This course provides a practical and structured approach to mastering Discounted Cash Flow (DCF) valuation, one of the most widely used methods for evaluating businesses, investment opportunities, and financial assets. Participants will learn the fundamental principles of valuation and how future cash flows can be used to estimate the intrinsic value of a company.
The course begins with the core concepts of the time value of money, free cash flow, equity cash flow, and internal rate of return (IRR). Learners will then explore the key financial statements, including the income statement, balance sheet, and cash flow statement, and understand how these statements support valuation analysis.
Through a step-by-step case study, participants will learn how to forecast financial performance, estimate future cash flows, calculate terminal value, and determine company value using DCF methodologies. Practical examples and real-world scenarios help learners understand how valuation techniques are applied in corporate finance, investment analysis, mergers and acquisitions, and strategic decision-making.
By the end of the course, learners will have the knowledge and confidence to build valuation models, analyze investment opportunities, and perform professional-grade DCF valuations.
