Future Opportunities

Growing Customer Base: Under Armour has recently closed a few major deals to increase sales. Kohl’s and Sporting Direct International, United Kingdom’s version of Dick’s Sporting Goods, will begin selling Under Armour products beginning in 2017 in half of their retail outlets2. Outside of retail stores, they are growing customer by growing direct-to-customer at an impressive rate.

Source: Market Realist

International Growth: Over the past five years specifically, Under Armour’s international presence and growth has significantly increased. Last year’s overseas sales were $454M compared to 2011’s $89M1.

Products: Under Armour’s products continue to be at the top of the industry in terms of innovation. Recently, it has been with the addition of the Stephen Curry shoe line, which has grown the company’s footwear segment exponentially3. The company recently launched a new Under Armour Sportswear clothing line in an effort to enter into the normal retail clothing sector4.

We are issuing a HOLD rating for Under Armour, Inc. (UA) for the Krause Fund portfolio. This decision is based on Under Armour’s growth expectations, product innovation, and market share. Under Armour’s twenty-six straight quarter run at 20% or more quarter-over-quarter growth is impressive. We believe that this growth will continue into the future for Under Armour1. However, in the short-term, Under Armour still lacks in market share relative to the main competitor Nike. With less deep pockets and the needing to catch up, Under Armour will be required to invest heavily in the coming years. Long term, the company will perform well based off past history. In the short term, heavy investments in footwear, fitness technology, and innovative apparel will cause the company to be less profitable.

Executive Summary

Real GDP

The third quarter advanced estimate has real GDP growing at a rate of 2.9 percent. This is the fastest pace in over two years6.

Source: U.S. Bureau of Economic Analysis

The biggest drivers of the growth are seen through consumer spending, net exports, and inventory spending. If consumers are making more purchases and businesses are confident to be stocking up on inventory, it is a positive sign for retail sales going forward6. Business inventory added 0.61 percentage points, which is a great sign considering it was dragging down the number for the last 5 quarters6. Business investment, strong in Q2, is beginning to lag behind. This is due to uncertainty that is highly prevalent in the current economy6. With the election over and more news on interest rates in December, we expect a clearer picture of things to come. With a growing economy, we expect business investment to pick back up going forward.

US Retail Sales

U.S. retail sales picked back up after decelerating 0.2% in August. This was below consensus. Since then, sales have picked back up much quicker than expected, growing 0.6% in September, which beats the expectations of only 0.4%7.

Source: U.S. Census Bureau via Trading Economics

This is another positive sign for the retail space. In the last 3 months, consumers have been shying away from retail spending. In October, the consensus is that it will stay up at 0.5%. September data and October’s expectations paint the picture that the consumer is beginning to feel more comfortable spending again, which is a sign of good things to come moving forward7.

US Consumer Confidence

To further support the claim that consumers are becoming more comfortable, we took a look at the US Consumer Confidence data. In November, consumer confidence hit a 5 month high, with a reading of 91.6. This is up from 87.2 in October of 20168. Historically, dating back to 1952 the US average is 85.928. This data supports that US consumers are confident about the future and the current conditions.

Macroeconomic Outlook

Strength of the Dollar

The U.S. dollar has hit an 11-month high9. Expectations of Donald Trump cutting taxes, boosting fiscal policy, and future fed rate hikes are driving the change. Under Armour, who is currently heavily focused on international sales, will see a negative impact due to the currency headwinds. As long as the dollar continues to strengthen, Under Armour will see downward pressure on their bottom line profits. The following graph takes a look at the U.S. Dollar over the last 5 years and the last couple years shows an overwhelming trend of growing strength9. As the U.S. continues to be a strong economy relative to the rest of the world, the trend does not look like it will be reversing.

Asia Pacific

Under Armour’s presence in the region is predominately in China. China, a hot-spot for growth, has seen a slow-down in recent years. However, relative to the rest of the world, China is still growing at a rapid rate. In the September quarter, the Chinese GDP grew at an annual rate of 6.7%, which is far more than its North American counterparts10.

