The boring details
All amounts in millions | Figures |
Enterprise Value: | 1,918 |
Net Debt (Long-term borrowings less cash): | 1,030 |
Equity Value: | 2,033 |
Number of Shares Outstanding: | 1,325,000,000 |
Calculated value per share: | $1.71 |
Enterprise Value is the present value of the post-tax cash flows for a business into the future.

Where:
- C1, C2, C3 - the cash flow in period 1, 2, 3, ...
- r - the discount rate
To capture the cash flows into the future a terminal value is calculated via a perpetuity calculation -
based on the final years forecast post-tax free cash flow.

Where:
- Cn - the cash flow in the final forecast period.
- LTG - the long-term growth rate
- r - the discount rate
- g - the terminal growth rate
The Capital Asset Pricing Model (CAPM) is used to determine the equity component in the discount rate.

Where:
- rt - the risk free rate
- t - the tax rate
- B - the beta of the company
- MRP - the Market Risk Premium
Valuecruncher uses an estimate of Weighted Average Cost of Capital (WACC) to determine the discount rate in the calculation.

Assumptions
Revenue: Reuters aggregates seven analysts covering $GFF.NZ and the mean estimates of 2009 revenues are A$2.77 billion. For our analysis we have used A$2.75 billion in 2009, A$2.85 billion in 2010 and A$3.0 billion in 2011.
Profitability: We have used an EBITDA margin of 14.5% in 2009 rising to 15.5% in 2011. Reuters don’t list an EBITD margin for $GFF.NZ.
Capital Expenditure: We have assumed capital expenditures of A$90.0 million in 2009, A$120 million in 2010, A$85 million in 2011 and then A$75 million per annum moving forward.
Discount Rate: 9.0%. The PwC New Zealand cost of capital report does not list $GFF.NZ but has the wider New Zealand market at 9.5%. We believe a discount rate in the 8-10% range is appropriate. We have chosen the middle of this range.
Terminal Growth Rate: 1.0%.
