Innovation as a Strategy

Medtronic participates in an industry where its technology is subject to rapidly advancing changes. In order to maintain leadership in these markets, it is important to continually modify and improve their existing product portfolio, and also introduce new products. In 2008 Medtronic invested over $1.2 billion, or 9.4% of sales, in research and development. Over the past five years, MDT budgeted an average 9.6% of their revenues to research and development. This is compared to competitors Zimmer and Stryker, who have historical R & D expenses of around 5% of sales. This higher R&D intensity should fuel faster growth in future years.

Cardiac Rhythmic Disease Management. MDT pioneered the modern medical device industry. They developed the first wearable external cardiac pacemaker in 1957 and manufactured the first reliable long-term implantable pacing system in 1960.

MDT has also started a clinical trial to confirm the safety of the Medtronic EnRhythm MRI SureScan pacing system. This is the first pacemaker system developed for safe use in Magnetic Resonance Imaging (MRI) machines.

Spinal and Biologics. Medtronic uses the most modern surgical techniques, including the latest Minimal Access Spinal Technology (MAST).

MDT launched the PRESTIGE Cervical Disc in 2007, which was the first artificial disc commercially

available in the U.S. for use in the neck. They also introduced the Progenix DBM, which is a bone graft substitute and bone void filler used in voids or gaps of the pelvis, ilium, and extremities.

Cardiovascular. In February 2008, MDT announced the FDA approval and the initiation of the U.S. launch of the Endeavor Resolute DES, which is a drug-eluting stent designed to inhibit the re-narrowing or re-clogging of arteries that can occur after percutaneous coronary intervention (PSI).

On November of 2007, MDT received the CE Mark approval for the Sprinter Legend Semicompliant Rapid Exchange Balloon Dilatation Catheter for use in coronary angioplasty procedures. The Sprinter Legend provides the latest innovation in balloon technology.

Neuromodulation. MDT is the pioneer in the field of restorative neuroscience, using site-specific neurostimulation and targeted drug delivery to modulate and restore nervous system function.

In June 2007, MDT initiated the worldwide launch of the Specify 5-6-5 surgical lead for neurostimulation therapy, designed to improve its effect on low back pain.

Diabetes. MDT is committed to providing improved tools and technologies to help people with diabetes live longer, healthier lives.

MDT is conducting the Sensor Augmented Therapy for AIC Reduction (STAR) trials, which will evaluate sensor-augmented insulin pumps versus traditional insulin pumps and multiple daily injection therapy.

Surgical Technologies. MDT is one of the leaders in the field of computer-assisted surgery (CAS) and has installed over 2,500 StealthStation Treatment Guidance Systems in hospitals worldwide. They have developed new and updated hardware and software solutions to assist with varied surgeries. In 2007, MDT acquired the O-arm Imaging System assets of Breakaway Imaging, LLC, a privately held developer of medical imaging systems for surgery.

Global Presence

Medtronic operates more than 250 manufacturing facilities, sales offices, research centers, education centers, and administration facilities that serve customers and patients in 120 countries.

In the 1960s, Medtronic’s international sales accounted for one-third of their total revenues. Currently, 38% of their sales come from countries outside the U.S.

Sales are divided into four main regions:

U.S. accounted for $8.3 billion, or 62% of total sales, and had 5.5% growth in 2008.

Europe accounted for $3.3 billion, or 24% of total sales, and had 17% growth in 2008.

Asia accounted for $1.4 billion, or 10% of total sales, and had 20.25% growth in 2008.

Other foreign countries accounted for $454 million, or 4% of total sales, and had 15.5% growth in 2008.

There was a 17.7% increase in international sales from 2007 to 2008.

Macroeconomic Trends that Favor MDT

With the global economic downturn and decreasing consumer spending, the growth in corporate profits has been declining in the U.S. and globally. The healthcare industry’s reputation for being more recession resistant led us to investigate potential investments in this industry.

Medtronic has demonstrated the ability to grow Revenues, Profits, Free Cash Flow, and NOPAT throughout the current challenging environment. The expected growth rates for the overall company and its segments remain positive. Additionally, the CFO has said he feels comfortable predicting a 5-8% growth this year, even with the global economic slowdown.

