Risk & Reward in Aircraft Backed Finance
Modeling Aircraft Loan & Lease Portfolios 3rd revision Discussion Notes October 2017 Modeling Aircraft Loans & Leases Discussion notes December 2013 2 PK AirFinance is a sub-business of GE Capital Aviation Services (GECAS). The company provides and arranges debt to airlines and investors secured by commercial aircraft. Cover picture by Serge Michels, Luxembourg. 3 Preface These discussion notes are a further update to notes that I prepared in 2010 and revised in 2013. The issues discussed here are ones that we have pondered over the last 25 years, trying to model aircraft loans and leases quantitatively. In 1993, Jan Melgaard (then at PK) and I worked with Bo Persson in Sweden to develop an analytic model of aircraft loans that we called SAFE. This model evolved into a Monte Carlo simulation tool, Lending EDGE, that was taken into operation at PK in 2012 and validated under ISRS 4400 by Deloitte in 2013. I have now made some corrections and amendments to the previous version, based on helpful feed-back from industry practitioners and academics. I have added a section on Prepayment Risk in loans and expanded on Jurisdiction Risk. My work at PK AirFinance has taught me a lot about risks and rewards in aircraft finance, not least from the deep experience and insight of many valued customers and my co-workers here at PK and at GECAS, our parent company, but the views and opinions expressed herein are my own, and do not necessarily represent those of the General Electric Company or its subsidiaries. In preparing these notes, I have been helped by several people with whom I have had many inspiring discussions. -

Real Options Valuation As a Way to More Accurately Estimate the Required Inputs to DCF
Northwestern University Kellogg Graduate School of Management Finance 924-A Professor Petersen Real Options Spring 2001 Valuation is at the foundation of almost all finance courses and the intellectual foundation of most valuation methods which we will examine is discounted cashflow. In Finance I you used DCF to value securities and in Finance II you used DCF to value projects. The valuation approach in Futures and Options appeared to be different, but was conceptually very similar. This course is meant to expand your knowledge of valuation – both the intuition of how it should be done as well as the practice of how it is done. Understanding when the two are the same and when they are not can be very valuable. Prerequisites: The prerequisite for this course is Finance II (441)/Turbo (440) and Futures and Options (465). Given the structure of the course, no auditors will be allowed. Course Readings: Course Packet for Finance 924 - Petersen Warning: This is a relatively new course. Thus you should expect that the content and organization of the course will be fluid and may change in real time. I reserve the right to add and alter the course materials during the term. I understand that this makes organization challenging. You need to keep on top of where we are and what requirements are coming. If you are ever unsure, ASK. I will keep you informed of the schedule via the course web page. You should check it each week to see what we will cover the next week and what assignments are due. -
Uva-F-1274 Methods of Valuation for Mergers And
Graduate School of Business Administration UVA-F-1274 University of Virginia METHODS OF VALUATION FOR MERGERS AND ACQUISITIONS This note addresses the methods used to value companies in a merger and acquisitions (M&A) setting. It provides a detailed description of the discounted cash flow (DCF) approach and reviews other methods of valuation, such as book value, liquidation value, replacement cost, market value, trading multiples of peer firms, and comparable transaction multiples. Discounted Cash Flow Method Overview The discounted cash flow approach in an M&A setting attempts to determine the value of the company (or ‘enterprise’) by computing the present value of cash flows over the life of the company.1 Since a corporation is assumed to have infinite life, the analysis is broken into two parts: a forecast period and a terminal value. In the forecast period, explicit forecasts of free cash flow must be developed that incorporate the economic benefits and costs of the transaction. Ideally, the forecast period should equate with the interval in which the firm enjoys a competitive advantage (i.e., the circumstances where expected returns exceed required returns.) For most circumstances a forecast period of five or ten years is used. The value of the company derived from free cash flows arising after the forecast period is captured by a terminal value. Terminal value is estimated in the last year of the forecast period and capitalizes the present value of all future cash flows beyond the forecast period. The terminal region cash flows are projected under a steady state assumption that the firm enjoys no opportunities for abnormal growth or that expected returns equal required returns in this interval. -

The Cost of Capital: the Swiss Army Knife of Finance
The Cost of Capital: The Swiss Army Knife of Finance Aswath Damodaran April 2016 Abstract There is no number in finance that is used in more places or in more contexts than the cost of capital. In corporate finance, it is the hurdle rate on investments, an optimizing tool for capital structure and a divining rod for dividends. In valuation, it plays the role of discount rate in discounted cash flow valuation and as a control variable, when pricing assets. Notwithstanding its wide use, or perhaps because of it, the cost of capital is also widely misunderstood, misestimated and misused. In this paper, I look at what the cost of capital is trying to measure and how best to avoid the pitfalls that I see in practice. What is the cost of capital? If you asked a dozen investors, managers or analysts this question, you are likely to get a dozen different answers. Some will describe it as the cost of raising funding for a business, from debt and equity. Others will argue that it is the hurdle rate used by businesses to determine whether to invest in new projects. A few may use it as a metric that drives whether to return cash, and if yes, how much to return to investors in dividends and stock buybacks. Many will point to it as the discount rate that is used when valuing an entire business and some may characterize it as an optimizing tool for the deciding on the right mix of debt and equity for a company. They are all right and that is the reason the cost of capital is the Swiss Army knife of Finance, much used and oftentimes misused. -
