  1. Chapter 5 Residual Income Valuation

  2. What is residual income? • Residual income is net income less a charge (deduction) for common shareholders’ opportunity cost in generating net income. • Recent years have seen a resurgence in its use as a valuation approach, also under such names as economic profit, abnormal earnings and Economic Value Added®.

  3. Primary uses of residual income • Measurement of internal corporate performance • Estimation of the intrinsic value of common stock • We focus on the residual income model for valuation of common stock.

  4. Residual income vs traditional accounting income • Traditional financial statements are prepared to reflect earnings available to owners. Net income includes an expense to represent the cost of debt capital (interest expense). Dividends or other charges for equity capital are not deducted. Traditional accounting leaves to the owners the determination as to whether the resulting earnings are sufficient to meet the cost of equity capital. • The economic concept of residual income, on the other hand, explicitly considers the cost of equity capital.

  5. An example of residual income • Axis Manufacturing Company (AMC) has total assets of €2,000,000 financed 50% with debt and 50% with equity capital. The cost of debt capital is 7% pre-tax (4.9% after tax) and the cost of equity capital is 12%. Net income for AMC can be determined as follows: • EBIT €200,000 • Less: Interest Expense 70,000 • Pre-Tax Income €130,000 • Income Tax Expense 39,000 • Net Income € 91,000 • What is it’s residual income? One approach is to compute the cost of equity capital (in terms of currency), which we term an equity charge, and subtract this from net income, as follows: • Equity Charge = Equity Capital х Cost of Equity Capital in % • Cost of Equity = €1,000,000 х 12% = € 120,000 • Net Income € 91,000 • Equity Charge 120,000 • Residual Income €(29,000) • AMC did not earn enough to cover the cost of equity capital. As a result, it has negative residual income.

  6. Continuation of example • Another approach that yields the same results is to compare the firm’s operating profit after taxes to the weighted average cost of capital (WACC). • In the case of AMC, the operating profit after taxes is €140,000 (€200,000 less 30% taxes) or 7% of assets. The firm’s after–tax, weighted average cost of capital is 8.45%, computed as 50% equity times the cost of equity of 12% plus 50% debt times the after-tax cost of debt, 4.9%. The firm is therefore not earning its cost of capital, with its after-tax weighted average cost of capital exceeding its after-tax operating return on assets by 1.45%. • The equity charge is €169,000 (= 8.45%  €2,000,000), which is higher than it after-tax operating profit of €140,000 by €29,000, the same figure derived above.

  7. Other names for residual income • Residual income has also been called economic profit since it represents the economic profit of the firm after deducting the cost of all capital, debt and equity. • The term abnormal earnings is also used. Assuming that over the long term the firm is expected to earn its cost of capital (from all sources), any earnings in excess of the cost of capital can be termed abnormal earnings. • One example of several competing commercial implementations of the residual income concept is Economic Value Added (EVA®) trademarked by Stern Stewart & Company. EVA® is computed as • EVA® = NOPAT – (C% х TC) • NOPAT is the firm’s net operating profit after taxes, • C% is the cost of capital and • TC is total capital.

  8. EVA® adjustments • In this model both NOPAT and TC determined under generally accepted accounting principles are adjusted for a number of items to arrive at an economic measure of income. Some of the more common adjustments: • Research and development expenses are capitalized and amortized rather than expensed (R&D expense is added back to earnings to compute NOPAT). • For strategic investments which are not expected to generate a return immediately, a charge for capital is suspended until a later date. • Goodwill is capitalized and not amortized (amortization expense is added back in arriving at NOPAT and accumulated amortization is added back to capital). • Deferred taxes are eliminated such that only cash taxes are treated as an expense. • Any inventory LIFO reserve is added back to capital and any increase in the LIFO reserve is added in arriving at NOPAT. • Operating leases are treated as capital leases and non-recurring items are adjusted.

  9. MVA • Over time a firm must generate EVA® in order to add market value to the firm. A related concept is Market Value Added (MVA): • MVA = Market Value of the Firm – Capital • Similar to the residual income model above, a firm that generates EVA® should have a market value in excess of the accounting book value of its capital. • Commercial models similar to EVA® and MVA are in use by other major accounting and consulting firms. These implementations of the residual income concept are primarily marketed for use in measuring internal corporate performance and in determining compensation. Our focus is on the broader concept of residual income as used in a valuation context.

  10. Residual income model of valuation • In the Residual Income Model (RIM) of valuation, the intrinsic value of the firm has two components: • The current book value of equity, plus • The present value of future residual income • This can be expressed algebraically as • In the model, • B0 is the current book value of equity, • Bt is the book value of equity at time t, • RIt is the residual income in future periods, • r is the required rate of return on equity, • Et = net income during period t, • RIt = Et – rBt-1.