Growth of the older population in the world’s most prosperous regions shows the growing need for healthcare technology solutions. With Medtronic’s growing presence in countries like the U.S., Europe and Japan, we see evidence that this company is well-positioned for strong growth. As of 2005, U.S. Census Bureau estimates there are 78.2 million baby boomers. Baby boomers make up an estimated 25% of the population, with an additional 12.7% elderly over the age of 65. These two groups alike constitute the largest demographic group in the U.S.

Discounted Cash Flow (DCF) Valuation Model

Our valuation analysis uses a discounted cash flow (DCF) approach employing worst-scenario assumptions. It suggests that MDT is undervalued, with an intrinsic value of $61.54 in 2009 vs. the current stock price of $32.64.

DCF Model Forecast Assumptions Revenue Growth: The historical average annual growth rate is 10.4%. Short-term growth rate is projected at -10.0% for 2009 and 10.0% in 2010. Long-term growth rate is tapered down to 5.0% compared to Thomson-Reuter's forecasts of 11%. While the economic downturn and hospital’s shrinking budget for medical devices result in pricing pressures and sales decline in medical device industry, MDT’s CFO confidently announced the company’s prediction of 5% to 8% growth in sales (CNBC 4/30/09). Therefore, our forecast assumptions are extremely conservative. COGS/Sales: conservatively forecasted to 26%, slightly higher than the historical average of 25%. Expenses: SG&A, non-recurring and other expenses are volatile around their average rate from the past five years, and we increase each item above their historical averages, again reflecting our conservative approach to valuing MDT. Dividend Growth: is forecasted at 10.0% (avg-12.6%) to be more conservative in modeling EPS, DPS and intrinsic value per share, and more sustainable over time. Cash/Sales: is tapered down to 15.0% vs. the firm's historical average of 16.9%. Net PPE/Sales: average rate is 17.4%, we model PPE/Sales from 20.0% in 2009 to 17.0% in 2018. Intangibles, Acc. Payable, Acc. Exp: As above, we increase each item slightly higher than the historical 5-year average. Other Curr. Liab.: is tapered down to 4.0% (avg-4.6%) based on the historical decreasing trend. Weighted Average Cost of Capital Assumptions Cost of Equity: Cost of equity at 8.26% is calculated using a risk-free rate of 4%, market risk premium at 6% and beta of 0.71 (greater than the Thomson-Reuters beta of 0.6). WACC: WACC of 7.56% is calculated using respective costs of short-term and long term debt of 4% and 6%. Long-term Horizon Value Growth Rate after the 10-year explicit forecast period is 5%. Valuation Model Outputs We’ve discussed DCF model forecast assumptions and will dig deeper into MDT’s financial strength based on historical and forecast performance. Margins: The competition in the industry of medical appliance and equipment is fierce, and the margins for MDT, SYK, and ZMH are close to each other. MDT, as one of the top three players in this industry, has good margins historically, better than the industry average and S&P 500. MDT has Gross Profit Margin of 74.5%, Operating Profit Margin of 20.5% and Net Profit Margin of 15.7% in 2008. Even though margins are predicted to decrease slightly in our forecast 2009-2018, driven by conservative sales growth and costs assumptions in our model, they remain steady and consistent.

Medtronic, Inc. Xi Cheng, Jamie Coonce, Amanda Repp

Investment Returns: MDT's historical ROE and ROIC are greater than the industry and S&P 500, and are also competitive with industry comparables. Based on the conservative projection, MDT's forecasted ROA will average at 7.6%, ROE will average at 13.1% and ROIC will average at 23.4% in 2009-2018. The strong and sustainable ROA, ROE and ROIC over the past five years show MDT’s efficiency at managing growth and delivering shareholder value. In addition, the ROIC spread over the WACC of 7.56% from 2004-2018 is large and sustainable, indicating MDT is a strong and consistent value creator over time.

