VALUATION PROCESS The Essentials….
The Process…
A typical valuation engagement lasts anywhere from 30 to 45 days.
Step 4 Build valuation models
Step 7 Present conclusions of value
Step 2 Collection of Data • Background & history • Financial statements • Budgets/Projections • Customer lists
Step 6 Prepare reports/deliverables
Step 5 Review of projections with management team
Step 8 Complete engagement and issue final reports/deliverables
Step 1 Engagement
Step 3 On-site due diligence

CONCEPTS OF VALUATION Approaches to Value
Income Approach Market Approach Asset-Based Approach
There are two widely accepted methods used under this approach: — Discounted cash flow method — Capitalized earnings method
Discounted Cash Flow Method (“DCF”)
— The DCF method involves projecting normalized free cash flows and discounting them back to present value using a discount rate
— The discount rate should reflect the degree of perceived risk associated with achieving the Company’s earnings expectations
Capitalized Earnings Method
— This approach determines the value of a business by looking at the historical cash flow results instead of expected future cash flows.
— This is done by taking historical earnings and dividing them by the capitalization rate (discount rate – growth rate)
The most widely accepted method used under this approach: — Underlying Asset Method
Underlying Asset Method — This method analyzes the individual
assets and liabilities comprising the business
— Involves the estimation of the current reproduction cost of the assets, less an estimate of accrued depreciation to reflect physical, functional, and economic obsolescence
This approach is typically not applied in the valuation of a going concern
Reserved for companies that are often in the liquidation process or comprised of large fixed assets (i.e. REITs)
There are two widely accepted methods used under this approach: — Guideline public company method — M&A comparable method
Guideline Public Company Method
— This method assesses the subject company relative to a group of similar, publicly traded companies
— Applies valuation multiples derived from this public company group to the subject company’s earnings
M&A Comparable Method
— This is another commonly used method that focuses on the terms, prices, and conditions found in sales of companies in the subject company’s respective industry
— Transactions multiples are screened and then applied to the subject company’s earnings

KEY VALUATION DRIVERS Valuation Basics
External Drivers Internal Drivers
Market multiples Growth prospects
Lending conditions Profitability
Interest rates Revenue sources
Industry trends Balance sheet
Investor psychology Intangible assets
Capital markets – debt/equity Management team
Economic policies Customer diversification
Political environment Size
International markets Capital requirements
Competition Litigation & Environmental
What do we look for…
We want to reflect the economics of…
— The Company itself
— Its competitive marketplace
— The general economy and capital markets
— Our goal is to think like investors
As such, we must look inside and outside of the Company
— Established valuation approaches, such as the income and market approach, follow these concepts
This is how the market prices stock
— Research analysts developing recommendations
— Investment bankers considering mergers and acquisitions
— Corporate development professionals evaluating acquisitions
— Sub-debt/mezzanine lenders pricing warrants on their facilities
We want to “MIMIC” the marketplace
What drives company value?

Debt-free streams provide a return on invested capital Discounting them to present value leads to INVESTED
CAPITAL VALUE Debt-free earnings streams include:
– EBIAT (earnings before interest after tax) – Debt-free cash flow – EBITDA – EBIT
Equity streams provide a return on equity Discounting them to present value leads to EQUITY VALUE Equity earnings streams include:
– Net income – Net cash flow – Earnings before taxes
7
KEY VALUATION DRIVERS Adjustments to Earnings
Examples of Adjustments/Add-backs to Earnings
Excess compensation
Non-continuing compensation
Personal (entertainment) expenses (cars, plane)
Extraordinary legal fees
Extraordinary professional fees
Significant bad debt/inventory write-offs
Income/expenses from discontinued operations
Environmental litigation/remediation
Excess employee benefits/compensation
Gain on sale of assets
Investment income
What Do We Look For…
In order to reflect an accurate representation of the Company’s true earnings, certain items may be adjusted
— Income/expenses deemed to be one-time in nature
— Expenses that are in excess of “normal” market levels
— Expenses that will no longer occur in the future
What Qualifies as an Earnings Adjustment
8
KEY VALUATION DRIVERS How Multiples Are Calculated…
EBITDA Multiple Calculation
($000’s)
Equity Value $10,000
Total Debt $2,000
Invested Capital Value $12,000
Company EBITDA $2,000
EBITDA Multiple 6.0x
(IC/EBITDA) ($12,000/2,000)
Invested Capital Value Equity Value
Net Income Multiple Calculation
($000’s)
Invested Capital $12,000
Less: Total Debt -$2,000
Equity Value $10,000
Company Net Income $1,000
Net Income Multiple 10.0x
(Equity Value/NI) ($10,000/1,000)
Income Approach

INCOME APPROACH Discounted Cash Flow Method
DCF – Looking “Inside” the Company DCF Example…
DCF modeling can vary in duration
— Single or multiple-year models are used
— Ultimately, we have to value all future years
— Typically, a “discrete” period and a “terminal value” are used
Revenue, expenses, reinvestment, and other assumptions are reflected in the DCF
Prairie uses a 10-year DCF model
What causes value change?
— Value changes directly as revenue and profitability expectations rise and fall
— Value also changes as risks and costs of capital fluctuate

(K-g) = 15.25%-4.0%

(2) K = Discount Rate, g = Long-Term Growth Rate
INCOME APPROACH Developing the Discount Rate
Discount Rate Discount Rate Example
The discount rate is used to discount future cash flow streams back to present value
— Time value of money
— Risk
We generally project the cash flow of the Company on a debt free basis
— In doing so, we use the weighted average cost of capital (WACC) to calculate the discount rate
— Projected rate of return that debt and equity holders would require to invest in this particular business
The WACC involves:
— The cost of equity (Capital Asset Pricing Model)
— The cost of debt capital for the Company
— Calculating the WACC by multiplying the returns required for each component of capital by its contribution to total capital
Determination of an appropriate discount rate cannot be reduced to a simple mathematical formula
— It requires judgment and knowledge developed from experience in securities valuation

Market Approach
MARKET APPROACH Public Guideline Company Method
Like the income approach, the market approach has “stream-defined” methods
PGC – Looking “Outside” the Company PGC Architecture…
Comparative public companies (or comparative private transactions) are selected as a representative group of alternate investments
— Price to earnings (P/E) multiples are extracted from market data
— They are applied to comparable factors for the Company
Issue in today’s market: Is our company on the same path?
Value may be a significant function of THEIR ECONOMICS
Sources of valuation multiples
— Net income
— Cash flow
— EBIT
— EBITDA
— Revenue
— Book value

Valuation Conclusions MedianIndicated Equity Value 27,115.0
MARKET APPROACH M&A Comparable Method
Continuing to Look “Outside” M&A Market Statistics…
Private company M&A transactions
— The data is derived from purchased databases or press releases
— It’s generally less reliable than public company data; however, at times, could be more indicative of current market pricing
M&A data
— Publically announced transactions (public company deals)
— Publicly disclosed transactions (private company deals)
— Summarized databases sorted by industry and company size
Some sources of M&A data
— Capital IQ
— MergerStat
— Done Deals
— GF Data Resources

— Volatility of the market place
— A subject company’s particular niche
— Growth profile of the subject company relative to the market