  11. Valuing a perpetuity with the RIM • A company will earn $1.00 per share forever, and the company also pays out all of this as dividends, $1.00 per share. The equity capital invested (book value) is $6.00 per share. Because the earnings and dividends will offset each other, the future book value of the stock will always stay at $6.00. The required rate of return on equity (or the percent cost of equity) is 10%. • 1. Calculate the value of this stock using the dividend discount model. • 2. What will be the residual income each year? Calculate the value of the stock using a residual income valuation model. • 3. Create a table summarizing the recognition of value in the dividend discount model and the residual income model.

  12. Perpetuity example • Solution to 1. Since the dividend is a perpetuity, • P0 = D / r = 1.00 / 0.10 = $10.00 per share. • Solution to 2. The net income is $1.00 each year, the book value is always $6.00, and the required return is 10%, so the residual income in every year will be: • RIt = Et – rBt-1 = 1.00 – 0.10 (6.00) = 1.00 – 0.60 = $0.40. • The value, using a residual income approach, is the current book value plus the present value of future residual income. The residual income is a perpetuity: • P0 = Book value + PV of Residual income = 6.00 + 0.40 / 0.10 = 6.00 + 4.00 = $10.00.

  13. Perpetuity example • Solution to 3.

  14. RIM valuation vs other DCF models • The stylized example presented above demonstrates that conceptually valuation is not all that different whether a discounted cash flow approach or residual income model are used. Why then does the analyst need a residual income model? In a simple cases such as the perpetuity, both DDM and RIM are easily applied. For other examples, there are two important differences • Timing of recognition of value. Forecasting of future dividends and cash flows is often difficult. One key advantage to a residual income model over other models is the timing of the recognition of value. In DCF approaches most of the value is found in future dividends and in the terminal value computation. The longer the forecast period the higher the uncertainty that will exist regarding these future cash flows. • Terminal value. Further, as we will see shortly, in many residual income valuation contexts the terminal value is deemed to be zero. The determination of book value today is much easier than the determination of a terminal value ten or twenty years hence.

  15. When to use RIM valuation A residual income model is most appropriate when: • A firm is not paying dividends of if it exhibits an unpredictable dividend pattern. • A firm has negative free cash flow many years out, but is expected to generate positive cash flow at some point in the future (for example, a young or rapidly growing firm where capital expenditures are being made to fuel future growth. • There is a great deal of uncertainty in forecasting terminal values.

  16. Derivation of the RIM of valuation Start with the DDM: The relationship between earnings, dividends and book value is given by the clean surplus equation as

  17. Derivation of RIM of valuation • This means that • Dt = Et – (Bt – Bt-1) = Et + Bt-1 – Bt • Substituting this into the DDM: • This equation can be simplified:

  18. Derivation of RIM of valuation • This can also be expressed as: • This equation is logically equivalent to the one above since RIt = (ROEt – r)×Bt-1. Other than the required rate of return, the inputs to the residual income model are based upon accounting data.

  19. RIM of valuation example Simon Investment Trust (SIT) is expected to earn $4.00, $5.00, and $8.00 for the next three years. SIT will pay annual dividends of $2.00, $2.50, and $22.50 in each of these years. The last dividend includes the liquidating payment to shareholders at the end of year 3 when the trust will terminate. SIT’s book value is $8 per share and its required return on equity is 10%. • A. What is the current value per share of SIT according to the dividend discount model? • B. Calculate the book value and residual income for SIT for each of the next 3 years and use those results to find the stock’s value using the residual income model. • C. Calculate return on equity and use it as an input to the residual income model to calculate SIT’s value.

  20. RIM of valuation example • P0 = Present Value of the future dividends • P0 = 2/1.10 + 2.50/(1.1)2 + 20.50/(1.1)3 • P0 = $1.818 + $2.066 + $15.402 = 19.286 • The book values and residual incomes for the next 3 years are: • Year 1 2 3 • Beginning Book Value 8.00 10.00 12.50 • Retained earnings (NI–DIV) 2.00 2.50 (12.50) • Ending Book Value 10.00 12.50 0.0 • Net income 4.00 5.00 8.00 • Less equity charge (r  Begin Book Val) 0.80 1.00 1.25 • Residual income 3.20 4.00 6.75 • P0 = 8.00 + 3.20/1.1 + 4.00/(1.1)2 + 6.75/(1.1)3 • P0 = 8.00 + 2.909 + 3.306 + 5.071 = 19.286

  21. RIM of valuation example C. Year 1 2 3 • Net income 4.00 5.00 8.00 • Begin. Bk Value 8.00 10.00 12.50 • ROE (return on equity) 50% 50% 64% • ROE – r 40% 40% 54% • Residual income (ROE–r)  Begin Bk Val 3.20 4.00 6.75 • P0 = 8.00 + 3.20/1.1 + 4.00/(1.1)2 + 6.75/(1.1)3 • P0 = 8.00 + 2.909 + 3.306 + 5.071 = 19.286 • Note: since the residual incomes for each year are necessarily the same in questions B & C, the results for stock valuation are identical.