China has also continued to display retail sales growth within their economy. In September, retail sales rose 10.7% year-over-year10. This is the highest it has been since December 2015. According to the

Euromonitor, China will exceed the United States and become the world’s largest apparel market by 201911. The future in the region looks optimistic, so Under Armour has a tremendous opportunity if they can capitalize on their investments here.

Latin-America

Latin-America, plagued by low commodity prices, political uncertainty, and financial market volatility creates an environment that does not provide a large opportunity for Under Amour in the near future. Latin America’s economy is projected to decelerate by 0.6% this year after seeing no growth at all in 201512. With the current conditions, their does not appear to be a large consumer base for Under Armour’s products. This summer, consumer confidence fell in 6 out of the 7 countries surveyed that make up the region and have yet to pick up significantly in recent quarters12.

However, thinking longer term, Latin-America will provide another consumer base for Under Armour. Although not as large as other countries, the middle-class has grown 11% since 200112. As a region that primarily profits from exports, when commodity prices bounce and countries like China begin to pick back up, the region will start to see more favorable growth. Long term, poverty appears to be dropping, incomes continue to grow, and as the region develops, it provides an opportunity for Under Armour to grow revenue.

Europe

Europe has seen relatively slow-growth in recent years. In their most recent quarter, Q3, the economy grew at a nearly flat pace of 0.3%. Also, inflation has recently hit a two-year high with a reading of 0.4%13. ECB President has called under 1% the danger zone for inflation and attributes it to slow growth and low oil prices14. The region has adopted policies of heavy quantitative easing as they try to stimulate inflation back to 2%, address their employment bottleneck, and to start heading into a growth phase14.

Under Armour is specifically targeting the Europe market as a long term strategy to grow their brand internationally. They are primarily in the region doing partnerships with major sports programs like the Tottenham Hotspurs and Scottland’s Andy Murray. In the short term, the European economy has been slow to recover from the economic crisis and has become a place of uncertainty due to Brexit. Because of that, it does not provide an opportunity for Under Armour to make a lot of money. However, going forward, if Under Armour can grow their brand in the region, when many of the world’s largest

economies begin to recover, they will be at the forefront to take advantage of the opportunity.

Overview

Our team identifies Under Armour to be operating in the Sports Apparel Industry, which primarily consists of providing products that are comfortable and agile during physical movements. The industry is dominated by a relatively small number of companies that include: Nike Inc., Adidas, Under Armour Inc.

Source: 1010data Facts for Econ Insights

Over the past decade the sub-industry has gone through an extreme low period during the recession years. However, following the recession there has been a notable acceleration. The acceleration has been linked to the importance of globalization. With a saturated United States market, many companies are attempting to tap into emerging and foreign markets to continue economic success15.

Industry Drivers & Trends

Increasing Disposable Income:

The Sports Apparel Industry is largely dependent on consumer’s ability to afford its trendy sports apparel. Therefore, disposable income is a large driver in determining whether the industry will have strong performance. A positive outlook and growth in many countries around the world has translated into the increase of sports apparel sales. In countries such as China the overall disposable income is up to $4.7B compared to $2.8B in 2011. The United States has also seen similar growth up to $41.0B from 2011’s $37.8B. Historical evidence, pictured below, indicates that the purchasing of clothing and disposable income are directly linked17.

Source: Statistic Canada, Distributive Trade Division

Fashion Trends:

Sports Apparel and footwear sales have jumped 42% to $270B over the past seven years2. Analysts at Morgan Stanley predict that the industry could add

another $83B in sales by 2020, which is over 30% growth from today15. What we wear is dependent on the society that influences the consumers. Across the world, healthy living and fitness are becoming a more intricate part of everyday life. For example, since 1980, the United States high school sports participation rate is up from 25% to 35% today17. China is another nation where active living is becoming more and more the social norm. The Chinese government plans to build 60% more sporting facilities throughout the country in an attempt to provoke further active lifestyles across the nation17. Overall, the world society is moving away from the old fashioned styles of a couple decades ago and moving to a “ath-leisure” style, which for many is believed to be the trend of the future.

