*As I mentioned in the video, here are some further explanations of some of the concepts I brought up:* *Capital Expenditures (CapEx)* - Cash you spend on Plant, Property, and Equipment (PP&E). So Apple spends $100 million on a new office building, that's $100 million of Capital Expenditures. CapEx is NOT found in your income statement because they are usually really large one-time expenses and the income statement tries to capture expenses that occur regularly. Instead, the costs of CapEx are depreciated over time (see below). *Depreciation & Amortization (D&A)* - In the CapEx example, if Apple bought a new building for $100 million and that building had a "useful life" of 20 years, the annual D&A would be $100 million / 20 = $5 million a year. D&A IS found in your income statement either embedded into COGS or Operating Expenses. D&A allows you to fairly deduct CapEx spend over a period of time but it's not actual cash that you're spending (instead the actual cash was a one-time payment in CapEx). *Net Working Capital (NWC)* - For a DCF, this is your current OPERATING assets (i.e. excludes cash, includes assets like inventory, accounts receivable, etc.) minus your current OPERATING liabilities (i.e. excludes debt, includes accounts payable, deferred revenue, etc.). Standard definition for NWC is just current assets minus current liabilities but there's a difference for the DCF. NWC looks at the regular cash inflows and outflows from a company's day to day operations. *WACC Formula* - As a reminder, this is your (% of equity * cost of equity) + (your % of debt * cost of debt * (1 - Tax rate)). % of equity means [equity value / (equity value + debt)]. cost of equity is found through the CAPM formula (risk free rate + beta * market risk premium). % of debt is [debt / (debt + equity value)]. You multiply the debt part times 1 - tax rate because interest payments are tax deductible. 💰Get Free Money💰 ► Coinbase - Get $10 in Free Bitcoin: coinbase.com/join/chon_df?src=ios-link ► Moomoo - Get 2 Free Stocks: j.moomoo.com/005RTE ► Webull - Get 2 Free Stocks: act.webull.com/invite/share.html?inviteCode=5gwmzRWoEVWd ► Schwab - Earn up to $500: www.schwab.com/public/schwab/nn/refer-prospect.html?refrid=REFERBYVYKMZ6 ► Blockfi - Get up to $250: blockfi.mxuy67.net/Keje6z ► Audible - 30 Day Free Trial (Unlimited Audio Books!): amzn.to/3u8aBLq
Hey Ben, thanks for all the explainations. I was wondering whether JPM really uses CAPM model and not a more advanced one as other tier 1 banks. It seems too simple to me :D Keep up the good work!
Hi Ben, I am a year-one LSE student. So many of our students are trying to get into investment banking and it's really nice of you to provide free contents. Thank you so so so so so so much!
It is crazy how helpful this channel has been for me over the past couple months. From learning about a career in investment banking a few months ago to helping me prepare for a finance quiz I have tomorrow… The high quality of your videos isn’t going unnoticed and I don’t doubt this channel will really blow up soon!
Your explanation is incredibly amateur-friendly and is definitely interesting that it made me watch the entire thing at 2.30am in the morning. Really appreciate your dedication and knowledge and I am excited to watch your other videos and those upcoming ones! 😁
Interviewer: What's the best method for calculating Terminal Value? Ben: Perpetuity Growth Method is without a doubt the absolute best method Interviewer: Why? Ben: It's the only method I've used.
Thanks so much! Super helpful in preparing for a corp fin interview - concise and to the point. Also thanks for including text boxes - makes it much easier to write down notes 😊
Started watching back your live stream of how to build one of these models. Extremely helpful. Have been looking for a while around this topic, however have found your walk through on the live stream and explanation in this video to be one of the best ive found. Appreciate it.
Really good video! Very informative and easy to understand. But i realised that i really have to up my finance english skills. Some definitions you gave were a little fast for me. But thats not your fault!
Hi I'm recently getting my 1st year Finance classes started in GWU, I'm really nervous and stressful but after learning from your video at least I can have a little bit more confidence on prep for what I will learn in the upcoming classes! Thank you for YOUR useful content!
Very valuable content! I'm trying to go into IB but it's hard if you're 29 yo with no prior exp in that field. My goal is to get an internship (doesn't have to be in a BB oder top tier bank) and I'm trying to increase my chances by completing an IB course on udemy. Keep going with your content! I like them, new sub here👍
I would of lover to seen you use the exit multiple. And fcf gives us market value too, I've seen ppl use a terminal multiple times the fcf to get market cap.
Brother, you are doing such a great thing. Thank you so much. i would like to request you to bring some more videos on financial analysis. if you are free then please try to make details explanation with some examples in excel.
i guess the crypto startup use similar valuation model now. it's a great explanation to a outsider like me who is currently trying to propose a valuation for fundraising event. thanks a lot
So this is really just a way of making a spreadsheet that appears to justify what you already believed. You just need to fudge the numbers to get whatever answer you want. Fiendishly clever.
yes you can always adjust as you would like but it's still a helpful analysis because it shows you what you need to believe to get to a certain valuation
Hello, just discovered and subscribed to your channel 😉 you mentioned DCF applied to biotech companies. Could you please share one of such DCF? I am working in a pharma company and I am very interested in this topic, thank you very much
i did post about comparable comps already but probably won’t do one on lbo or precedent transactions because they’re not really relevant for most retail investors
I made it nearly all the way to the end until you put it all together - fractions, formulae and accounts gave me PTSD from doing algebra, maths and accounting in school, and my brain went into lockdown and noped right outta there; I think I'm doomed to fail! I went and re-watched the suggested video about valuing a company, and if I took everything in, I think I have a noob question: in every example (around the 7:00 min mark here/the whole other video in its entirety), the companies used are solid, for lack of a better word. Can you use any of these methods to value high-growth stocks where they're not making money, taking out loans, etc to get a good idea of how to value them? It doesn't seem like it's appropriate with DCF, but I'm still a little unsure about the other scenario. Or is this an entirely different video altogether? I hope my question makes sense....
yes as i mentioned really high growth companies or cash flow negative companies can be analyzed with a DCF as long as there is confidence that those companies will eventually generate positive cash flow. back at jpm i did 20-30 year DCFs for biotech companies that didn't even have any products on the market and in those scenarios you use a probability weighted valuation to value the company (which is another topic)
@@rareliquid - Awesome, thanks for the clarification! If it's worth your time, I wouldn't mind seeing you do a sample like you did at JPM (or just put it on the list!). Cool video overall. I'm an absolute idiot when it comes to numbers, formulae, etc, so it's gonna take a whole load more time with me to come to grips with DCFs, but I want to learn 😅
Excelent viseo. a pity it was so fast. please elaborate more in other videos and please speak slower so that foreigners can understand you better. Thank you for this video
Bro please make a video on the topic of investment bank analyst interview questions and his clearrful answers humble request you to and i am from india
Hey Ben, quick question. Where do assumptions come from? You said that almost all assumptions will be wrong but I doubt that IB analysts input random numbers there. Are the assumptions derived from various findings in the 10-Ks?
Can u also show us how u get the figures to calculate? Like which page which line of Yahoo Finance for eg... Sorry need some hand holding, if not i can't link theory to practical.. Towards the end... what is cash, why not same as free cash flow? Debt is Total Debt?

