The boring details
| All amounts in millions | Figures |
| Enterprise Value: | 300,392 |
| Net Debt (Long-term borrowings less cash): | 19,128 |
| Equity Value: | 161,795 |
| Number of Shares Outstanding: | 1,354,000,000 |
| Calculated value per share: | $128.25 |
Enterprise Value is the present value of the post-tax cash flows for a business into the future.
Where:
- C1, C2, C3 - the cash flow in period 1, 2, 3, ...
- r - the discount rate
To capture the cash flows into the future a terminal value is calculated via a perpetuity calculation -
based on the final years forecast post-tax free cash flow.
Where:
- Cn - the cash flow in the final forecast period.
- LTG - the long-term growth rate
- r - the discount rate
- g - the terminal growth rate
The Capital Asset Pricing Model (CAPM) is used to determine the equity component in the discount rate.
Where:
- rt - the risk free rate
- t - the tax rate
- B - the beta of the company
- MRP - the Market Risk Premium
Valuecruncher uses an estimate of Weighted Average Cost of Capital (WACC) to determine the discount rate in the calculation.

Our assumptions are revenues of US$105.0 billion in 2008 growing to US$115.0 billion in 2010. This growth is a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 5% for 2007-10 this compares to a 4% CAGR from 2005-7. We have used a flat EBITDA margin of 20% to 2010. We used a terminal growth rate of 3.0%. We used a terminal capital expenditure number of US$5.5 billion. We have used a WACC (discount rate) of 9.0%. All of these assumptions can be amended in the Valuecruncher on-line valuation model to adjust the valuation.
