Our analysis will employ the Discounted Cash Flow (DCF) model. Don't get put off by the jargon, the math behind it is actually quite straightforward. \n We generally believe that a company's value is the present value of all of the cash it will generate in the future. However, a DCF is just one valuation metric among many, and it is not without flaws. For those who are keen learners of equity analysis, the Simply Wall St analysis model here may be something of interest to you. \n View our latest analysis for NEXT \n Crunching the numbers \n We're using the 2-stage growth model, which simply means we take in account two stages of company's growth. In the initial period the company may have a higher growth rate and the second stage is usually assumed to have a stable growth rate. To start off with, we need to estimate the next ten years of cash flows. Where possible we use analyst estimates, but when these aren't available we extrapolate the previous free cash flow (FCF) from the last estimate or reported value. We assume companies with shrinking free cash flow will slow their rate of shrinkage, and that companies with growing free cash flow will see their growth rate slow, over this period. We do this to reflect that growth tends to slow more in the early years than it does in later years. \n Generally we assume that a dollar today is more valuable than a dollar in the future, so we need to discount the sum of these future cash flows to arrive at a present value estimate: \n 10-year free cash flow (FCF) estimate \n\n\n\n\n2021\n2022\n2023\n2024\n2025\n2026\n2027\n2028\n2029\n2030\n\n\n Levered FCF (£, Millions) \nUK£466.5m\nUK£443.9m\nUK£595.7m\nUK£613.3m\nUK£728.0m\nUK£804.7m\nUK£866.4m\nUK£915.5m\nUK£954.6m\nUK£986.0m\n\n\nGrowth Rate Estimate Source\nAnalyst x12\nAnalyst x12\nAnalyst x11\nAnalyst x3\nAnalyst x1\nEst @ 10.53%\nEst @ 7.67%\nEst @ 5.67%\nEst @ 4.27%\nEst @ 3.29%\n\n\n Present Value (£, Millions) Discounted @ 6.7% \nUK£437\nUK£390\nUK£490\nUK£472\nUK£525\nUK£544\nUK£549\nUK£543\nUK£531\nUK£513\n\n\n\n(\"Est\" = FCF growth rate estimated by Simply Wall St)Present Value of 10-year Cash Flow (PVCF) = UK£5.0b\n We now need to calculate the Terminal Value, which accounts for all the future cash flows after this ten year period. The Gordon Growth formula is used to calculate Terminal Value at a future annual growth rate equal to the 5-year average of the 10-year government bond yield of 1.0%. We discount the terminal cash flows to today's value at a cost of equity of 6.7%. \nTerminal Value (TV)= FCF2030 × (1 + g) ÷ (r – g) = UK£986m× (1 + 1.0%) ÷ (6.7%– 1.0%) = UK£17b\nPresent Value of Terminal Value (PVTV)= TV / (1 + r)10= UK£17b÷ ( 1 + 6.7%)10= UK£9.0b\n The total value, or equity value, is then the sum of the present value of the future cash flows, which in this case is UK£14b. In the final step we divide the equity value by the number of shares outstanding. Compared to the current share price of UK£76.1, the company appears quite undervalued at a 31% discount to where the stock price trades currently. The assumptions in any calculation have a big impact on the valuation, so it is better to view this as a rough estimate, not precise down to the last cent. \n\n\n\n  LSE:NXT Discounted Cash Flow February 24th 2021\n \n\n Important assumptions \n The calculation above is very dependent on two assumptions. The first is the discount rate and the other is the cash flows. Part of investing is coming up with your own evaluation of a company's future performance, so try the calculation yourself and check your own assumptions. The DCF also does not consider the possible cyclicality of an industry, or a company's future capital requirements, so it does not give a full picture of a company's potential performance. Given that we are looking at NEXT as potential shareholders, the cost of equity is used as the discount rate, rather than the cost of capital (or weighted average cost of capital, WACC) which accounts for debt. In this calculation we've used 6.7%, which is based on a levered beta of 0.964. Beta is a measure of a stock's volatility, compared to the market as a whole. We get our beta from the industry average beta of globally comparable companies, with an imposed limit between 0.8 and 2.0, which is a reasonable range for a stable business. \n Next Steps: \n Valuation is only one side of the coin in terms of building your investment thesis, and it is only one of many factors that you need to assess for a company. DCF models are not the be-all and end-all of investment valuation. Rather it should be seen as a guide to \"what assumptions need to be true for this stock to be under/overvalued?\" For instance, if the terminal value growth rate is adjusted slightly, it can dramatically alter the overall result.
