Discounted Cash Flow (DCF) Valuation
- Categorized in: Valuation
Taking an integrated financial model of the target company, participants calculate the unleveraged free cash flows. A detailed ratio analysis establishes the reasonableness of the forecasts and identify when the target company reaches steady state. Participants calculate the terminal value using the Gordon growth model and multiple methods. The cash flows are discounted using WACC calculation and a mid-year adjustment is made.
Once the valuation is complete, participants perform several checks on the analysis using key ratios and sensitivity and scenario analysis.