Counterfeit Products:

The sports apparel industry provides higher quality products but come with a higher end price tag. Over the course of the past decade, the industry has come under threat from local suppliers replicating the products and distributing them at a lower more affordable price. During 2010, the United States Immigration and Customs Enforcement Agency estimated that the value of counterfeit trade during that year was approximately $600M18. Specifically, in the Sports Apparel industry, Adidas lost upwards of $12M due to counterfeit products18. The exposure that the industry has with counterfeit is relatively high. Counterfeit merchandise is prevalent in all parts of the world and poses a sales threat in the Sports Apparel Industry.

Competitive Environment

Comparable Company Analysis:

Our group identified two primary competitors: Adidas AG and Nike, Inc. (NYSE: NKE). These companies were chosen based on market capitalization, sales growth, and brand recognition. The following comparisons were chosen at the

7

discretion of our team to represent the competitive industry of sports apparel. Although VF Corporation has high performance in the revenue for the sporting goods industry, we do not believe they are a direct competitor of Under Armour, because VF Corporation focuses primarily on outdoor sporting. Under Armour focuses on performance based sporting apparel.

Source: Statista

Although Under Armour is not the leader of the Sports Apparel Industr0,y there are multiple promising signs that Under Armour will soon begin to threaten Nike, Inc. for the top position. First, Under Armour is by far the youngest competitor, recently going public in 2005. The company has shown exponential growth since its initial public offering growing its revenue from $281M in 2005 to 2015 $3.96B, a 1,309% growth1. In comparison to its main competitors, Adidas has only grown sales by 155% and Nike at 136%19 20. Under Armour also has the highest growth expectations through 2018 at 25% per year growth. Whereas Nike and Adidas are expected to grow at 9.2% and 15% respectively1.

Secondly, these company’s brand image is a major part in their financial success or demise. That being said, Under Armour has many more major influential athletes that market their products21. These athletes include: Stephen Curry, Cam Newton, Jordan Speith, Tom Brady and Michael Phelps. Some argue that these athletes have been a major part of their most

recent success. Adidas is specifically lacking in this crucial segment of the Sports Apparel industry. Their most notable athletes are Derrick Rose, Ricky Rubio, and Dwight Howard. In terms of Nike’s athletic sponsorships, many would argue that they have the best athletes, such as Michael Jordan, Lebron James, and Cristiano Ronaldo. Athletic sponsorships are a very impactful way of marketing your company21.

Another field that Under Armour, Adidas, and Nike compete for in terms of brand recognition is in the sponsorship of college and professional sports teams. This is an important element due to the fact that the entire team would be wearing the company’s brand during the actual games, rather than just making commercials for the company. Colleges typically earn between $1M and $15M annually with these sponsorship contracts23. Nike has historically dominated these sponsorships with about 53.1% of college’s wearing Nike apparel on game day, compared to Under Armour’s 11.7% and Adidas’s 24.2%23. However, this may be taking a change in the coming years due to contracts expiring in the major five power conferences. A study recently done at Louisville University breaks down how much money universities earn per fan23.

This study shows that if universities are interested in earning maximum returns from the three major athletic apparel companies, that Under Armour is the best option. This is a great potential opportunity for Under Armour to pitch their company sponsorship and gain market share in the collegiate sporting universe.

Under Armour’s comparison to Nike is the most important, as Nike dominates the industry and is the purest comparable company. Most notably, Under Armour trades at a way higher premium. As a growth company, noted by their 30.09% 5-year growth rate, the future expectations are priced into the stock. On Nike’s side, they are veteran in the space. However, they are still experiencing growth and relative to the market, they trade at a slight premium as well. Nike still sees near double digit revenue growth and grew net income 6% in their most recent quarter23. Nike, as a pioneer in the space, already has the large market share that Under Armour is trying to steal. Nike had $3.07 Billion

dollars of revenue come from China and saw Chinese revenue up 21% in their recent earnings23. On the flip side, Under Armour only saw roughly 454 million in total international revenue1. In terms of growth opportunities for Under Armour, Nike is also positioned well ahead in the footwear space with 62% of the market share.

Source: The NPD Group Inc.; Retail Tracking Service

Nike is able to be more profitable, due to the lack of competition in these types of spaces, which is a big reason why they post nearly twice the net profit margin of Under Armour.