i am missing an explanation of the following term: cost of debt
would highly appreciate it.
@@qwertz9501 cost of debt (i think) would be the interest rate that theyre paying on debt, its like how much its costinf them to borrow money.
I took a 9hr course on DCF and you cleared my problems in 18mins. Thank you so much
good to hear! haha

This was extremely helpful! I’d love more basic corporate finance videos and examples. Looking forward to your next vid🙂

Interviewer: Walk me through a DCF
Me: hold my rareliquid subscription
LOL
Interviewer: What's the best method for calculating Terminal Value?
Ben: Perpetuity Growth Method is without a doubt the absolute best method
Interviewer: Why?
Ben: It's the only method I've used.
Thank you for the really clear explanation! Would like to see more in-depth dive into case studies using excel :))
Noted!
Really helpful. I’m 17 trying to get into this and your channel is so helpful

Thank you for clarifying the concepts of DCF and WACC. it is very helpful to a non-business student earning an MBA.
Content keeps getting better and better🙌🏼

You should do a series of videos making in-depth models for trending stocks. Oh and thanks I really enjoyed your video.
Very helpful! I really like that you added explanation and how you use the DCF model at work .

Eyyyyyy glad to see my fellow bear. Go Bears! , instant sub.
Love your teaching!!! so simple and clear :)

Thank you for this great video, I love the formatting
Glad you enjoyed it!

Appreciate the work and effort in explaning the concepts!
This is helpful...assisted me in my home work
Your content is great man!!

You are super helpful! Thank you so much for this!
You rock, dude. 😊
Great Video! Even that i am advanced in this field, i kind of enjoyed the explanation. More of that !!👍
Very clear explanation, extremely helpful ! thanks a lot ~~~~
How do you determine how many years to project out and discount back? The difference between choosing like 5 and 10 can be massive
usually if it’s a company with a lot of growth potential then 10 years if it’s more stable then 5 years
It was pretty much helpful 👍🏻👍🏻
Good video, very helpful for my group work haha, thanks
Can you teach us other valuation methods like ratios and other stuff.
You saved me for my finance final
Hey Sydney! Glad I could help
Thanks for this! You're a good teacher! 👍🏾

Nvm, I figured it out. Thanks for the vid!
Can you do more examples and analysis of companies? Like a top down analysis of Ali Baba stock and then a DCF on it. Thanks!
nice content !
