The boring details
| All amounts in millions | Figures |
| Enterprise Value: | 133,324 |
| Net Debt (Long-term borrowings less cash): | -13,241 |
| Equity Value: | 89,558 |
| Number of Shares Outstanding: | 5,622,000,000 |
| Calculated value per share: | $17.92 |
Enterprise Value is the present value of the post-tax cash flows for a business into the future.
Where:
- C1, C2, C3 - the cash flow in period 1, 2, 3, ...
- r - the discount rate
To capture the cash flows into the future a terminal value is calculated via a perpetuity calculation -
based on the final years forecast post-tax free cash flow.
Where:
- Cn - the cash flow in the final forecast period.
- LTG - the long-term growth rate
- r - the discount rate
- g - the terminal growth rate
The Capital Asset Pricing Model (CAPM) is used to determine the equity component in the discount rate.
Where:
- rt - the risk free rate
- t - the tax rate
- B - the beta of the company
- MRP - the Market Risk Premium
Valuecruncher uses an estimate of Weighted Average Cost of Capital (WACC) to determine the discount rate in the calculation.

Assumptions
In 2007 $INTC had revenues of US$38.3 billion and an EBITDA margin (profits) of 35.27%. Reuters aggregates 35 analysts covering $INTC and these have mean estimates of 2009 and 2010 revenues of US$39.9 and US$42.8 billion respectively. For our analysis we have used US$39.5 billion in 2008, US$41.5 billion in 2009 and US$43.0 billion in 2010. We have forecast EBITDA margins remaining flat at 35% to 2010. We have estimated capital expenditure in the US$4.95-5.35 billion range. All of these assumptions can be amended in the Valuecruncher on-line valuation model to adjust the valuation.
Other Model Assumptions:
Discount Rate: 11.0%. We believe the discount rate is in the 9-11% range. We have used the upper end of this range to reflect the deteriorating market conditions that $INTC have signalled.
Terminal Growth Rate: 3.5%. The US economy grew at an average of 3.6% over the last five-years. We have $INTC growing at around that rate in the long-term.