EVA & MVA: Economic Value Added is $1,706 million in 2009 and is projected to grow to $2,430 million in 2018 at an average growth rate of 4.2%, even according to the worst-scenario forecast. Market Value Added is $45,606 million, 1.4 times MDT's market cap of $32,490 million in 2008. MVA is forecasted to grow to $89,506 million in 2018 at an average growth rate of 6.9%. The consistent positive EVA and MVA indicate that MDT has added economic value and substantial wealth to shareholders based on the firm’s effective management and internal performance, and that the market has a history of valuing MDT at a premium. NOPAT & FCF: The consistent positive NOPAT and FCF of MDT show that, despite conservative forecast assumptions, the company has the ability to generate growing and  sustainable free cash flows at a faster growth rate than their historical trends. NOPAT and FCF are growing at an average growth rate of 5.5% and 2.8%, respectively, in the forecast period. Discounted Cash Flow Valuation: The intrinsic value of $61.54 in 2009 is higher than the current price of $32.64, suggesting MDT is currently undervalued. Even if 2009 revenues and profits conform to worst-scenario projections, MDT appears capable of delivering above-average future returns.

Medtronic, Inc. Xi Cheng, Jamie Coonce, Amanda Repp

Relative Valuation Price/Sales Ratio: MDT's Price/Sales ratio is 2.61 in 2008, consistent with the industry average of 2.60. MDT’s sales growth rate and profit margins have been less volatile than the industry, however. Price/EBITDA: The average ratio over the last five years is 20.06 and has been compressing historically. Price/Free Cash Flows: Even though the ratio is volatile historically, driven by volatility of revenue growth and free cash flows, it’s still greater than the industry average of 13.00 and S&P 500 of 9.30. It demonstrates MDT’s greater growth prospects than the industry average. Enterprise Value/EBITDA equals 14.84 in 2008, lower than its historical average of 21.17. The ratio further compresses in the forecast period. Price/Earnings Ratio: MDT’s declining P/E ratio is affected by similar trends in U.S. stocks. Investors pay less for the same level of earnings; further suggesting MDT may be slightly undervalued. Enterprise Value/EBITDA: justifies the Price/Earnings ratio that it costs shareholders less money to get the same return. Dividend Yield: is 2.33% in 2009 and is expected to range between 0.88% and 1.27% for 2009-2018 (based on higher forecasted intrinsic stock values). MDT has a more stable and faster-growing dividend yield than SYK and ZMH. EPS: is $1.86 in 2008 and is projected to grow to $3.04 in 2018 at the annual growth rate of 4.42%. The relative valuation ratios make it hard to tell which stock is the darling of the market because MDT, SYK and ZMH all have higher relative value than the market due to the fast growth in healthcare sector. It confirms that stocks in this sector are more likely to outperform through the economic recession. Moreover, MDT's higher expected growth and large spread of ROIC over WACC justify higher relative valuation.

Historical Ratios and Valuation Forecasted Ratios and Valuation

Forecasted Stock Prices Based on Historical Multiples -- 10 Years

In this section we are going to examine historical and forecasted ratios (or "multiples") typically used to value stocks ‐‐ P/CF, Enterprise Value/EBITDA, etc. We first want to compare the historical trends in these ratios to the trends in their forecasted values. If our forecasted multiples are systematically increasing or decreasing our forecasts may be too optimistic or pessimistic, and our forecast assumptions may have to be adjusted. Second, we want to compare our discounted cash flow valuation estimates with those derived from the various multiples. Once again, if there is a large discrepancy between our DCF valuation estimate of the company's stock and the range of values obtained from the various multiples, we may want to adjust our forecast assumptions. 1. You will need to look up the company's year‐end stock prices and enter them in the first 5 (historical) years of the "per share value" category.2. Use the estimated DCF price per share in the forecasted period (link to your forecasted prices in cells BG47‐BP47.3. Market capitalization will be calculated as basic weighted shares x historical year‐end prices and then forecasted basic weighted shares x DCF forecasted prices.4. As with previous calculations, historical multiples use actual historical values and forecasted multiples use forecasted values.
