25
Company Analysis Current News Listing on Nasdaq from NYSE due to cost efficiencies Change of fiscal year end to September 2011 Paramount Picture is set to integrate its DVD and Blu-ray disc sales unit along with its digital video licensing division to create a brand new division called the Home Media Distribution (As of Sept, 2011) Shift its staff from London to the Los Angeles unit Development of its own animation unit
26
Total Asset of Viacom(2011)
27
Financial Risk Interest Payable Debt Ratio is 32% (2012) Adjusted Debt Ratio(by Taking Out Goodwill and Intangible) is 65% Seems Safe from Financial Risk Unit: Mil. ($) Source: 10-K 2011
28
Capital Returns to Shareholders Stock Repurchase Program 7.2 Billion Dollars more will be used to repurchase Current Mar. Cap. for Class B Stock is 24.72 Bil. Current Shareholders will benefit from it, but it also shows that Viacom can’t find growth in its business
29
Capital Returns to Shareholders Dividend - Viacom started paying dividend from 2010. (Payout Ratio is 21% for 2011) - Along with Repurchase Plan, Current Shareholders will benefit from growth in Dividend Per Share - But we think dividend policy is another evidence that shows VIACOM can’t find growth in business
30
What about the business? Good cash-cow, but suspicious about its future growth The recently started dividend policy and repurchase agreement is an evidence that VIACOM can’t find growth in its business Also, absence of voting right will make the stock treated as preferred-stock or bond asset
31
Valuation
32
DCF/Multiple Valuation? VIA Full Voting Rights One Portion of Dividends Full Voting Rights Total Dividends Common Stocks VIA-B No Voting Rights The other Portion of Dividends
33
Synthesized Common Stock? VIA Full Voting Rights 1/11 of Total Dividends VIA-B No Voting Rights 1/11 of Total Dividends
34
Synthesized Common Stock? If we can … – DCF – P/E = (PA + 10 PB)/(11 EPS), multiple valuation But … – The company is repurchasing Class B stock – Very low trading volume of Class A stock
35
What we do For class A, difficult to evaluate voting rights premium For class B, treat it as preferred stock or annuity – Use dividend discount method – See excel file
36
Recommendation Stock value: $38.33 Stock Price: $44.76 Put it on watch list
