Company Assumptions & Detailed Earnings Analysis Taylor McGraw
Company Comparison • Comparing MondelezInternational to Nestle • Operate in similar industries • Have similar focus on international expansion • Major products: packaged snack foods, coffee, bottled water, gum, candy • In terms of revenue, NESN is ~3x size of MDLZ
Company Assumptions – Growth Rate • Growth rate for packaged foods industry • Projected sales growth rate: • MDLZ: 2.5% • NESN: between 3.0% and 4.0%
Company Assumptions – EPM • MDLZ EPM for 2014, onward: 13.64% (projected increase from 2013 EPM of 2.5%) • NSN EPM for 2014, onward: 10.40% (average of 2010-2013 EPM)

Future Earnings Uncertainty • Both of the companies and their competitors are likely to pursue acquisitions in the future as they seek to aggressively expand into emerging markets. • Projected to be a large source of growth for MDLZ and NESN • Accompanied by much uncertainty – could be a driver behind undervalued stock prices
Valuation Methodology & Calculations Dan Finan
Valuation Methodology • We ultimately decided to employ the Abnormal Enterprise Income Growth Model. • Residual Income was considered • Its reliance on NEA works well with the future growth strategies of Nestle and Mondelez …but the AEIG Model primarily uses forecasts within our designated time horizon to derive total estimated value, and thus provides us with the most confidence.
The Big Picture • Across the industry, domestic sales are saturated and stagnant, but emerging markets are on the verge of a boom. • Both companies plan to pursue an aggressive acquisition strategy in these emerging markets to capture significant market share. • At the moment, Mondelez’s recent spin-off hinders its growth rate.
Key Elements • Weighted average cost of capital (WACC) • Nestle: 6.42% • Mondelez: 7.84% • Growth rate of sales • Nestle: 3.00% from 2014-15, 3.50% from 2016-17, 4.00% thereafter • Mondelez: 2.50%
Our Thoughts • Both Nestle and Mondelez are undervalued. • Growth in emerging markets remains highly uncertain… …but from our perspective, population growth and the emerging middle classwill create a great deal of value for both companies.
An Earnings Call Excerpt… • Paul Bulcke, Nestle CEO: “The macro-environment in 2013 was one of soft growth, minimal in the developed world and below recent levels in the emerging markets. Our response was to increase brand support, accelerate innovation, and to ensure our pricing was sensitive to consumer needs.” Despite this nominal growth… “The emerging markets had an organic growth of 9.3%, now representing 44% of the group's sales.”
