Discounted Cash Flow to Firm (Perpetual Growth)

This model estimates the fair value of a share by discounting projected Free Cash Flow to the Firm (FCFF), also known as Unlevered Free Cash Flow.

The terminal value assumes cashflow grows at a constant Growth in Perpetuity rate forever:

Terminal Enterprise Value = FCFF_(final forecast year) × (1 + Growth in Perpetuity) / (Discount Rate - Growth in Perpetuity)

The terminal value and projected FCFF are discounted to present value using WACC. Equity value is obtained by adjusting enterprise value for net debt:

Equity Value = Cumulative Present Value of FCFF + Present Value of Terminal EV + Cash and Short Term InvestmentsTotal Debt

Fair Value per Share = Equity Value ÷ Shares Outstanding

This model was inspired by Prof. Aswath Damodaran's spreadsheet ⬇️fcff2st.xls

Discount Rate (WACC)

Discount Rate

Discount Rate

Discount Rate = Equity Weight * Cost of Equity + Debt Weight * Cost of Debt * (1 - Tax Rate)

Calculated using Weighted Average Cost of Capital (WACC) formula. It represents a firm’s average after-tax cost of capital from all sources, including common stock, preferred stock, bonds, and other forms of debt.

Cost of Equity

Cost of Equity = Risk Free Rate + Beta * Market Premium

The cost of equity is the theoretical rate of return that an equity investment should generate. It is calculated using the CAPM formula.

Cost of Debt

Cost of Debt = Interest Expense / Total Debt

The cost of debt is the effective rate that a company pays on its debt, such as bonds and loans.

Equity & Debt Weights

Debt Weight = Total Debt / (Market Capitalization + Total Debt) = 1 - Equity Weight

The Equity Weight represents the proportion of equity-based financing (Market Capitalization), while the Debt Weight represents the proportion of debt-based financing (Total Debt).


Tax Rate

Tax Rate = Income Tax Expense / Income Before Tax

The overall tax rate paid by the company on its earned income.

↳ Beta

Beta

Beta measures the volatility of a stock's price in relation to the overall stock market. A higher beta indicates greater price fluctuations relative to the market.

↳ Risk Free Rate

Risk Free Rate

The risk-free rate represents the return an investor expects from an absolutely risk-free investment over a specified time period. By default, it is set to the current yield of the U.S. 10-Year Treasury Bond.

↳ Equity Risk Premium

Equity Risk Premium

The market risk premium represents the additional return over the risk-free rate that investors expect for taking on the risks associated with equities.

↳ Tax Rate

Tax Rate

Tax Rate = Income Tax Expense / Income Before Tax

This is the company’s effective tax rate, reflecting the average rate of tax actually paid on its pre-tax earnings (including all statutory, deferred, and non-recurring items).

This rate is used to adjust the after-tax cost of debt, since interest expense is tax-deductible.

Discount Rate

Discount Rate =
Debt Weight × Cost of Debt × (1 − Tax Rate)
+ Equity Weight × Cost of Equity

Historical Years

Historical Years

Number of trailing fiscal years used to compute historical averages/trends that feed the model’s default forecast assumptions (e.g., margins and growth).

Forecast Assumptions

High Growth Years

High Growth Years

Number of years with explicit projections before the model shifts to the terminal (perpetuity) period.

Growth in Perpetuity

Growth in Perpetuity

Long-run constant growth rate used to calculate terminal value after the forecast period.

Revenue Growth Rate

Revenue Growth Rate

Annual % increase in revenue during the forecast period.

EBIT Margin

EBIT Margin

EBIT as a % of revenue; reflects operating profitability and business mix.

Change in Working Capital Margin

Change in Working Capital Margin

Annual change in net working capital as a % of revenue; captures cash tied up (or released) in receivables, inventory, and payables.

  • A negative value represents cash tied up in operations (reduces FCFF).
  • A positive value represents a release of working capital (increases FCFF).
Depreciation and Amortization Margin

Depreciation and Amortization Margin

D&A as a % of revenue; a non-cash expense added back in cash flow, often linked to the asset base.

Capital Expenditure Margin

Capital Expenditure Margin

CapEx as a % of revenue; cash reinvestment required to maintain and grow operations.
