Target Price Research Paper

Our ending stock price at the end of year 2023 was $425.58, with the second highest stock price being Baldwin’s $159.81 (Appendix C).

Therefore to support Alusaf to build the proposed Hillside smelter, it must expect the future price should be around $1208 (for ROI at 10%) or $1500 (for ROI at 15%) to justify the investment.

The maximum share price, if Herbert Kohler is willing to settle with the dissenting shareholders to stop the trail on April 11, 2000, is $120,680.  Given the probability of the two outcomes, the expected price for $273,000 per share claim (probability 30%) was $81,900 and the

Acme Mfg currently is all-equity financed, with 2 mm shares outstanding at a current price of $40/sh. The firm announces they will raise $8 mm by issuing new equity to fund a new project (assume investors expect the NPV of the new project is 0).

The company is cutting back on profits earned but not losing value for its investors with price to earnings being favorable at 19.18 (www.hoovers.com).

Google and Yahoo have a calculation of the P/E but both are different being $12.22 and $11.96 respectively at this current point in time. The main reason for the current difference in P/E is the discrepancy in earnings per share of $.10. To find historical P/E ratios for Target i have to do a google search and it brought up a site call YCharts. For the year of 2016 they do not give you an average but plotting a few point and finding an average I came up with about $12.84 for a ten year chart I would have had to sign up for a free trial but 2016 looked about average compared to pre 2014 when the stock was on a quick rise. Looking at a rough five year average of $17.97 the $11.92 is really low. In other words the current P/E is on the low side which may indicate a time to buy.

Current market prices: Both McCaw and AT&T’s common shares are publicly traded. The market value of the equity can be summed with the book value of debt to give a rough estimate of the firm’s current value. The calculation that follows suggests a value for McCaw’s assets of about $10.5 billion. McCaw’s shares may be trading at a minority discount, because the CEO holds a controlling block of shares. To purchase a partial

Second once Apple stabilized after year 2019, the prediction of growth is 3%, and Beta was projected to be .96. Again, by using the boundaries stated above: the (Ke), weight of equity/debt, and WACC were as follow 6.34%, 80%, 20%, and 5.63%. These numbers were somewhat similar to its high growth stage; therefore, signifying Apple is still a strong company once it stabilizes. Yet, another reason why Apple can provide such attractive returns. Conversely, finding the Terminal Value (Pt) of the company, which is the value of the company at a future year, projected the PV for stable growth, in this case it was 2020. The (Pt) was over $1 billion, yet again another reason why Apple creates a great investment opportunity. Moreover, by adding all of the PV, including the stable growth year, the intrinsic value of the firm is over $966 million and minus the current value of debt, Apple is still worth (value of equity) over $926 million. This equity divided the current number of shares outstanding; Apple’s intrinsic value of stock is $988.80 per share. By comparison the current stock price, which is $649.79 per share, the stock value is undervalued. Likewise, making (AAPL) a rewarding opportunity that must not be taken for granted.

3. If I were part of the underwriting syndicate I would recommend a price of $21 for the offering. While the underwriters have given a range of $15-17 per share, I believe that Rosetta Stone will follow suit with the two other companies that went public during the year and experience a large price jump on the first day of trading. A higher initial offering will make it look better for the underwriters, so they are not accused of severely underpricing the shares.

Based on pro forma stock prices, we calculated estimated dividend yields in Exhibit 3 as well. At 70% debt, the yield is actually higher than the current yield. Rising dividends, coupled with higher EPS, should push AHP’s stock price up.

Although Blaine’s current financial situation is sound with no debt, its current balance sheet is under levered and over liquid
