2 Industry Overview As an industry Broadcasting and Media is comprised of advertising, publishing, broadcasting & cable TV, and movies & entertainment markets. In 2012 the industry generated $255.1 billion in revenue and grew by 2% but has experienced minimal annual growth since the recession of Although the growth rate has been low the industry has managed to grow during the recession and has a forecasted compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 2.3% for the period, compared to the CAGR of 0.4% for the period. Within the industry the broadcasting and cable TV segment is the most profitable earning about 56% of the overall revenue. The future of the industry is being greatly impacted by technology. Companies have been and need to invest in new technology to be able to serve the consumer in the new and innovated ways that they are looking for. Foreign markets (CAGR: European 2.2% and Asia Pacific 5.6%) are also expected to grow faster over the next five 3 years creating new opportunity to expand. Disney s Strengths Disney has many strengths that can help them grow in the future, the most obvious and enduring is its intrinsic value generated from its strong brand identity. Disney is a huge international company that has raised generations of families. Children today can watch and identify with the same characters (and company that created them) that their grandparents grew up with. Not only have multiple generations grown up with Disney, they also have an idyllic image of the company and prefect to consume their products over others because of it. From a business prospective Disney also has many advantages including the increase in marketing activities. Disney has mastered (and controls) the creating and distributing of content. With an emphasis on kids content Disney is able to produce a product, create 3 OneSource Information Services, Inc. (2013). The Walt Disney Company.

3 buzz, and cross markets through it many channels of distribution. This leads into another one of Disney s strengths: its diverse business operations. Owning many different kinds of content producers and distributors allows Disney to not only cross market and share content it also allows it mitigate market 4 fluctuations in any of its given operations. In 2009 Disney bought Marvel Entertainment for $4 Billion. This has given them the rights to many beloved comic books that has lead to new movie franchises with the possibility of incorporating the comics into theme parks. With these rights Disney has many 5 opportunities to grow in a large comic industry. Disneys Opportunities With the advertising market growing domestically and abroad, Disney has a huge opportunity because in TV and media the main source of revenue is advertising. Disney s broadcasting and cable TV segment accounts for more than half of their overall revenue. This means that Disney should be able to take advantage of the growing advertising market, which will affect its largest operation. Another opportunity is the expanding entertainment and media industry. Disney already has a large presence in the industry that is expected to grow at a compound annual growth rate of 5.7% internationally. Disney has also strategically acquired related businesses that complement their existing segments. By acquiring 6 these companies Disney has created opportunities but also taken away competition in the process. Disney s Challenges While Disney is doing well on many levels there are some challenges to be aware of. The 4 OneSource Information Services, Inc. (2013). Television Broadcasting.

4 industry that they operate in is highly competitive and the pressure has only increased with recent and developing technological changes and consumer preferences. Disney s intellectual property is also vulnerable; they rely on patents, copyrights, trademarks and others to ensure that their content and technical advances are not stolen and replicated. Disney is also subject to many US (FCC) and international regulations on their entertainment networks and programs. Finally Disney has a lot of total and long term debt. This not only could affect its ability to raise additional capital but also ties up a lot of operating cash flow in payment of interest and principal payments. Cash flow then cannot be used for 7 other operations or worse make Disney unable to pay its debt obligations.