Going forward, Under Armour is going to have to continue their growth in order to keep up with Nike. Nike is clearly superior in the space, most efficient, and well established. However, if Under Armour can continue their growth, capture Nike’s market shares in key spaces, and begin to be more efficient with their investments going forward, then they have the opportunity to become the elite brand.

Porter’s Five Forces

Competitive Rivalry: HIGH

Competition is intense in the sports apparel industry. Customers can switch very easily among brands, making it a constant fight for business. Marketing and advertising becomes a huge impact as companies try to grow their brand name and differentiate from the pack. Apparel is also easily

9

duplicated, requiring companies to spend money investing in innovative and new product lines.

Bargaining Power of Suppliers: LOW

Raw materials for this industry can be supplied from numerous sources, limiting the power of the suppliers. Under Armour, Nike, Adidas, etc. are all large enough that they can make large volume deals with suppliers in numerous countries. Also, Under Armour has no contractual agreements with their suppliers, allowing them to have the freedom to move around and constantly negotiate costs1.

Bargaining Power of Customers: MEDIUM

This industry has two major types of customers: retailers and consumers. In terms of retailers, they have the ability to squeeze margins, because apparel companies rely on them to sell a large volume of their products. They have many products they can sell, with no obligation for any particular, so they demand more of the companies that want into their store. In terms of direct consumers, they have power as well. In sports apparel, there are many major brands, which allows for them to easily convert or move around. Companies like Under Armour must work with these customers, as building a loyal and strong customer base is vital.

Threat of New Entrants: LOW

This industry is extremely hard to succeed in and requires a lot of capital. This makes becoming a major player extremely difficult. Younger companies do not have the capital to afford the marketing and advertising that goes in to building a brand. Even if a company is able to afford growing, they still have to gain market share and grow in an extremely competitive environment.

Threat of Substitutes: LOW

The future of sports looks bright and the correct apparel is needed. So as long as there are sports, there will always be a need for the apparel.

Considering the history and future trends, the demand for sports apparel does not seem like an issue.

Analysis of Recent Earnings:

On October 25th, 2016, Under Armour reported better-than-expected Q# earnings. Under Armour reported earnings per share of $0.29 with $1.47 billion in revenue, which topped analyst expectations of $0.25 in earnings, with $1.45 billion in revenue2. However, the stock fell around 14% following the announcement. The sharp decline was driven by management’s guidance.

Under Armour, reporting its 26th consecutive quarter of +20% growth in revenue, has seen clearly seen tremendous growth in the past. Annual sales grew 27%, 32%, and 28% in 2013, 2014, and 2015 respectively2. Going forward, management is projecting a slowdown, with sales growth in the next two years being in the “low 20s”. The full-year 2016 revenues are projected to be a growth of 24%2.

With that being said, Under Armour still is optimistic in the future, reiterating their 2015 investor day

goals of $7.5 billion in revenue and $800 million in operating income by 20182.

Products and Costs

Under Armour is known for producing high quality products that range from hot and cold gear to footwear.

Source: Under Armour Financial Statements

A majority of Under Armour’s revenue is through the sale of its apparel1. Looking forward, this is a very positive trend due to Global Industry Analysts and Wall Street Journal’s expectation for a growth of $89B or a 7.1% CAGR of the Sports Apparel Industry17. The drivers of this growth are represented in our industry outlook. As this growth of the industry continues, Under Armour is expected to receive the benefits of this through their sales of performance based apparel.

In an effort to remain the leader of innovation in the industry, Under Armour launched a new product line this September, which tends to differ from its typical performance based 4. The new line, Under Armour Sportswear, offers customers everyday apparel such as sweaters, jeans, t-shirts, khakis, and various casual shoe styles. Although this is a major shakeup in its historical business model Under Armour has historically performed strong after the release of new products.

Source: Market Realist

Under Armour’s footwear product line last year grew by a tremendous 57% on the year to $677M24. This large growth has been linked to the Stephen Curry shoe line, which according to retailers has been taking some market share away from Nike’s Lebron James shoe line24. The addition of Stephen Curry, who is the defending MVP of the NBA, shoe line has boosted shoe line sales tremendously and Under Armour is targeting its annual footwear sales to $1.7B by 201824.

