From an accounting perspective, cash flow is summarized in a firm ’ s statement of cash flows. From a financial perspective, firms often focus on both operating cash flow, which is used in managerial decision-making, and free cash flow, which is closely monitored by participants in the capital market.

Firm ’ s cash flows fall into three categories: –Operating flows: cash flows directly related to sale and production of the firm ’ s products and services. –Investment flows: cash flows associated with purchase and sale of both fixed assets and equity investments in other firms. –Financing flows: cash flows that result from debt and equity financing transactions; include incurrence and repayment of debt, cash inflow from the sale of stock, and cash outflows to repurchase stock or pay cash dividends.

6 Income at different stages Operating Income: Income from firm’s regular core business. It is also called Earnings Before Interest and Tax (EBIT). – Companies can have same EBIT but different Net Income because of different Interest amount. The more debt a firm has the more interest they have to pay which changes the Net Income. – Retained Earnings represent a claim against assets. It does not represent cash and are not available for dividends or anything else, only for investing activities.

7 Income at different stages Depreciation: The charge to reflect the cost of assets used up in the production process. Depreciation is not a cash outflow. Amortization: A noncash charge similar to depreciation except that it is used to write off the costs of intangible assets. Since these are non-cash so Earnings Before Interest Tax Depreciation and Amortization (EBITDA) is also an important indicator of firm performance

All rights reserved. 4-11 Interpreting Statement of Cash Flows The statement of cash flows ties the balance sheet at the beginning of the period with the balance sheet at the end of the period after considering the performance of the firm during the period through the income statement. The net increase (or decrease) in cash and marketable securities should be equivalent to the difference between the cash and marketable securities on the balance sheet at the beginning of the year and the end of the year.

OCF may be calculated as follows: NOPAT = EBIT  (1 – T) OCF = NOPAT + Depreciation OCF = [EBIT  (1 – T)] + Depreciation

13 © 2012 Pearson Prentice Hall. All rights reserved. 4-13 Operating Cash Flow (cont.) Substituting for Baker Corporation, we get: Thus, we can conclude that Baker ’ s operations are generating positive operating cash flows. OCF = [$370  (1 –.40)] + $100 = $322

14 Free Cash Flow (FCF) FCF is the amount of cash that could be withdrawn from a firm without harming it’s ability to operate and to produce future cash flow. FCF = EBIT(1-T) + Depreciation – (Capital expenditure + Increase in NetWorkingCapital) EBIT(1-T) = Net Operating Profit After Tax (NOPAT) Capital Expenditure = Change in Long-term assets Increase in NWC = Change in current assets – Change in payables and accruals

15 Net Working Capital Current Assets are often called working capital because they are used and replaced (“turned over”) throughout the year. Net working capital = Current assets – (Payables + Accruals) – Payables and Accruals are like “free” loans since they don’t bear any interest. – NWC is the amount of money company must obtain from non-free sources to fund its current assets. – A company's net working capital is the amount of money it has available to spend on its day-to-day business operations, such as paying short term bills and buying inventory.

16 Sources of Funds Debt or Liabilities: – Long-term debt – Interest bearing. Ex: bonds, loans. – Current debt – Non-interest bearing. Ex: payables, accruals. Preferred Stock - Part of equity that is a hybrid of debt and common stock. Common Stock – Portions of ownership of a company. In the event of bankruptcy priority of payback are as follows: debt-preferred stocks-common stocks

Where: FCF = OCF – NFAI – NCAI NFAI = Change in net fixed assets + Depreciation NCAI = Change in CA – Change in (A/P + Accruals)

18 © 2012 Pearson Prentice Hall. All rights reserved. 4-18 Free Cash Flow (cont.) Using Baker Corporation we get: Thus, the firm generated adequate cash flow to cover all of its operating costs and investments and had free cash flow available to pay investors. Negative FCF means Operating Income is not enough to cover for the new ventures and the working capital FCF = $322 – $300 – $0 = $22 NFAI = [($1,200 – $1,000) + $100] = $300 NCAI = [($2,000 – $1,900) + ($800 - $700)] = $0

19 Free Cash Flow (cont.) A measure of financial performance calculated as operating cash flow minus capital expenditures. Free cash flow (FCF) represents the cash that a company is able to generate after laying out the money required to maintain or expand its asset base. Free cash flow is important because it allows a company to pursue opportunities that enhance shareholder value. Without cash, it's tough to develop new products, make acquisitions, pay dividends and reduce debt. FCF is calculated as:EBIT(1-Tax Rate) + Depreciation & Amortization - Change in Net Working Capital - Capital ExpenditureIt can also be calculated by taking operating cash flow and subtracting capital expenditures.

20 Free Cash Flow (cont.) When free cash flow is positive, it indicates the company is generating more cash than is used to run the company and reinvest to grow the business. A negative free cash flow number indicates the company is not able to generate sufficient cash to support the business. Many small businesses do not have positive free cash flow as they are investing heavily to rapidly grow their business.
