I ate all the protein snacks I could stomach in a day. I'd rather be weak.
There is no escaping the sense that we are living in the era of peak protein, a moment in time in which reverence for the macronutrient borders on religion. Protein proselytizers have been around for years, of course. There were weightlifters and their murky shakes spiked with GNC powder, then the carb-shunning South Beach-ers of the early aughts.

A Look At The Intrinsic Value Of GrainCorp Limited (ASX:GNC)
Key Insights The projected fair value for GrainCorp is AU$8.73 based on 2 Stage Free Cash Flow to Equity With AU$7.48 share price, GrainCorp appears to be trading close to its estimated fair value Analyst price target for GNC is AU$8.83, which is 1.1% above our fair value estimate In this article we are going to estimate the intrinsic value of GrainCorp Limited (ASX:GNC) by taking the forecast future cash flows of the company and discounting them back to today's value. We will use the Discounted Cash Flow (DCF) model on this occasion. Don't get put off by the jargon, the math behind it is actually quite straightforward. Companies can be valued in a lot of ways, so we would point out that a DCF is not perfect for every situation. For those who are keen learners of equity analysis, the Simply Wall St analysis model here may be something of interest to you. We've found 21 US stocks that are forecast to pay a dividend yield of over 6% next year. See the full list for free. The Method We are going to use a two-stage DCF model, which, as the name states, takes into account two stages of growth. The first stage is generally a higher growth period which levels off heading towards the terminal value, captured in the second 'steady growth' period. To begin with, we have to get estimates of the next ten years of cash flows. Where possible we use analyst estimates, but when these aren't available we extrapolate the previous free cash flow (FCF) from the last estimate or reported value. We assume companies with shrinking free cash flow will slow their rate of shrinkage, and that companies with growing free cash flow will see their growth rate slow, over this period. We do this to reflect that growth tends to slow more in the early years than it does in later years. A DCF is all about the idea that a dollar in the future is less valuable than a dollar today, and so the sum of these future cash flows is then discounted to today's value: 2026 2027 2028 2029 2030 2031 2032 2033 2034 2035 Levered FCF (A$, Millions) AU$123.2m AU$111.1m AU$107.0m AU$114.0m AU$112.8m AU$113.0m AU$114.1m AU$115.9m AU$118.2m AU$120.9m Growth Rate Estimate Source Analyst x2 Analyst x3 Analyst x1 Analyst x1 Est @ -1.06% Est @ 0.15% Est @ 0.99% Est @ 1.58% Est @ 1.99% Est @ 2.28% Present Value (A$, Millions) Discounted @ 8.0% AU$114 AU$95.2 AU$84.9 AU$83.7 AU$76.7 AU$71.1 AU$66.5 AU$62.5 AU$59.0 AU$55.9 ("Est" = FCF growth rate estimated by Simply Wall St)Present Value of 10-year Cash Flow (PVCF) = AU$770m After calculating the present value of future cash flows in the initial 10-year period, we need to calculate the Terminal Value, which accounts for all future cash flows beyond the first stage. 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 2.9%. We discount the terminal cash flows to today's value at a cost of equity of 8.0%. Terminal Value (TV)= FCF2035 × (1 + g) ÷ (r – g) = AU$121m× (1 + 2.9%) ÷ (8.0%– 2.9%) = AU$2.5b Present Value of Terminal Value (PVTV)= TV / (1 + r)10= AU$2.5b÷ ( 1 + 8.0%)10= AU$1.1b The total value, or equity value, is then the sum of the present value of the future cash flows, which in this case is AU$1.9b. The last step is to then divide the equity value by the number of shares outstanding. Relative to the current share price of AU$7.5, the company appears about fair value at a 14% 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. The Assumptions We would point out that the most important inputs to a discounted cash flow are the discount rate and of course the actual 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 GrainCorp 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 8.0%, which is based on a levered beta of 1.171. 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. View our latest analysis for GrainCorp SWOT Analysis for GrainCorp Strength Debt is well covered by earnings. Dividend is in the top 25% of dividend payers in the market. Weakness Earnings declined over the past year. Opportunity Annual earnings are forecast to grow faster than the Australian market. Current share price is below our estimate of fair value. Threat Debt is not well covered by operating cash flow. Dividends are not covered by cash flow. Annual revenue is expected to decline over the next 3 years. Moving On: Although the valuation of a company is important, it shouldn't be the only metric you look at when researching a company. It's not possible to obtain a foolproof valuation with a DCF model. Preferably you'd apply different cases and assumptions and see how they would impact the company's valuation. For instance, if the terminal value growth rate is adjusted slightly, it can dramatically alter the overall result. For GrainCorp, we've put together three pertinent elements you should assess: Risks: You should be aware of the 4 warning signs for GrainCorp (1 doesn't sit too well with us!) we've uncovered before considering an investment in the company.
