CLPR Value

Is Clipper Realty undervalued based on future cash flows and its price relative to the stock market?

Value is all about what a company is worth versus what price it is available for. If you went into a grocery store and all the bananas were on sale at half price, they could be considered undervalued.

INTRINSIC VALUE BASED ON FUTURE CASH FLOWS

Here we compare the current share price of Clipper Realty to its discounted cash flow analysis.value.

The discounted cash flow value is simply looking at what the company is worth today, based on estimates of how much money it is expected to make in the future.

Raw Data

Below are the data sources, inputs and calculation used to determine the intrinsic value for Clipper Realty.

NYSE:CLPR Discounted Cash Flow Data Sources
Data Point	Source	Value
Valuation Model		2 Stage Free Cash Flow to Equity using Adjusted Funds From Operations
Levered Adjusted Funds From Operations	Average of 3 Analyst Estimates (S&P Global)	See below
Discount Rate (Cost of Equity)	See below	9.5%
Perpetual Growth Rate	10-Year US Government Bond Rate	2.7%

An important part of a discounted cash flow is the discount rate, below we explain how it has been calculated.

Calculation of Discount Rate/ Cost of Equity for NYSE:CLPR
Data Point	Calculation/ Source	Result
Risk-Free Rate	10-Year US Govt Bond Rate	2.7%
Equity Risk Premium	S&P Global	6%
REITs Unlevered Beta	Simply Wall St/ S&P Global	0.53
Re-levered Beta	= Unlevered beta (1 + (1- tax rate) (Debt/Equity)) = 0.531 (1 + (1- 21%) (159.87%))	1.135
Levered Beta	Levered Beta limited to 0.8 to 2.0 (practical range for a stable firm)	1.14
Discount Rate/ Cost of Equity	= Cost of Equity = Risk Free Rate + (Levered Beta * Equity Risk Premium) = 2.73% + (1.135 * 5.96%)	9.5%

Discounted Cash Flow Calculation for NYSE:CLPR using 2 Stage Free Cash Flow to Equity using Adjusted Funds From Operations Model

The calculations below outline how an intrinsic value for Clipper Realty 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.

Clipper Realty is a Real Estate Investment Trust (REIT), we use funds from operations (FFO) or adjusted funds from operations (AFFO) instead of levered free cash flow for REITs. This excludes depreciation and borrowing. Ideally analysts estimates of AFFO are used, where these aren't available we use FFO.

We want to ensure a company is making the most of what it has available. This is done by comparing the return (profit) to a company's available funds, assets and capital.

It is difficult to establish if Clipper Realty has efficiently used shareholders’ funds last year (Return on Equity greater than 20%) as it is loss-making.
Clipper Realty used its assets less efficiently than the US REITs industry average last year based on Return on Assets.
It is difficult to establish if Clipper Realty improved its use of capital last year versus 3 years ago (Return on Capital Employed) as it is currently loss-making.

Past performance checks

We assess Clipper Realty's performance over the past 5 years by checking for:

Has earnings increased in past 5 years? (1 check)

Is the Return on Equity (ROE) higher than 20%? (1 check)
Is the Return on Assets (ROA) above industry average? (1 check)
Has the Return on Capital Employed (ROCE) increased from 3 years ago? (1 check)

The above checks will fail if the company has reported a loss in the most recent earnings report. Some checks require at least 3 or 5 years worth of data.
