The boring details
| All amounts in millions | Figures |
| Enterprise Value: | 21,738 |
| Net Debt (Long-term borrowings less cash): | -7,385 |
| Equity Value: | 47,095 |
| Number of Shares Outstanding: | 2,042,000,000 |
| Calculated value per share: | $23.94 |
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$65.5 billion in 2009 growing to US$75.0 billion in 2011. We have used an EBITDA margin of 7% in 2009 rising to 7.5% in 2010 and 2011. We have used a terminal growth rate of 4.0%. We calculated that using a present value calculation with the growth rate dropping from 7.5% in 2012 to 3.5% in 2016. We used a terminal capital expenditure number of US$900 million. We have used a WACC (discount rate) of 11.5%.
