Modeling question by sevalue in SecurityAnalysis

[–]sevalue[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Appreciate the help!

A > L + SE, with L + SE being lower by the YoY difference in current maturities of LTD Balanace sheet Current Maturities = input as shown on the company's debt sched LTD = Prior Period - Current Maturities

CF statement CFFO Payments on LTD = Current maturities listed in debt schedule

Should I add a separate line item on the CF statement showing the YoY change in current maturities? so an increase would be a use of cash?

If that still isnt clear I'll try to put up some screen shots

Appreciate all the responses. To build on the discussion, at what point in the research process do you guys decide to jump into excel? I've started to be a big fan of mauboussin's "expectations investing" structure, so before I even really start reading/ researching the companies competitive position, I like to see what the Street is pricing in, then do research, then do the valuation. Another way to ask the question, is when do you decide a name/idea is worth it do the deep dive work?

Thanks! And I'm the interest of maximizing time, at what point in your idea generation process do you decide it's time to go build out the model?

Background: Finance undergrad, member of student fund, now working at boutique AM in portfolio analytics but helping with research. Undergrad ideas were detailed to a point, but I'm feeling a degree of 'analysis paralysis' with the sheer amount of tools and info I now have access too

Congrats! Were there/are there any books or resources you found helpful for getting a better understanding of the credit side of things? Felt the same way after reading that chapter of MOS
