2.5 FCFF DCF Valuation

Valuation basis: This research model follows a five-year, unlevered FCFF DCF. It starts from reported annual operating inputs, forecasts revenue and operating cash conversion under an explicit mechanical policy, discounts FCFF at WACC, applies a Gordon-growth terminal value, and bridges enterprise value to an indicative common-equity value per share. It is an analytical estimate rather than a recommendation or personalised target price.

Step 1 — Forecast Operating Profit and NOPAT

Reported operating input Value
Revenue $28.44B
Prior annual revenue $33.66B
EBIT $2.96B
Tax rate 21.40%
NOPAT = EBIT × (1 − tax rate) $2.33B
Forecast start-growth basis -10.00%
Forecast policy latest reported annual revenue growth, bounded to -10.00% / 15.00%

Step 2 — Calculate FCFF

Current FCFF building block Value
NOPAT $2.33B
Add: depreciation & amortisation $827.40M
Less: capital expenditure -$1.39B
Less/(add): working-capital cash-flow movement $718.80M
Current unlevered FCFF $2.49B

Explicit FCFF forecast

Forecast year Revenue growth NOPAT D&A Capex Change in NWC FCFF Present value
1 -10.00% $2.10B $744.66M -$1.25B $646.92M $2.24B $2.14B
2 -6.88% $1.95B $693.46M -$1.04B $602.44M $2.20B $1.93B
3 -3.75% $1.88B $667.46M -$893.01M $579.85M $2.23B $1.78B
4 -0.63% $1.87B $663.29M -$775.36M $576.23M $2.33B $1.70B
5 2.50% $1.91B $679.87M -$679.87M $590.63M $2.50B $1.67B

Step 3 — Determine the Discount Rate (WACC)

WACC input Value
Risk-free rate 4.71%
Equity risk premium assumption 5.50%
Beta 0.98
Cost of equity 10.13%
Pre-tax cost of debt 7.71%
WACC 9.37%
WACC validation within standard range

Step 4 — Estimate Terminal Value

Terminal-value input Value
Perpetuity growth rate 2.50%
Terminal value $37.37B
Implied terminal EV / EBITDA 12.00x
Terminal value as % of enterprise value 72.13%

Step 5 — Discount Cash Flows to Enterprise Value

Enterprise-value component Value
Present value of explicit FCFF $9.23B
Present value of terminal value $23.88B
Indicated enterprise value $33.11B
Discounting convention mid-year for explicit FCFF; terminal value discounted at year-end five

Step 6 — Convert Enterprise Value to Equity Value

Equity bridge Value
Indicated enterprise value $33.11B
Less: gross interest-bearing debt $15.64B
Add: cash and equivalents $9.52B
Add: affiliate investments $0.00
Less: minority interests $0.00
Indicated common equity value $26.99B

Step 7 — Calculate Indicative Value Per Share

Per-share output Value
Shares used 526,800,000.00
Share-count basis reported diluted weighted-average shares
Current market price $128.71
DCF indicative value per share $51.23
Indicative value vs. market price -60.20%

Perpetuity growth is below WACC pass
WACC is within the configured operating-company range pass
Terminal-year FCFF is positive pass

Data lineage: Yahoo Finance public market and reported-statement data; retrieval timestamp: 2026-08-18 17:45:09.625947 UTC; latest reported fiscal period: 2025-12-31 00:00:00. Default assumptions: five-year forecast, mid-year discounting for explicit FCFF, a maximum 2.50% perpetuity-growth rate below both WACC and the risk-free rate, historical operating-ratio persistence, and capex convergence to D&A by year five. No sell-side consensus or management guidance is substituted for reported inputs. This is research and analysis only, not personalized financial advice.
