DCF Model Feedback/help

Hello,

Not sure if this is the correct area to post this (I haven't been on here in ages) but I would like some feedback on my DCF model.

The analysis tab has the financials from the SEC website. I analyzed the quarterly income numbers for two years and also the annual numbers for 5 years. This helped me see operating/net income margins, tax rate, and also the y/y percentages. I also calculated the FCF on this page as well. I did two types, simple FCFE (FCF from operations - Capex) and FCFE that included net borrowings.

On the model tab, I take the historical revenue numbers and project future revenues using a growth rate. I then multiply this projected revenue by the average net income margin to get projected net income. Then i multiply by the FCFE rate to get projected FCF.

I calculated WACC & terminal value (I used a perpetual growth rate of 2%) then used WACC to discount my projected FCF & terminal value to present value.

Once i get the present value i add this all up and divide by the shares outstanding.

I am just looking for some feedback on how this model is and anywhere that it can be improved.

Thanks!!
