Today we will run through one way of estimating the intrinsic value of Shenzhen Guangju Energy Co., Ltd. (SZSE:000096) by taking the expected future cash flows and discounting them to their present value. The Discounted Cash Flow (DCF) model is the tool we will apply to do this. It may sound complicated, but actually it is quite simple!
Companies can be valued in a lot of ways, so we would point out that a DCF is not perfect for every situation. Anyone interested in learning a bit more about intrinsic value should have a read of the Simply Wall St analysis model.

The Method
We have to calculate the value of Shenzhen Guangju Energy slightly differently to other stocks because it is a oil and gas company. Instead of using free cash flows, which are hard to estimate and often not reported by analysts in this industry, dividends per share (DPS) payments are used. This often underestimates the value of a stock, but it can still be good as a comparison to competitors. The 'Gordon Growth Model' is used, which simply assumes that dividend payments will continue to increase at a sustainable growth rate forever. The dividend is expected to grow at an annual growth rate equal to the 5-year average of the 10-year government bond yield of 3.2%. We then discount this figure to today's value at a cost of equity of 11%. Compared to the current share price of CN¥9.5, the company appears around fair value at the time of writing. Valuations are imprecise instruments though, rather like a telescope - move a few degrees and end up in a different galaxy. Do keep this in mind.
Value Per Share = Expected Dividend Per Share / (Discount Rate - Perpetual Growth Rate)
= CN¥0.7 / (11% – 3.2%)
= CN¥9.1

Important Assumptions
The calculation above is very dependent on two assumptions. The first is the discount rate and the other is the cash flows. If you don't agree with these result, have a go at the calculation yourself and play with the assumptions. The DCF also does not consider the possible cyclicality of an industry, or a company's future capital requirements, so it does not give a full picture of a company's potential performance. Given that we are looking at Shenzhen Guangju Energy as potential shareholders, the cost of equity is used as the discount rate, rather than the cost of capital (or weighted average cost of capital, WACC) which accounts for debt. In this calculation we've used 11%, which is based on a levered beta of 1.550. Beta is a measure of a stock's volatility, compared to the market as a whole. We get our beta from the industry average beta of globally comparable companies, with an imposed limit between 0.8 and 2.0, which is a reasonable range for a stable business.
Next Steps:
Although the valuation of a company is important, it shouldn't be the only metric you look at when researching a company. The DCF model is not a perfect stock valuation tool. Rather it should be seen as a guide to "what assumptions need to be true for this stock to be under/overvalued?" If a company grows at a different rate, or if its cost of equity or risk free rate changes sharply, the output can look very different. For Shenzhen Guangju Energy, we've compiled three relevant factors you should further research:
- Risks: For instance, we've identified 4 warning signs for Shenzhen Guangju Energy (2 are a bit unpleasant) you should be aware of.

今天,我們將介紹一種估算深圳光聚能源股份有限公司(深圳證券交易所代碼:000096)內在價值的方法,即將預期的未來現金流折現為現值。貼現現金流(DCF)模型是我們將應用的工具。這聽起來可能很複雜,但實際上很簡單!
對公司的估值可以有很多種方式,因此我們要指出,貼現現金流並不適用於每一種情況。任何有興趣瞭解更多內在價值的人,都應該閲讀一下Simply Wall St.的分析模型。

該方法
我們必須計算深圳光聚能源的價值,因為它是一家石油和天然氣公司,與其他股票略有不同。它不使用自由現金流,而是使用每股股息(DPS)支付。自由現金流很難估計,該行業的分析師往往不會報告自由現金流。這往往低估了一隻股票的價值,但與競爭對手相比,它仍然是好的。我們使用的是‘戈登增長模型’,該模型簡單地假設股息支付將永遠以可持續的增長率增長。預計股息的年增長率將相當於10年期政府債券收益率3.2%的5年平均水平。然後,我們以11%的股本成本將這個數字貼現到今天的價值中。與目前9.5元的股價相比,該公司在撰寫本文時的公允價值附近。然而,估值是不精確的工具,更像是一臺望遠鏡--移動幾度,就會到達另一個星系。一定要記住這一點。
每股價值=預期每股股息/(折現率-永久增長率)
=CN元0.7元/(11%-3.2%)
=CN元9.1元

重要假設
上述計算在很大程度上取決於兩個假設。第一個是貼現率,另一個是現金流。如果你不同意這些結果,你可以自己試一試計算,並玩弄一下假設。DCF也沒有考慮一個行業可能的週期性,也沒有考慮一家公司未來的資本要求,因此它沒有給出一家公司潛在業績的全貌。鑑於我們將深圳光聚能源視為潛在股東,折現率使用股權成本,而不是計入債務的資本成本(或加權平均資本成本,WACC)。在這個計算中,我們使用了11%,這是基於槓桿率為1.550的測試版。貝塔係數是衡量一隻股票相對於整個市場的波動性的指標。我們的貝塔係數來自全球可比公司的行業平均貝塔係數,強制限制在0.8到2.0之間,這是一個穩定業務的合理範圍。
接下來的步驟:
儘管一家公司的估值很重要,但它不應該是你在研究一家公司時唯一考慮的指標。貼現現金流模型並不是一個完美的股票估值工具。相反,它應該被視為“什麼假設需要成立才能讓這隻股票被低估或高估”的指南。如果一家公司以不同的速度增長,或者如果其股本成本或無風險利率大幅變化,產出可能看起來非常不同。對於深圳光聚能源,我們整理了三個相關因素,大家應該進一步研究:
- 風險:例如,我們已經確定了深圳光聚能源的4個警示標誌(2)你應該意識到這一點。
- 其他穩固的企業:低債務、高股本回報率和良好的過去業績是強勁業務的基礎。為什麼不探索我們具有堅實商業基本面的股票的互動列表,看看是否有其他您可能沒有考慮過的公司!
- 其他環保公司:關注環境,認為消費者會越來越多地購買環保產品?瀏覽我們的互動列表,這些公司正在考慮更綠色的未來,發現一些你可能沒有想到的股票!
