Discounted Cash Flow Calculation for NYSE:CPB using 2 Stage Free Cash Flow to Equity Model
The calculations below outline how an intrinsic value for Campbell Soup is arrived at by discounting future cash flows to their present value using the 2 stage method. We try to start with analysts estimates of free cash flow, however if these are not available we use the most recent financial results. In the 1st stage we continue to grow the free cash flow over a 10 year period, with the growth rate trending towards the perpetual growth rate used in the 2nd stage. The 2nd stage assumes the company grows at a stable rate into perpetuity.

Nearly all companies have debt. Debt in itself isn’t
bad,
however if the debt is too high, or the company can’t afford to pay the interest
on its debts this may have impacts in the future.The graphic below shows equity (available funds) and debt, we ideally want to see the red area (debt) decreasing.
If there is any debt we look at the companies capability to repay it, and whether the level has increased over the past 5 years.

Owning a strong business and reinvesting the dividends is widely seen as an attractive way of growing your wealth.

NYSE:CPB Historical Dividend Yield, May 17th 2019 Want to participate in a short research study? Help shape the future of investing tools and you could win a $250 gift card! Payout ratios Dividends are usually paid out of company earnings. If a company is paying more than it earns, then the dividend might become unsustainable - hardly an ideal situation. So we need to be form a view on if a company's dividend is sustainable, relative to its net profit after tax. Although it reported a loss over the past 12 months, Campbell Soup currently pays a dividend. When a company is loss-making, we next need to check to see if its cash flows can support the dividend. As a loss-making company, we can also measure Campbell Soup's dividend payments against its levered free cash flow, to see if enough cash was generated to cover the dividend. Campbell Soup's cash payout ratio in the last year was 42%, which suggests dividends were well covered by cash generated by the business. Is Campbell Soup's Balance Sheet Risky? Given Campbell Soup is paying a dividend but reported a loss over the past year, we need to check its balance sheet for signs of financial distress. A rough way to check this is with these two simple ratios: a) net debt divided by EBITDA (earnings before interest, tax, depreciation and amortisation), and b) net interest cover. Net debt to EBITDA is a measure of a company's total debt. Net interest cover measures the ability to meet interest payments on debt. Essentially we check that a) a company does not have too much debt, and b) that it can afford to pay the interest. … Dividend Volatility Before buying a stock for its income, we want to see if the dividends have been stable in the past, and if the company has a track record of maintaining its dividend. … Campbell Soup has been paying dividends for a long time, but for the purpose of this analysis, we only examine the past 10 years of payments.
