Ruskin Felix Consulting LLC partnered with Globalfy to prepare a comprehensive valuation report. The report highlights the financial viability of the project by laying emphasis on the business risk, credit risk, competition risk while also analyzing the projections. The infrastructure outlay forms a significant part of the report. To understand how financially viable the project is, we have highlighted the revenue segmentation and the past financials of the company. The financial metrics further helps to understand the NPV analysis, and the FCFF computation.
Some of the key risks associated with this type of business are as follows:
- Consistency of order pipeline.
- Low Profitability Margins
- Various Intrinsic KPI factors for business
- Relatively high competition
A higher level of risk is associated with the entertainment, production and media industry where the overall value of firms is harder to predict. Also Hit and miss projects are higher as number of clients to be attained is dependent on high cost of acquisition with low churn rate. The industry has an extremely focused and high competition-based operation metrics and one or a series of failed/unsuccessful projects can heavily jeopardize future operations and production pipeline. Thus, the overall industry and target Equity Cost of Capital used for discounting FCFFs is taken as 10%. The company also runs the risk of defaults, delays and issues arising from contracted and planned revenues in cases where the business operations will not pan out as planned and projected. The delay and non-payment of revenues by clients is also to be accommodated in the overall business risk of the company. This may adversely affect the cash flows of the leading to cutbacks, execution delays and layoffs.