DuPont Analysis ROE = Net Profit Margin x Asset Turnover x Equity Multiplier % = 13.44% x 0.56 x % = 11.76% x 0.57 x % = 10.41% x 0.55 x 1.84 As the ROE is broken down using the above table, it can be determined that the net profit margin fluctuated toward positive grown over the span of three years. We can also identify the stability of the 10
11 asset turnover ratio, as they varied only slightly over the years, 0.56 being most recent, an average of the previous two years. The equity multiplier is shown to have increased between the years 2010 and 2011, but then decreased slightly to 1.88 in 2012, yet still higher than in This analysis helps show how to understand the breakdown of the ROE, leading up to the final percentage of it per year. Analysis of Firm Riskiness While Disney does not face the same types of risks that other corporations do, such as fear of an industry take over by a competitor, they do face other types of risk: Maintaining the level of success that the Disney corporation has reached over the years is a top risk for the company. Due to recent U.S. economic conditions, like many other corporations, Disney runs the risk of facing possible profit loss. On the flip side, they may benefit from the conditions, depending on the way that the economy rises or falls. For some of it s services, it has been noted in Disney s 2009 SEC filing that there has been a decrease in demand as prices increase. These fluctuations have also resulted in a decrease of demand for the entertainment side of the corporation, as luxuries become less and less of a feasible thing for many families. As with many products and services, the corporations that supply them face the risk of it s consumers simply losing interest, and Disney is no exception to this. While it can be argued that their services are classic or even timeless, there is no way to predict if the public will remain loyal to their current preferences of products. At the same time, Disney s consumer base is not limited to the United States, and therefore they rely heavily on demand from the rest of the world to continue to engage in business with them. Adaptation of the corporations customer base is vital to Disney s success, and they have been conscious of how important this is. 11
12 Like the risk that many newspapers, magazines and tabloid companies are facing today, the adaptation to constant changes in technology is crucial to recognize and stay on top of for Disney. Their entertainment branches pride themselves on being able to adapt to these changes, and use them to their advantage as a way to differentiate themselves from competitors. The risk that many companies are facing, such as print going completely digital, is one that Disney faces as well, but that it also has the tools and the staff to continue to progress forward as technology does as well. Disney s customers know what to expect of the corporation, and the company recognizes that straying off the path of their business strategy even the slightest may result in loss of success and/or profitability. While attempting to maintain the integrity of their corporation, Disney continues to face risks and pressures of their competitors in the respect of cable networks. The competition to keep viewers while simultaneously trying to figure out how to outdo other companies who are seemingly offering the same products proves extremely difficult. Audiences will ultimately decide the fate of these companies by using their selections of products as their voices. It can be concluded that Disney, like virtually all corporations, face risk. While technology is rapidly changing and developing these companies must along with it, and the way that Disney is handling it seems almost effortless. Whether it be their efforts to communicate with their consumer base, or the validity of their products, the corporation thrives on keeping up and exceeding expectations. As times 12
13 change, riskiness does as well. Risks today can make or break major corporations, and while walking the line of taking a chance is risky, it has proven to pay off for Disney. This information can be used to perform valuation while looking deeper into the numbers. As the corporations profits and revenues continue to increase, it can be concluded that Disney s customers are remaining interested and loyal. Given the current state of the economy, many are struggling to find the means to participate in the products and services that Disney has to offer, but it has not yet proven to harm the corporation to the standard that they will no longer be successful. Beta and Industry While Disney proves to be the leader of the pack when it comes to their entertainment strategies and their domination among other companies, it is also calculated to be a relatively risky stock for investment. That being said, as we ve discussed, the high risk of investment may also mean a high rate of return. It s beta is listed differently on several sources, such as 1.32 (Google Finance), 1.21 (Yahoo! Finance), and 1.29 (Reuters), which closely resembles, and in some cases mirrors our calculation of Using a risk free rate of 3.81%, which is the US Treasury bond rate over 30 years as of November 14, 2013, this was the closest rate that resembled a firm having unlimited life. Further, as we discussed in class, we chose to use 5% for a market risk premium which led us to our exact beta answer of After using a regression line to determine this statistic, along with 60 data points, the following table demonstrates the totals. Beta Calculation 13
