Corporate Valuation Methodologies and Valuation modelling (22 March 2018, Thurs) Module 2 How can you tell if a company is undervalued or overvalued? Is the current stock price the only measure of value? Why would one company command a higher or lower premium than its direct competitor? This course takes a practical, tangible, and non-theoretical approach to examining how corporations are valued and the major analytical tools that are used. Go beyond the academic theory of financial ratios and apply fundamental analysis and real-world methods of evaluating a company s intrinsic value. Gain insight into relative valuation methodologies (trading comps, deal comps) to fundamental valuation (discounted cash flow analysis, break-up / sum of the parts valuation). Coverage goes beyond the academic theory of financial ratios to the practical application of fundamental analysis, offering alternative, real-world methods of evaluating a company's intrinsic value. The second half of this course builds on the first half and is hands-on, interactive and Excel-based. Apply the concepts learned in the discussion portion and perform relative valuation modeling techniques in Excel. Build a quick and dirty trading comps analysis by inputting historical results and analyst projections for comparable companies and calculating current standalone market valuation multiples. Then, construct a detailed comprehensive reference range analysis that quantifies valuation methodologies. Crystallize and appreciate the relationship between capital structure and enterprise value, equity value and price per share. Finally, build and update dynamic football field to graphically summarize valuation metrics. These tools are useful for any financial professional interested in analyzing a company. Corporate Valuation and Corporate Finance Fundamentals: Enterprise Value (TEV): what is the correct treatment of minority interest and capital leases from a standalone valuation aspect vs. credit perspective vs. change of control What is the relevance of capital structure and leverage on a company s value? Why and how is corporate finance so critical to managing a firm s profitability? Why is P/E the root of all evil in valuation? Learn the correct way to use multiples Why are P/E ratios misunderstood and what other ratios are more important? Utilize the correct numerator for multiples and calculating implied value Valuation Modeling: Construct discounted cash flow analysis by estimating unlevered free cash flow (FCFF) Discuss proxy methods for calculating working capital without full blown BS projection Terminal Value estimation: what are the differences between the EBITDA multiple and perpetuity growth approaches and what are the implications on value? Learn subtle nuances including the proper CF figure in perpetuity growth models Calculate from TEV down to equity value and ultimately down to stock price per share Build a basic, quick and dirty, back-of-the-envelope trading comps analysis Input historical results and analyst projections for public comparable companies Construct relative valuation analysis and calculate current valuation multiples Build reference range that quantifies fundamental / relative valuation methodologies Crystallize and appreciate capital structure relationship of TEV, equity value and price Build and update dynamic football field to graphically summarize valuation metrics Analyze, discuss, compare and contrast valuation results Prerequisite: Intermediate proficiency using Excel and a solid grasp of basic accounting fundamentals and an understanding of basic finance concepts are required. **IMPORTANT PLEASE NOTE** To maximize the educational value of this program, we strongly recommend that you have an intermediate understanding of Excel.

VC Investing : Private Company Valuation & Participating Preferred Securities (23 March 2018, Fri) Module 3 In the first part of this course, we discuss the complex nuances associated with analyzing and valuing emerging markets and private companies. We dive deep into the details and concepts deeply imbedded with valuation of large publicly traded and listed companies and take it to next level by applying it to companies and regions with very sparse publicly available data. Learn nuances of adjusting for DCF valuation, WACC analysis when no data exists, how to select and adjust peer comparables when no good comp exists. While there is certainly no magic bullet to the tough questions and lack of information, there are techniques and best practices to get us as close as possible. Learning objectives include: fundamental & DCF valuation nuances (adjustments to Gordon growth); WACC and cost of component capital nuances (adjustments to cost of debt and equity and beta); review of basic valuation methodologies, focusing on relative valuation multiples and ratios and tacking on private company discounts; emerging markets case study and real-life valuation nuances when data simply doesn t exist. The second part of this course involves modeling out early stage investment securities waterfalls. When investing in earlier stage companies, whether start-up, growth or mezzanine stage investing, there is a fine balance between incentivizing the newest round of investors injecting capital and providing enough returns for earlier round investors, while still motivating management to strive for mutual alignment of economic interests. Investors desire downside protection while craving equity upside. Thus, the participating preference securities evolved from a blend of common stock with equity upside & voting rights to debt with accruing interest and priority of liquidation. In this course, learn how to structure, and model out such hybrid securities commonly used in VC and earlier stage investing. Specifically, in our liquidation waterfall modeling, we will model out: Modeling Preferred Equity and Multiple Class Share Positions: structuring returns for each equity participant and class/series of investors Equity Assumptions: capitalization tables, pre-money vs. post-money calculations Liquidation Preference: minimum return threshold based on pre-determined multiple and Dividends: Cash pay vs PIK; compounding vs simple; cumulative vs. non-cumulative Participation Rights: investors shall participate on equity upside based on fully diluted preference protection Participation Caps: the crux of the analysis focuses on the capped upside of the investor and re-distribution of fully diluted ownership percentage for remaining investors it gets complicated and that s why it s called a waterfall! Conversion: complicate the analysis by adding in a conversion option for all investors to further participate in upsid final valuation/liquidation amount Management Options & Warrants: incorporate management options in allocation of final management proceeds based on cashless converts Prerequisite: Basic proficiency using Excel, a solid grasp of basic accounting fundamentals and an understanding of basic finance & valuation principles are required. **IMPORTANT PLEASE NOTE** To maximize the educational value of this program, we strongly recommend that you have an intermediate understanding of Excel.