The costs to produce Under Armour products are comparable to its rivals Nike and Adidas who post Gross Operating Margins of 45.72% and 48.24% respectively, to Under Armour’s 47.30%15. In terms of the future of costs for Under Armour’s manufacturing will continue to remain about the same percentage of sales as it is now. However, lower oil prices and an increase towards direct-to-customer sales will help Under Armour increase their current profit margin of about 5.94% to be more competitive with Nike’s 11.25%. Under Armour, in terms of profit margin, is better than Adidas’s 3.27%25. Overall, Nike has a high profit margin due to a few elements that Nike, as a mature company, still has the upper hand on compared to Under Armour. One is that Nike pays a significant lower tax rate. This is because Nike produces higher revenue streams from overseas markets that have lower tax

rates26. In terms of manufacturing, Nike is moving to a more highly automated manufacturing technology, which is assisting in decreasing Nike’s labor costs by 50%26. Finally, Nike has historically had much higher direct-to-costumer sales relative to Under Armour. However, as of 2015, Under Armour has caught up to Nike’s 30% growth rate of DTC sales26. Overall, Under Armour is looking into the future with a positive outlook on lowering their costs, growing sales internationally, and increasing direct-to-costumer sales. All of these will tremendously help their profit margin in the future.

Fitness Tech:

The Connected Fitness is made up of MapMyFitness, Endomondo, and MyFitnessPal. The goal is to provide technology that helps train, perform, and improve. MapMyFitness allows users to map out, record, and track their workouts with detailed statistics. Endomondo allows users to track and share their fitness and health statistics. MyFitnessPal is a nutritional application that allows users to track their calorie count and create diet plans. Together, these applications create a greater fitness experience, while allowing Under Armour to better understand their target market. In 2015, it only accounted for 1.3% of total revenue, but it is expanding rapidly1. Connected fitness revenues grew 40% in Q3 to 20 million. They are adding 125,000 users per day and continuing to invest more27.

They are now developing and beginning to roll out the HealthBox system. They have a set of physical products including a UA band to measure heart rate, steps, and sleep, as well as a scale to track weight and body fat percentage27. They’ve also began selling a chest strap and wireless headphones that can both track your heart rate, while running. These products are relatively new, but with the fast growth they have seen in Connected Fitness, we and the company are both optimistic. Under Armour is well positioned to capture market share in the Fitness Technology space, which is a popular trend.

Catalysts for Growth

Footwear Expansion

Under Armour is seeing success in attempting to grow their footwear business. In 2012, the footwear line was only a $239 million part of the business, but now is approaching $1 billion in revenue for the firm. Footwear is outpacing apparel growth by 2.0x to 2.5x and the company is expecting that footwear could soon be larger than apparel28. In the first nine months of 2016, footwear sales increased 54% from a year ago, while apparel revenue jumped only 19%24. This year, during the back-to-school shopping season, Under Armour saw their footwear market share double28. If Under Armour can continue to grow their apparel sales and market share, then Under Armour will become very large.

International Growth

Under Armour has seen tremendous growth in international markets after expanding overseas. For example, Q3 2016 saw international revenues up 74% (80% without the effects of currency). That makes it now 15% of total revenue. This is largely due to growth in China2. When Under Armour started selling in China it was 2010 and they did about $1 million in revenue1. They are now projected over $150 million for the 2016 year (which represents a 157% increase YTD)2. Under Armour will continue this growth. They are currently only at 239 partner stores internationally, which is expanding as they are on track to have added 150 partner stores in 20162. They are also getting plenty of e-commerce business overseas, and with countries like China seeing massive growth in internet usage, Under Armour will get another international business boost.

Partnership with Kohl’s

Kohl’s will now sell Under Armour products. The CEO says this will be rolled out beginning right away in 201729. Kohl’s primary shopping demographic is

12

women29. This allows Under Armour to build on their women’s business, which is needed after a slow down.

Source: Morgan Stanley via Business Insider

The graph shows that women’s sales has seen high periods of growth in the last 3 years, but slowed down, before becoming negative in 201530. The graph demonstrates the opportunity for growth in the women’s apparel market, and the partnership with Kohl’s could recreate that opportunity30. The graph below shows how Piper Jaffrey’s survey of women revealed Kohl’s is consistently the number one choice for their clothing shopping.