14 Firm Valuation Valuation Using Multiples In order to value The Walt Disney Company s stock, we initially used the valuation using multiples method. This method uses the industry s P/E ratio and the firm s Earnings Per Share (EPS) in order to determine the company s current stock price. We found the Television Broadcasting industry s P/E ratio to be 10.9 and Disney s EPS to be Next, we used the formula P/E = Stock Price/EPS and solved for Stock Price, resulting in a current stock price of $ Dividend Discount Model Our second method of calculating Disney s current stock price was to use the Dividend Discount Model. In order to use this method, we first needed to find the following variables: D 1, r E, and g. In order to find r E, we utilized the CAPM model (r i = r f + RP m B i ). For the risk free rate of return (r f ), we found the rate of return on a 30 year U.S. Treasury Bond, which was 3.81% as of October 14, We chose a market risk premium of 5% based on class discussion and because we received a positive stock price at that rate. Finally, we computed beta through a regression analysis of returns 12 Yahoo! Finance. (2013). Industry Center Broadcasting TV. 13 Nov Retrieved from 13 Yahoo! Finance. (2013). The Walt Disney Company (DIS). 13 Nov Retrieved from 14 Bloomberg.com. (2013). United States Government Bonds: US Treasury Yields. 12 Nov Retrieved from bonds/government bonds/us 14
15 using historical stock prices for both The Walt Disney Company and the S&P 500. We then calculated the returns for each of the monthly stock prices for the past five years and ran a regression 16 analysis, from which we determined our beta (x variable coefficient) to be Then, we plugged these variables into the CAPM model to find r i. We found that r i = (5 x 1.32), or r i = 10.41%. Next, we needed to determine g, or the company s dividend growth rate. First, we found historical growth rates for the past nine years and used the formula D 1 = D 0 (1+g) in order to look at 17 past dividend growth rates. From this method the growth rates for 2012, 2011, and 2010 were 25%, 50%, and 14%, respectively. The next method was to look up analyst predictions of Disney s dividend growth rates. Bloomberg estimated that Disney s 5 year dividend growth rate is 16.47%. Finally, we used the Plowback Ratio and Disney s ROE (g = ROE([Net Income Dividends]/Net Income)) as another method to estimate g. With this method, we found that the values for g in 2012, 2011, and 2010 were 11.58%, 10.84%, and 8.10%, respectively. Based on these calculations, we estimated that Disney s dividend growth rate is 16.47% because the first method we used yielded growth rates much higher than that (50% and 25%), and the Plowback Ratio method yielded rates lower than that (11.58%, 10.84%, and 8.10%), so 16.47% is reasonably between the results of those two methods. In addition, we were able to find two reliable sources with the exact same estimate of 16.47%. This growth rate should also be high because Disney is an innovative company that is involved in television and media, and we expect it only to grow in the future. Additionally, Disney continued to grow during the recent recession, displaying how the company is still in high demand and will continue to grow even more once the economy strengthens again. 15 Yahoo! Finance. (2013). S&P Nov Retrieved from 16 Exhibit A 17 Exhibit B 15
16 After calculating r i and g, we were able to solve for D 1 using the formula D 1 = D 0 (1+g). We found that D 1 = $1.24 because D 1 =.75( ). Finally, we were able to compute the stock price using the formula P 0 = D 1 /(r i g). In this case, however, we used the economy s growth rate for g instead of the company s dividend growth rate. The predicted global economic growth rate over the 18 next five years is 2.8%. Therefore, we were able to solve for today s stock price using P 0 = 1.24/( ), where P 0 = $ Calculation of Intrinsic Stock Price Finally, we needed to find a weighted average of the stock price that we received from the valuation using multiples method and the Dividend Discount Model. We decided to weight the price that we received from the valuation using multiples method at 30% of our final stock price and the DDM price as 70% of our final stock price. We chose these weights because the DDM takes into account more aspects of the firm when calculating the stock price, such as the estimated dividend growth rate, its last dividends, the estimated rate of return, and the economy s projected growth rate. The valuation using multiples method, however, only uses the industry s P/E ratio and the firm s EPS, and we believe that more elements of the firm should be considered with valuing its stock. With these weights (P 0 = (.3*36.84)+(.7*16.29)), we found an average intrinsic stock price of $ Conclusion & Recommendation After analyzing Disney s financial statements, firm riskiness and defining the firm s value in regards to dividends we can see that Disney is overvalued. The market value as of November 16, was $70.00, taken from Yahoo! Finance. The intrinsic value that we derived was $22.45 (please reference Calculation of Intrinsic Stock Price). With that being stated, it is clear that on the 18 The Economist: Intelligence Unit. (2013). Global Forecasting Service. Retrieved from 19 Yahoo! Finance (2013). The Walt Disney Company (DIS).

17 outside Disney is very overvalued and most would think to save their shares and invest in another company. However, Disney itself is a very viable company it holds the nostalgic element from many generations and most customers are loyal to the Disney brand. Also, Disney does not have a one framed mind set, they not only have the fantastic theme parks but also own ABC Family and 20 ESPN, company s that may be overlooked by the average investor. Another seemingly important bonus is the fact that during the 2008 recession, The Walt Disney Company was able to stay positive and do well during this time. Although technically overvalued, this is a trusted company with evidence to support. 20 Columbia Journalism Review. The Walt Disney Company. Web. 16 Nov Retrieved from 17
