Delta Airlines EXPANDED BALANCE SHEET
Delta Airlines EXPANDED INCOME STATEMENT
Valuation using cash flows • Calculating free cash flows • Cash flow valuation is used because the valuation is based on the opportunity to receive cash payoffs in the future • Determining the amount, timing and uncertainty of future payoffs can be challenging
DCF Model • Percentage of value captured in first six years: 32%
Residual Enterprise income • REIt=EPATt-(rEnt*NEAt-1) • Residual enterprise income valuation model anchors the valuation on the current book value of net enterprise assets (NEA0) and future residual enterprise income serves as the adjustment to this valuation to counter the effect that accounting rules and procedures have on this valuation starting point • Residual income models look at the economic profitability of a firm rather than just its accounting profitability
REI Model • Percentage of value captured in first six years: 66%
Abnormal enterprise income growth MODEL • Agrt = (EPATt + (rEnt *FCFt-1)-((1+ rEnt)*EPATt-1)) • Anchor on earnings instead of book value like REI • Anchor is capitalized earnings • Accounting changes do not change value estimate
AGR Model • Percentage of value captured in first six years: 89%
Delta Airlines • Higher operating margin than major big competitors (so earning more on each dollar of sales) • Higher EPS than major competitors • Higher net income (10.54B) than American Airlines Group (-1.83B) and United Continental Holdings (550M) • Delta has had higher passenger traffic due to growth in capacity • Expected to have an increase in sales for the first quarter of 2014 and lower costs
Delta Airlines • Fleet restructuring: Delta has been replacing older planes that are less cost efficient with more cost efficient planes • Employee productivity improvements used to cut costs • Demand for air travel is increasing, Delta has been able to raise prices while increasing passenger traffic
Recommendation • Buy • Calculated value of Delta is higher than the market value by $18,483 million • Analyst opinions: recommend buy or hold
