Yahoo Finance A Look At The Fair Value Of Tupperware Brands Corporation (NYSE:TUP)
In this article I am going to calculate the intrinsic value of Tupperware Brands Corporation (NYSE:TUP) using the discounted cash flows (DCF) model. If you want to learn more about this method, the basis for my calculations can be found in detail in the Simply Wall St analysis model. If you are reading this after June 2018 then I highly recommend you check out the latest calculation for Tupperware Brands here.
What’s the value?
I will be 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 perpetual stable growth rate. Firstly, I pulled together the analyst consensus forecast of TUP’s levered free cash flow (FCF) over the next five years and discounted these values at the rate of 11.04%. When estimates weren’t available, I’ve extrapolated the average annual growth rate over the previous five years, capped at a reasonable level. This resulted in a present value of 5-year cash flow of US$860.32M. Want to know how I calculated this value? Take a look at our detailed analysis here.
Above is a visual representation of how TUP’s earnings are expected to move in the future, which should give you an idea of TUP’s outlook. Secondly, I determine the terminal value, which accounts for all the future cash flows after the five years. I think it’s suitable to use the 10-year government bond rate of 2.8% as the steady growth rate, which is rightly below GDP growth, but more towards the conservative side. Discounting the terminal value back five years gives us a present value of US$1.73B.
The total value is the sum of cash flows for the next five years and the discounted terminal value, which results in the Total Equity Value, which in this case is US$2.59B. In the final step we divide the equity value by the number of shares outstanding. This results in an intrinsic value of $50.67, which, compared to the current share price of $43.82, we see that Tupperware Brands is about right, perhaps slightly undervalued at a 13.51% discount to what it is available for right now.
