This PPT slide, part of the 54-slide Value Creation Framework PowerPoint presentation, outlines a critical step in forecasting future performance by emphasizing the necessity of understanding historical performance. It begins with a clear statement: "The key to making any forecast of future performance is to understand historical performance." This sets the tone for the subsequent calculations that are essential for a robust analysis.
The slide presents a sequential process, starting with "Calculate Invested Capital." This step involves assessing the total capital that has been invested in the business, which is foundational for evaluating financial health. Following this, "Calculate NOPLAT" is highlighted, indicating the need to determine Net Operating Profit Less Adjusted Taxes. This metric is crucial for understanding the operational efficiency of the company.
Next, the slide mentions "Breakdown ROIC," which refers to analyzing Return on Invested Capital. This breakdown allows for a deeper insight into how effectively the company is using its capital to generate returns. The subsequent step, "Calculate Free Cash Flow," is vital for assessing the actual cash available after capital expenditures, which is a key indicator of financial flexibility and sustainability.
Finally, the slide culminates in "Analysis and interpretation of historical performance," suggesting that the preceding calculations feed into a comprehensive evaluation of past performance. This analysis is essential for making informed predictions about future outcomes. Overall, the slide serves as a guide for executives looking to ground their forecasts in solid historical data, ensuring that strategic decisions are based on a thorough understanding of past performance metrics.
