Question
Following are forecasts of sales, net operating profit after tax (NOPAT), and net operating assets (NOA) as of February 26, 2011, for Best Buy, Inc. Refer to the information in the table to answer the following requirements.
Answer the following requirements assuming a discount rate (WACC) of 11%, a terminal period growth rate of 1%, common shares outstanding of 410.5 million, net nonoperating obligations (NNO) of $801 million and noncontrolling interest (NCI) on the balance sheet of $690 million.
(a) Estimate the value of a share of Best Buy common stock using the residual operating income (ROPI) model as of February 26, 2011.
Rounding Instructions:
Round your answer to the nearest whole number except for the discount factors, shares outstanding, and the stock price per share.
Round the discount factors to five decimal places, common shares outstanding to one decimal place, and the stock price to two decimal places.
Use your rounded answers for subsequent calculations.
Do not use negative signs with any of your answers below.
(b) Assume Best Buy (BBY) stock closed at $43.47 on April 1, 2011. How does your valuation estimate compare with this closing price? What do you believe are some reasons for the difference?
Our stock price estimate is lower than the BBY market price, indicating that we believe that BBY stock is undervalued. Stock prices are a function of expected NOPAT and NOA, as well as the WACC discount rate. Our lower stock price estimate might be due to more optimistic forecasts or a lower discount rate compared to other investors' and analysts' model assumptions.
