  18. Appendix: Valuation Overview

  19. Valuation Introduction Valuation is the central discipline in investment banking Valuation requires interpretation of information and sound judgment Dependent on the quality of information available Generally expressed as a range Valuation is about finding equilibrium between risk and reward Fair market value = price at which willing buyer and willing seller will transact when both have complete information Different categories of buyers (strategic, sponsors) may be prepared to pay different prices Price is affected by many factors including target ownership, market trends, synergies(specific to buyer), competitive dynamics (e.g. auction vs. negotiated deal), etc. In the end, a business/asset is only worth what a purchaser will pay for it, irrespective of theory

  20. Valuation – Key Definitions • Going Concern Value – value of a collection of assets that constitute an operating business • Future cash flow is key; history may be good predictor • Liquidation Value – sale of each asset or collection of assets independently • Used almost exclusively in a reorganization or restructuring • Firm Value (or Enterprise Value) • Total value of an operating business, regardless of its capital structure • Equity Value (or Market Value of Equity, or Market Cap) • Value of an operating business to its Equity holders • Net Debt • Total Indebtedness for borrowed money • Preferred claims against the value of the business (preferred stock, “out of the money” convertible securities, minority interests) • Less: Cash and cash equivalents Enterprise Value Equity Value Net Debt

  21. What Drives Valuation? Discount Multiple EBITDA: 4.0x Revenue: 0.5x • Valuation Scale Premium Multiple EBITDA: 8.0x Revenue: 1.5x

  22. Valuation – A Combination of Approaches Target Valuation Range

  23. Typical Valuation Methodologies The following valuation methodologies are commonly used for valuation analysis: Approach Description • Analysis of similar public companies yields a current valuation and aggregate reflection of public market value. This value is then discounted to account for the size, liquidity and comparability to Apollo Video Technology. Comparable Public Companies Analysis Recent mergers and acquisitions involving businesses similar to Apollo Video Technology demonstrate how acquirers have valued comparable companies in change of control transactions. Comparable Transactions Analysis Cash flows for a standalone entity are projected forward and then discounted at an appropriate risk-adjusted rate to arrive at an intrinsic value of the business. Terminal value can be estimated using an implied transaction multiple or perpetuity. Discounted Cash Flow Analysis

  24. Comparable Public Companies Equity of fundamentally similar, or “comparable” companies tends to be valued on a relatively consistent basis by the public markets This is assumption is not always valid! Identify a universe of public companies which are fundamentally comparable to the target Judgment and business sense are key Similarity of industry/products/markets, business model, financial profile Analyze key ratios and operating data for each comparable to determine key metrics used by public markets for valuation Understand how comparable companies are valued relative to profitability, growth, etc. Based on data acquired in this analysis, determine a range of values for the target The valuation range must be adjusted to reflect the differences of the target from the universe of comparables Private company, size premium, control premium, IPO discount, etc.

  25. Comparable Public Companies – Valuation Metrics Firm Value Metrics Enterprise Value/Revenue Enterprise Value/EBITDA Enterprise Value/EBIT Equity Value Metrics Equity/Net Income Price/Earnings Profitability Stability (Risk) Growth Rate Size Capital Intensity Acquisition History Capital Structure Tax Position Revenue EBITDA EBIT Net Income

  27. Comparable Companies Valuation Example

  28. Comparable Transactions Value a company or an asset by comparing reported comparable acquisitions and precedent transactions Comparability of the target on the basis of similar characteristics (business mix, customer base, distribution channels, industry dynamics, etc.) Typical benchmarks include multiples of net income (Equity Value multiples) and multiples of Revenue, EBITDA and EBIT (Firm Value multiples) Key is also to understand the key traits of the transaction, besides the comparability of the target Friendly vs. hostile Auction vs. negotiated deal Majority stake (control) vs. minority position Merger of equals vs. outright acquisition Consideration paid: cash, shares, cash and shares Outright acquisitions potentially involves a “control premium” above comparable trading company multiples Synergy potential to acquirer is key determinant of value

  29. Comparable Transactions Analysis Example

  30. Comparable Transactions Valuation Example

  31. Discounted Cash Flows (DCF) Intrinsic value of a business is measured by its future free cash flows Value = Present Value of all future cash flows Free Cash Flow (“FCF”) Cash generated by a company’s operations and is available for distribution to the providers of capital (Debt + Equity holders), net of the cash needed to invest for growth Discount Rate and Weighted Average Cost of Capital (WACC) Cash flows are discounted to reflect the time value of money and the uncertainty associated with the cash flows The DCF analysis is one of many valuation approaches Compare results with the valuation derived from other methods The DCF analysis is less reliant on external market factors and focuses more heavily on internal cash flow generation Perform sensitivity of value on key assumptions to test results University of Washington
