DISCOUNTED CASH FLOW (2 STAGE FREE CASH FLOW TO EQUITY)
The calculations below outline how an intrinsic value for Spectrum Global Solutions is arrived at by discounting future cash flows to their present value. We use analyst's estimates of cash flows going forward 5 years.
See our documentation to learn about this calculation.
5 year cash flow forecast
2018 2019 2020 2021 2022
Levered FCF (USD, Millions) $2.31 $2.74 $3.24 $3.79 $4.40
Source Extrapolated @ (20%, capped from 87.24%) Extrapolated @ (19%, capped from 87.24%) Extrapolated @ (18%, capped from 87.24%) Extrapolated @ (17%, capped from 87.24%) Extrapolated @ (16%, capped from 87.24%)
Present Value
Discounted (@ 12.08%) $2.06 $2.18 $2.30 $2.40 $2.48
Present value of next 5 years cash flows:
$11
Terminal Value
Terminal Value = FCF2022 × (1 + g) ÷ (Discount Rate – g)
Terminal Value = $4 × (1 + 2.47%) ÷ (12.08% – 2.47%)
Terminal value based on the Perpetuity Method where growth (g) = 2.47%:
$47
Present value of terminal value:
$26
Equity Value
Equity Value (Total value) = Present value of next 5 years cash flows + terminal value
$38 = $11 + $26
Value = Total value / Shares Outstanding ($38 / 461)
Discount to Share Price
Value per share (USD): $0.08
Current discount (share price of $0.01): 86.03%
Estimate of Discount Rate
The discount rate, or required rate of return, is estimated by calculating the Cost of Equity.
Discount rate = Cost of Equity = Risk Free Rate + (Levered Beta * Equity Risk Premium)
Discount rate = 12.08% = 2.47% + (1.277 * 7.53%)
Estimate of Bottom Up Beta
The Levered Beta is the Unlevered Beta adjusted for financial leverage. It is limited to 0.8 to 2.0 (practical range for a stable firm). Note the market value of equity is used not the book value ($2,671,956).
Levered Beta = Unlevered beta (1 + (1- tax rate) (Debt/Equity))
1.277 = 0.678 (1 + (1- 2.7%) (90.76%))
Levered Beta used in calculation = 1.277
Assumptions
The risk free rate of 2.47% is from the 10 year government bond rate in USD.
The bottom-up beta is estimated by analysing other companies in the same industry.
The Equity Risk Premium is calculated by subtracting the risk free rate from the market return premium (7.53%) (source: Buffet).
The dividend discount model is automatically used for companies in the following industries: Banks, Insurance, Real Estate Investment Trusts (REITs), Diversified Financial Services and Capital Markets.
