    What is the fair value of Holcim Ltd, a Swiss based building materials company? This is the central question of the following paper. Before the valuation will be performed, one has to understand the strategic and the financial background of Holcim Ltd to estimate input factors for the subsequently used Discounted Free Cash Flow (DCF) model. The strategic analysis reveals that the company is one of the big players within the Building Materials Industry and clearly follows a strategy of growth. In terms of the products, Holcim Ltd focuses its sales efforts on cement and aggregate products due to the high operating margins and the prevailing barriers of entry for competitors. The company largely increased their market presence in the Indian and Chinese market. Whereas the share of sales from the Asian Pacific market was at 9.4% in 2001, it grew to roughly 36% in 2010. However, the investments have mainly been financed by cheap debt capital which resulted in high debt to market ratios up to 54%. The associated leverage problematic has been experienced by Holcim Ltd in the wake of the financial crisis, showing interest coverage ratios which were reduced by more than half between 2007 and 2010. Holcim Ltd suffered from the hard hit of the financial crisis since construction activities were almost suspended. Sales and NOPLAT figures declined sharply due to which Holcim Ltd was urged to introduce a rigorous austerity program. This policy helped to maintain the necessary competitiveness in the industry and is seen as advantageous by the management for the expected economic upswing of the coming years.…

    Business analysis and valuation skills are useful not only for financial analysts but also for corporate managers and loan officers. Business analysis and valuation skills help corporate managers in several ways. First, by using business analysis for equity security valuation, corporate managers can assess whether the firm is properly valued by investors. With superior information on a firm’s strategies, corporate managers can perform their own equity security analysis and compare their estimated “fundamental value” of the firm with the current market price of share. If the firm is not properly valued by outside investors, corporate managers can help investors to understand the firm’s business strategy, accounting policies, and expected future performance, thereby ensuring that the stock price is not seriously undervalued.…
