13. Sora Industries has 60 million outstanding shares, $120 million in debt, $44 million in cash, and the following projected free cash flow for the next four years:
| Year | 0 | 1 | 2 | 3 | 4 |
| Earnings and FCF Forecast($ millions) | |||||
| Sales | 433 | 468 | 516 | 547 | 574.3 |
| Growth versus Prior Year | 8.10% | 10.30% | 6.00% | 5.00% | |
| Cost of Goods Sold | -313.6 | -345.7 | -366.5 | -384.8 | |
| Growth Profit | 154.4 | 170.3 | 180.5 | 189.5 | |
| Selling, General and Administrative | -93.6 | -103.2 | -109.4 | -114.9 | |
| Depreciation | -7 | -7.5 | -9 | -9.5 | |
| EBIT | 53.8 | 59.6 | 62.1 | 65.2 | |
| Less: Income Tax at 40% | -21.5 | -23.8 | -24.8 | -26.1 | |
| Plus: Depreciation | 7 | 7.5 | 9 | 9.5 | |
| Less: Capital Expenditures | -7.7 | -10 | -9.9 | -10.4 | |
| Less: Increase in NWC | -6.3 | -8.6 | -5.6 | -4.9 | |
| Free Cash Flow | 25.3 | 24.6 | 30.8 | 33.3 |
a. Suppose Soras revenue and free cash flow are expected to grow at a 5.5% rate beyond year 4. If Soras weighted average cost of capital is 10%, what is the value of Soras stock based on this information?
b. Soras cost of goods sold was assumed to be 67% of sales. If its cost of goods sold is actually 70% of sales, how would the estimate of the stocks value change?
c. Lets return to the assumptions of part (a) and suppose Sora can maintain its cost of goods sold at 67% of sales. However, now suppose Sora reduces its selling, general, and administrative expenses from 20% of sales to 16% of sales. What stock price would you estimate now? (Assume no other expenses, except taxes, are affected.)
d. Soras net working capital needs were estimated to be 18% of sales (which is their current level in year 0). If Sora can reduce this requirement to 12% of sales starting in year 1, but all other assumptions remain as in part (a), what stock price do you estimate for Sora? (Hint: This change will have the largest impact on Soras free cash flow in year 1.)
