.197 416.942 *TV3 represents the terminal value of the firm, at t = 3.

  12. The firm’s value would therefore be $416.942
