b. Estimate the value of a share of TXRH common stock using the discounted cash flow (DCF) model as of December 29, 2015; assume a discount rate (WACC) of 7%, common shares outstanding of 70,091 thousand, net nonoperating obligations (NNO) of $(14,680) thousand, and noncontrolling interest (NCI) from the balance sheet of $7,520 thousand. Note that NNO is negative because the companys cash exceeds its nonoperating liabilities.

Rounding instructions:

• Use rounded answers for subsequent computations.

• Round answers to the nearest whole number unless otherwise noted.
• Round discount factor to 5 decimal places and stock price per share to two decimal places.
• Use a negative sign with your negative NNO answer. Otherwise, do not use negative signs with your answers.

c. TXRH closed at $42.13 on February 26, 2016, the date the Form 10-K was filed with the SEC. How does your valuation estimate compare with this closing price?

Stock prices are a function of many factors. It is impossible to speculate on the reasons for the difference.

Our stock price estimate is higher than the TXRH market price, indicating that we believe that the stock is slightly undervalued. Stock prices are a function of expected NOPAT and NOA, as well as the WACC discount rate. Our higher stock price estimate might be due to more optimistic forecasts or a lower discount rate compared to other investors' and analysts' model assumptions.