Direct-to-Consumer Sales

With the closing of Sport’s Authority and the struggles of brick-and-mortar stores, Under Armour needs to be able to adapt their business model. So far, they have been doing a good job of transitioning to selling directly with consumers. This has not only allowed them to survive via maintaining sales, but it

is also more profitable being able to sell at full price, rather than working with a distributor. Direct-to-consumer revenue has grown from 14% of total revenue in 2008 to 30% in 201531.

Source: Bloomberg

Under Armour has achieved this direct-to-consumer growth primarily through the e-commerce space. E-commerce sales grew 29% in their most recent quarter31. Under Armour should continue to see this growth going forward through the expansion of their Connected Fitness platform and international growth. The Connected Fitness platform has allowed Under Armour to capture data on geographic profiles, sleep, weight, diet, and exercise, given them information to better structure their websites. In terms of websites, they have also expanded into four new countries. They’ve launched websites in Mexico, Australia, New Zealand, and Chile bringing the total to 30 global sites. These developments in technology have grown global mobile traffic, which makes up 57% of their total e-commerce traffic. In 2011, it was only 5%31. The increase in mobile-friendly technology appears to be a huge success and space for growth moving forward.

SWOT Analysis

Strengths: Under Armour’s biggest strength is their ability to maintain rapid growth. With 26 consecutive quarters of 20% or more revenue growth, Under Armour has shown no sign of a slow-down. With the CEO Kevin Plank maintaining his goal

13

of becoming a bigger business, but still growing fast, we think that Under Armour has a strong future.

Weaknesses: Their biggest weakness is that Under Armour is still so heavily dependent on retail stores. Although they are beginning to transition, it still is a weakness for the company, as brick-and-mortar stores are not performing well.

Opportunities: Under Armour’s biggest opportunity is in the growth of their international sales. The growing middle class and sports apparel industry offers opportunities to continue capturing new markets. Under Armour also has the opportunity to capture the footwear market. With the help of Stephen Curry’s new shoe line, they have seen great success and the opportunity to get closer to Nike.

Threats: Competition in the space is their biggest threat. A veteran Nike company has far greater market share and efficient operations. Under Armour needs to invest heavily both nationally and internationally to effectively compete with Nike swoosh. Heavy investment poses a risk and requires significant capital for the company.

Although we used various valuation method’s such as the Discounted Cash Flow Method, Economic Profit Model and Dividend Discount Model, we have come to the conclusion that our DCF analysis has provided the best valuation going into the future of Under Armour. Throughout all of our valuation models we have moved our intrinsic value of the stock forward to November 14, 2016.

Forecasting Revenues

Revenue Decomposition

Our team broke down revenue into two distinct different categories, based on product type and geographic location. Forecasting our revenues, we believe that Under Armour will continue to go a relatively historical rate in the coming years. We made this assumption based on their consistent revenue growth numbers over the course of the last twenty-six quarters. Another reason why we continue their growth at such an elevated level is due to expectations that the Sports Apparel industry is expected to grow by an additional $83B in sales by the year 2020.

Product Revenue Decomposition

We believe that Under Armour’s continued speed of growth is due to their capitalization of the footwear product. The numbers we forecasted are aligned with management expectations in the future with footwear sales at $2.0B compared to our forecast of $1.85B by 2018. Another product we expect significant growth is Connected Fitness. Under Armour was able to reach their ambitious goal of 165 million users by the end of 2016. That, in combination with the results in the recent quarter,

Valuation Analysis

gave us proof of concept and steady strong growth in the future.

Geographic Revenue

We grew international revenue as a percentage of their total sales going forward. We increased that percentage going forward after examining the growth of Nike’s international revenues. Nike now has over 50% of their revenues coming from overseas. We ended with, and believe, that ten years from now Under Armour will have followed a similar path and will have 30% of their revenues coming internationally.

