An Intrinsic Calculation For SD Guthrie Berhad (KLSE:SDG) Suggests It's 48% Undervalued

Using the 2 Stage Free Cash Flow to Equity, SD Guthrie Berhad fair value estimate is RM8.78 SD Guthrie Berhad is estimated to be 48% undervalued based on current share price of RM4.60 The RM5.09 analyst price target for SDG is 42% less than our estimate of fair value How far off is SD Guthrie Berhad (KLSE:SDG) from its intrinsic value? Using the most recent financial data, we'll take a look at whether the stock is fairly priced by estimating the company's future cash flows and discounting them to their present value. We will take advantage of the Discounted Cash Flow (DCF) model for this purpose. Don't get put off by the jargon, the math behind it is actually quite straightforward. Remember though, that there are many ways to estimate a company's value, and a DCF is just one method. Anyone interested in learning a bit more about intrinsic value should have a read of the Simply Wall St analysis model. Our free stock report includes 2 warning signs investors should be aware of before investing in SD Guthrie Berhad. Read for free now. 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. 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: 2025 2026 2027 2028 2029 2030 2031 2032 2033 2034 Levered FCF (MYR, Millions) RM1.70b RM2.00b RM2.45b RM2.79b RM3.09b RM3.36b RM3.61b RM3.83b RM4.03b RM4.23b Growth Rate Estimate Source Analyst x3 Analyst x3 Analyst x2 Est @ 14.07% Est @ 10.93% Est @ 8.73% Est @ 7.19% Est @ 6.11% Est @ 5.36% Est @ 4.83% Present Value (MYR, Millions) Discounted @ 8.3% RM1.6k RM1.7k RM1.9k RM2.0k RM2.1k RM2.1k RM2.1k RM2.0k RM2.0k RM1.9k ("Est" = FCF growth rate estimated by Simply Wall St)Present Value of 10-year Cash Flow (PVCF) = RM19b We now need to calculate the Terminal Value, which accounts for all the future cash flows after this ten year period. For a number of reasons a very conservative growth rate is used that cannot exceed that of a country's GDP growth. In this case we have used the 5-year average of the 10-year government bond yield (3.6%) to estimate future growth. In the same way as with the 10-year 'growth' period, we discount future cash flows to today's value, using a cost of equity of 8.3%. Terminal Value (TV)= FCF2034 × (1 + g) ÷ (r – g) = RM4.2b× (1 + 3.6%) ÷ (8.3%– 3.6%) = RM92b Present Value of Terminal Value (PVTV)= TV / (1 + r)10= RM92b÷ ( 1 + 8.3%)10= RM41b The total value, or equity value, is then the sum of the present value of the future cash flows, which in this case is RM61b. In the final step we divide the equity value by the number of shares outstanding. Compared to the current share price of RM4.6, the company appears quite undervalued at a 48% discount to where the stock price trades currently. Valuations are imprecise instruments though, rather like a telescope - move a few degrees and end up in a different galaxy. Do keep this in mind. Now 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 SD Guthrie Berhad 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 8.3%, which is based on a levered beta of 0.800. 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. Check out our latest analysis for SD Guthrie Berhad Strength Debt is not viewed as a risk. Weakness Earnings growth over the past year underperformed the Food industry. Dividend is low compared to the top 25% of dividend payers in the Food market. Opportunity Trading below our estimate of fair value by more than 20%. Threat Dividends are not covered by cash flow. Annual earnings are forecast to decline for the next 3 years. Whilst important, the DCF calculation is only one of many factors that you need to assess for a company. The DCF model is not a perfect stock valuation tool. Instead the best use for a DCF model is to test certain assumptions and theories to see if they would lead to the company being undervalued or overvalued. For instance, if the terminal value growth rate is adjusted slightly, it can dramatically alter the overall result. Why is the intrinsic value higher than the current share price?