  22. Constant growth residual income model • A firm’s intrinsic value under a residual income can be expressed as: • The first term, B0, reflects the value of assets owned by the firm less its liabilities. • The second term, B0(ROE-r)/(r-g), represents additional value that is expected due to the firm’s ability to generate returns in excess of its cost of equity. The second term represents the value of the firm’s economic profits. • If a firm earns exactly the cost of equity the price should equal the book value per share.

  23. Residual income, dividend, and free cash flow valuation models • Residual income models, dividend discount models, and free cash flow models are all theoretically sound. • The difference is that DDM and FCFE models forecast future cash flows and find the value of stock by discounting them back to the present using the required return on equity. • The RI model approaches this process differently. It starts with a beginning value, the book value or investment in equity, and then makes adjustments to this value by adding the present values of future residual income (which can be positive or negative). • The recognition of value is different, but the total present value of these values (whether future dividends, future free cash flow, or book value plus future residual income) should be logically consistent.

  24. The residual income valuation model has two components (book value and future earnings) that have a balancing effect on each other, provided that the clean surplus relationship is followed. Unfortunately, there are several possible problems in practice: • Violations of the Clean Surplus Relationship • Balance Sheet Adjustments for Fair Value • Intangible Assets • Non-Recurring Items • Aggressive Accounting Practices • International considerations

  25. Violations of the clean surplus relationship • Violations of clean surplus accounting occur when accounting standards permit charges directly to stockholders’ equity, bypassing the income statement. • An example is the case of changes in the market value of long-term investments. International Accounting Standards provide that the change in market value can be reported either in current profits or in stockholders’ equity. • Under U.S. GAAP investments that are considered to be “available for sale” are included on the balance sheet at market value; however, any change in their market value is reflected in stockholders’ equity as other comprehensive income rather than as income on the income statement. (Comprehensive income is all changes in equity other than contributions by and distributions to owners.) Comprehensive income includes net income reported on the income statement. Other comprehensive income is the result of other events and transactions which result in a change to equity but are not reported on the income statement. Other items that commonly bypass the income statement are • foreign currency translation adjustments • certain pension adjustments • fair value changes of some financial instruments

  26. Balance sheet adjustments for fair value • In order to have a reliable measure of book value of equity, the balance sheet should be scrutinized for significant off-balance sheet assets and liabilities. Additionally, reported assets and liabilities should be adjusted to fair value where possible. Some common items to review for balance include: • Inventory • Deferred tax assets and liabilities • Pension plan assets and liabilities • Operating leases • Special purpose entities • Reserves and allowances (for example, bad debts) • Intangible assets

  27. Intangible assets • For specifically identifiable intangibles that can be separated from the entity (e.g., sold), it is appropriate to include these in the determination of book value of equity. If these assets are wasting (declining in value over time), they will be amortized over time as an expense. • Goodwill, on the other hand, requires special consideration, particularly due to recent changes in accounting for goodwill. Goodwill is generally not recognized as an asset unless it results from an acquisition (under most international accounting standards, internally generated goodwill is not recognized on the balance sheet). Goodwill represents the excess of the purchase price of an acquisition over the value of the net assets acquired. • Research and development costs provide also must be given careful consideration. Under U.S. GAAP, R&D is expensed to the income statement directly. Under IAS, some R&D costs can be capitalized and amortized over time. While R&D may lead to the existence of an “asset in theory,” this is reflected in the firm’s ROE and hence residual income over time. If a firm engages in unproductive R&D expenditures, these will lower residual income through the expenditures made. If a firm engages in productive R&D expenditures they should result in higher revenues to offset the expenditures over time. On an ongoing basis this should be reflected in ROE forecasts for a mature firm.

  28. Nonrecurring items • In applying a residual income model, it is important to develop a forecast of future residual income based upon recurring items. • Often companies report non-recurring charges as part of earnings or classify non-operating income (e.g., sale of assets) as part of operating income. These misclassifications can lead over-estimates and under-estimates of future residual earnings if no adjustments are made. Note that adjustments to book value are not necessary for these items since non-recurring gains and losses do impact the value of assets in place. Non-recurring items sometimes result from accounting rules and at other times result from “strategic” management decisions. • An analysts should examine the financial statement notes and other sources for potential items that may warrant adjustment in determining recurring earnings such as: • Unusual items • Extraordinary items • Restructuring charges • Discontinued operations • Accounting changes • In some cases, management may be recording restructuring or unusual charges in every period. In these cases, the item may be considered an ordinary operating expense and may not require adjustment.

