1 SESSION 5 Pro forma forecast General procedure Example: Movie Night base scenario Variations: Movie Night scenarios 2 and 3 REVIEW OF SESSION 4 What is the relation between NI and CFO? Between EBITDA and FCF? How does a firm s life cycle relate to its SCF? To its free cash flow measure? What discount rate should be used in FCFU valuation model? Why? True or false: a firm s intrinsic equity value can be proxied by its discounted FCFU value. 1

2 PRO FORMA DEFINITION Pro forma ( as if ) financial statements are those statements prepared under a particular set of assumptions (prepared as if a set of outcomes were to occur). Needed: assumptions about firm performance (sales growth, cost structure, asset utilizations, etc.) Needed: assumptions about investment and financing strategies. PRO FORMA DEFINITION Why prepare pro forma? To supplement historical analyses. If the firm continues with current strategies, what might happen? If they change strategies, what might happen? As part of due diligence (e.g., highly leveraged transaction, assess credit worthiness) To value the enterprise 2

3 PROCEDURE: Overview of main steps: Forecast sales Forecast profitability of sales Forecast the assets that are necessary to produce sales Forecast desired level of debt to finance assets Plug owners equity that is necessary to finance the remaining assets by Paying dividends and/or repurchasing shares or Issuing stock PROCEDURE: FLOW CHART The forecasting process Forecast sales Forecast operating margins Operating expenses Interest expense Tax expense Forecast turnover Operating assets and liabilities Forecast leverage Retained earnings and contributed capital Pro-forma Income Statement Pro-forma Balance Sheet Pro-forma SCF Free cash flow valuation 3

4 PROCEDURE: GENERAL PRINCIPLES Start with sales A logical starting place is a forecast of sales growth This is logical because sales are the basis for both the level of activity (balance sheet) and the profitability (income statement) of the firm. This forecast can be based on Firm s strategy and historical trends Industry forecasts Macroeconomic forecasts PROCEDURE: GENERAL PRINCIPLES Use sales and ratios to forecast other items sales + gross margin ratio to forecast cost of goods sold sales + receivables turnover to forecast accounts receivable balance sales + gross margin ratio + inventory turnover to forecast inventory balance In each case, forecast the ratio using most recent period, historical trends, industry averages, etc., or some combination 4

5 PROCEDURE: GENERAL PRINCIPLES In some cases you will have no independent thoughts about how an item will behave in the future For example other assets In those cases, we often simply let the item grow at the sales growth rate PROCEDURE: GENERAL PRINCIPLES Make sure the statements articulate The relationships among the financial statements must be maintained For example Income = Revenue Expense ΔRE = Income Dividends ΔOE = ΔRE + Stock Issued Stock Repurchased ΔCash = Bottom line on statement of cash flows Changes in various balance sheet accounts must be equal to line items on the statement of cash flows 5

6 PROCEDURE: GENERAL PRINCIPLES You ll have to plug someplace, make sure it is reasonable Eventually, you will have to back into or plug someplace so that the financial statements articulate Make sure that the amount that was plugged makes some sense. If it does not, go back and make changes in other forecasts to insure that all forecasted items pass a reasonableness test Typical accounts with plugs involved are PPE and shareholder equity account. MOVIE NIGHT PRO FORMA Base scenario: using cash as the plug account. What is excess cash? Scenario 2: using equity account as the plug account, making assumptions what to do with excess cash. Scenario 3: using debt as the plug account. 6

8 PROCEDURE: FINAL WORDS The main assumptions are related to Growth the sales growth rate Profitability the ratios of cost of goods sold and selling and administrative expense to sales Efficiency the days of inventory on hand, accounts receivable outstanding, accounts payable outstanding, and the fixed asset turnover ratio Leverage the percentage of assets funded by debt PROCEDURE: FINAL WORDS Length and detail of the pro forma depends on the context If the purpose is for estimate equity intrinsic value, forecast until firm s equilibrium steady state (which is typically assumed to be 5 years for a mature firm). It is a good practice to calculate the forecast ratios and compare them with historical trends and industry peers to assess sensibility. 8

9 PRO FORMA PROCEDURE A quick recap: What is the first item to be forecasted in pro forma forecasting? 2 nd item? 3 rd? What are the key assumptions? What s the typical length of forecasting period? What are the good practices/habits in pro forma forecasting? IN PREPARATION FOR SESSION 6 Royal Caribbean due Submit write-up in hard copy Need to print out your pro forma (as exhibits) in hardcopy. Submit spreadsheet online Key things to pay attention to in RC case: Before jumping into pro forma, apply what we learned so far analyze RC. You will find it helpful for your pro forma analysis. Develop a framework to forecast Royal Caribbean s sales The case contains a lot of information to help you forecast sales Make your own assumptions; be ready to justify them Treat Royal Caribbean as a practice case for your final project 9