Cost of Goods Sold

We kept the cost of goods sold at the same percentage of sales it has been historically, which is 49.42%. We liked this number, because in the last 5 years, it has never been more than 0.50% different on either side. This demonstrates its consistency historically. Going forward, we have no reason to believe it will be adjusted by more. Under Armour has no set contracts with suppliers and hedges the risk of price fluctuations. Also, as a young company, they are still not a mature enough position to sacrifice any quality or bargain as much with suppliers. Also, we examined the cost of goods sold for Nike. There cost of goods sold is nearly 54% of revenue every year exactly. This led us to believe that cost of goods sold remains relatively constant with these companies and there was not much room for Under Amour to improve on cost.

Weighted Average Cost of Capital

Our weighted average cost of capital came out to be 12.56%. The value was heavily influenced by the cost of equity, as the weight of equity and debt is 93.6% and 6.4%, respectively.

Cost of Equity:

We used the CAPM model to derive the cost of equity. We used the Bloomberg terminal, and looked

at historical data to derive the beta calculation. We also used the terminal to calculate the expected return on the market. We then used the closing price of the 30-year treasury as of 11/14/2015 in order to derive our risk free rate. We used these values to derive a value of 13.19%.

Cost of Debt:

We used the default spread on Under Armour’s Baa2 rating and the risk free rate to calculate their pre-tax cost of debt. We then adjusted for taxes to find the after tax cost. We reached a value of 3.54%

Discounted Cash Flows and Economic Profit

The model that we are most confident in is are these two. The intrinsic value we derived from them is $37.10 dollars a share as of 11/14/2016. This puts the value $5.93 above the closing price of that day, which means there is approximately 19% upside. We believe this model is the best way to value a company, especially since they do not have dividends. We strongly believe in our future projections for the company and prefer these models, because they greatly impact this valuation.

Dividend Discount Model

We completed the Dividend Discount Model and derived the intrinsic value of the stock at $13.98. We believe that the Dividend Discount Model is not an accurate representation of the intrinsic value of the stock. The Dividend Discount Model is not accurate because our company does not currently pay out dividends, nor has it ever historically. We do not see any indication that Under Armour will be paying out dividends in the near future.

Relative Valuation

According to the relative P/E analysis, the price of Under Armor’s stock based on 2016’s EPS should be $48.94. This is much higher than the current stock price. The industry trades at an average P/E ratio of 29 in 2016. We believe that this number is abnormally high, considering it normally trades around a P/E ratio of around 18. The high multiple of the industry is hard to justify, and we are not putting much weight on this result.

Beta vs. Risk Free Rate

This analysis shows that when volatility is low and the risk free rate is low that Under Amour is worth a lot more. This leads us to believe that in a stronger market, where investors are confident in the market and the bond yields are low, then Under Amour’s stock will perform exceptionally well. However, Under Armour does not do well in a high risk environment. The company has a lot of growth expectations priced in and trades at a high multiple so if volatility picks up then there are drastic price movements.

CV Growth of ROIC vs CV Growth of NOPLAT

This analysis shows that there is not a whole lot of upside if Under Armour becomes more efficient. Under Armour lags Nike in terms of returns on investments. We wanted to see how beneficial it would be for them to become more efficient. We concluded that it is was significantly beneficial to improve upon their steady phase efficiencies.

WACC vs CV growth of NOPLAT

WACC is an important measure to analyze with Under Armour, because it is almost entirely made up of the cost of equity. We wanted to look at what

would happen if Under Armour was growing slower than expected in the long term, but they were able to decrease WACC. The table shows that WACC is far more significant than long term growth. If the company can lower their WACC, it will dramatically increase the Valuation.

COGS as % of sales vs SG+A as a % of sales

These two costs are critical to Under Armour so we wanted to evaluate how it drives their valuation. We found that these costs are nearly identically significant as valuation drivers. They are both highly sensitive and even 0.5% moves in either direction for both costs can change the valuation by a significant amount. If Under Armour can lower these costs in the future, which is a difficult task in the industry, it could create significant value.

Beta vs. Equity Risk Premium

Being that Under Armour’s WACC is nearly almost entirely cost of equity, the beta and equity risk premiums are two of the most influential drivers of the discount rate. If Under Armour’s beta, moves closer to 1.00 then it moves the intrinsic value to over $63 per share. Under Armour, being a high-growth stock, carries a lot more risk than other companies. If it can capture the trust of investors and increase stability, then they have an opportunity to gain massive upside.