  29. Other aggressive accounting practices • Firms may engage in accounting practices that result in the overstatement of assets (book value) and/or overstatement of earnings. Many of these were included in the preceding sections. • Other activities that a firm may engage in include accelerating revenues to the current period or deferring expenses to a later period. Both activities simultaneously increase earnings and book value. • For example, a firm might ship unordered goods to customers at yearend, recording revenues and a receivable. • Conversely, a firm could capitalize rather than expense a cash payment resulting in lower expenses and an asset. • The analyst must carefully evaluate a firm’s accounting policies and consider the integrity of management in assessing the inputs in a residual income model. • Firms have also been criticized recently for the use of “cookie jar” reserves where excess losses or expenses are recorded in an earlier period (for example in conjunction with an acquisition or restructuring) and then used to reduce expense and increase income in future periods. The analysts should carefully examine the use of reserves in an assessment of residual earnings.

  30. International considerations • Some of the primary considerations internationally are: • The availability of reliable earnings forecasts • Systematic violations of the clean surplus assumption • “Poor Quality” accounting rules that result in delayed recognition of value changes. • We noted earlier that there are differences in standards worldwide particularly for goodwill and R&D. If the adjustments recommended in the preceding sections are made, international comparisons should result in comparable valuations.

  31. Single-stage residual income model • A single-stage residual income model assumes that a firm has a return on equity and growth rate that are expected to be constant over time.

  32. Multi-stage residual income model • A multi-stage approach can be used where residual income is forecast for a certain time horizon and a terminal value is determined at the end of the time horizon. The terminal value is based on continuing residual income. • Alternately, the equation is:

  33. Multistage example • Shunichi Kobayashi is valuing United Parcel Service Inc. (NYSE: UPS). Kobayashi has decided to use the following assumptions: • Book value per share is estimated to be $9.62 on December 31, 2001. • Earnings per share will be 22% of the beginning book value per share for the next eight years. • Cash dividends paid will be 30% of earnings per share • At the end of the eight year period, the market price per share will be three times the book value per share. • The beta for UPS is 0.60. The risk-free rate is 5.00% and the market risk premium is 5.50%. • The current market price of UPS is $59.38, which indicates a current a market-to-book ratio of 6.2. Kobayashi has decided to do the following. • A. Prepare a table showing the beginning and ending book values, net income, and cash dividends annually for the eight year period. • B. Estimate the residual income and the present value of residual income for the eight years. • C. Estimate the value per share of UPS stock using the residual income method. • D. Estimate the value per share of UPS stock using the discounted dividend method. How does this value compare to the estimate from the residual income method?

  34. Multistage example • A. The table below shows calculations for book values, net income, and dividends. • For each year above, net income is 22% of beginning book value. Dividends are 30% of net income. The ending book value is the beginning book value plus net income minus dividends.

  35. Multistage example

  36. Multistage example • B. Residual income is Net income minus the Cost of equity (%) times Beginning book value. To find the cost of equity, • r = rf + β(rm – rf) = 5% + 0.60 (5.5%) = 8.30%. • For year 1 in the table above, • Residual income = 2.116 – 8.30% (9.62) = 2.116 – 0.798 = $1.318 • This same calculation is repeated for years 2 through 8. The final column of the table above gives the present value of the calculated residual income, discounted at 8.30%.

  37. Multistage example • C. To find the stock value with the residual income approach, we use the equation: • In this equation, B0 is the current stock price of $9.62. The sum of the present values of the eight years’ residual income is the sum of the present values of the residual incomes in the table above. This sum is $12.288. We need to estimate the final term, the present value of the excess of the terminal stock price over the terminal book value. The terminal stock price is assumed to be 3.0 times the terminal book value, or PT = 3.0 (30.257) = $90.771. PT – BT is 90.771 – 30.257 = $60.514. The present value of this discounted at 8.30% for eight years is: $31.976. Adding these terms together gives a stock price of V0 = 9.62 + 12.288 + 31.976 = $53.884.

  38. Multistage example • D. The dividend discount model is • The first eight dividends were calculated above. Discounting them at 8.30% gives their present values:

  39. Multistage example • The present value of the eight dividends is $5.92. • The terminal stock price is $90.771, which is worth $47.964 discounted at 8.30% for eight years. • The value for the stock, the present value of the dividends plus the present value of the terminal stock price, is V0 = 5.92 + 47.964 = $53.884. • The stock values estimated with the residual income model and the dividend discount model are identical. Since they are based on similar financial assumptions, this is expected.
