Expected Default Frequency • Definition – The Probabilitythat a company’s value will fall below a threshold where its unable to pay backits creditors • Three EDF Drivers for calculation: • Default Point • Market Value of Assets • Asset Volatility • Case Application: General Electric (GE)
Calculation of EDF Formula: Default Point X Asset Volatility Market Value of Assets
Default Point • Defined – A threshold where the company’s value is not sufficient to payback what it owes • Between Total Liabilities and ST Liabilities • Empirical Studies Reveal Accurate Formula Default Point = ST Liabilities + ½ (LT Liabilities)
Note: Numbers are in Thousands GE Default Point 679,788,000 - 246,113,000 • Total Liabilities • - ST Liabilities • __________________ • LT Liabilities 433,675,000 Default Point ST Liabilities + (1/2) LT Liabilities 246,133,000 + (1/2) 433,675,000 DEFAULT POINT 462,970,500 Source: Capital IQ
Market Value of Assets • Market Capitalization of Assets • Book Value of Liabilities: Senior Claims • Market Capitalization of Equity: Junior Claims • Formula: • MV Assets = Market Cap. + BV Liabilities
GE Market Value of Assets 118,940,000 + 679,778,000 • Market Cap. • + BV Liabilities • __________________ • Market Value of Assets 798,728,000 Source: Capital IQ
Check Your Understanding Question: Warren Buffet decides to purchase $50 billion in Senior Unsecured Corporate Bonds from GE. What will happen to GE’s EDF A. It will remain the same B. It will increase because of the increase to GE’s Default Point C. It will decrease because of the increase to GE’s Market Value of Assets D. It will increase because the increase to MV of Assets will not have as great of an effect as the Default Point increase. Default Point X Asset Volatility Market Value of Assets
Putting it All Together The Ratio Decreased, what does that mean?
Check Your Understanding Question: Warren Buffet decides to purchase $50 billion in Senior Secured Corporate Bonds from GE. What will happen to GE’s EDF? A. It will remain the same B. It will increase because of the increase to GE’s Default Point C. It will decrease because of the increase to GE’s Market Value of Assets D. It will decrease because the increase to MV of Assets will have a greater effect as the Default Point increase. Default Point X Asset Volatility Market Value of Assets
Asset Volatility • Uncertainty (Volatility) of a Firm • High Volatility = Greater Probability Of Default • Equity Return v. Asset Return • Formula: • Asset Volatility = Standard Deviation of MV of Assets
GE Asset Volatility Standard Deviation Formula Apply to Stock Market GE Share Price X-Bar = Expected Return X = Actual Return N = Number of Observations How do we get Asset Volatility? Where’s our Book Value of Liabilities?
GE Asset Volatility GE Asset Volatility = 0.88%
Check Your Understanding Question: An decrease in GE’s asset volatility will: A. Will have no effect on EDF B. Cause EDF to Increase C. Cause EDF to Decrease D. Asset Volatility has nothing to do with EDF Default Point X Asset Volatility Market Value of Assets
GE EDF Calculation Formula: Default Point X Asset Volatility EDF = Market Value of Assets 433,351,500 EDF = X 0.88% 798,728,000 EDF = 0.477446 %... What does it mean?
Distance to Default Distance to Default = Market Value of Assets – Default Point Distance to Default Distance to Default = $ 365,373,500 How likely will it be for MV Assets to fall below Default Point?
Graphical Interpretation of EDF EDF = Probability that Asset Value will fall below the Default Point Asset Volatility = 0.88% EDF = 0.477% = Chance GE will Default in 1 Year
Check Your Understanding Question: What is the conceptual definition of a 1 Year EDF? A. It’s the probability that a firm will pay back its creditors in a year’s time. B. It’s the probability that a firm will not be able to pay back its creditors in a year’s time. C. It’s the number of standard deviations a firm is away from its default point. D. It’s the expected return on a firm’s stock. E. None of the Above
