I need help with a research project on Thermo Fisher Scientific for Managerial Finance.

1.The project will include written (typed) information and spreadsheets using excel.Use Appendices as needed.

The project shall include:

• Brief introduction/background of the company
• A financial analysis, including current position.

o ratios, Profit margins, ROE, EPS, P/E ratios, etc.

Use comparative ratios, including other firms or the industrial ave. or both

• A modified income statement(most current)(use excel)
• A modified balance sheet(most current)(use excel)
• Cost of Capital (WACC)
• Overall Valuation of the firm (include an intrinsic analysis)
• Historical stock price (graph)
• Summary andprojectedfinancial status5 years from now*(use excel)

Keep the financial statements simple!(Just use key line items, and make estimations).

Estimate the Cost of capital.This can be used to assist in valuing the firm.Use cost of capital and capital structure information andvaluation techniqueslearned in the class.

The projection will take some analysis on your part - what is thecurrentfinancial status of the company and what are thefuture prospects?Ensure you explain your reasoning for the projected position.Explain what the financial ratios mean. (Too much debt, not enough sales, excessive costs, excellent growth rate, etc.).What are theprojectedrevenues?Projectedcosts? New products?(Expansion possibilities)?.What will economic conditions be like 5 years out? etc.

Discuss the firm's valuation; does it seem to be valued correctly?Show the numbers!And, include in your recommendation;would you buy stock in this companyif you were planning to hold onto it for 5 years?In other words,what price do you expect the stock will be in 5 years?Compare the price of the stock with the intrinsic value.(Again, justify stock prices with numbers such as the PV of future cash flows.)

Be creative, Make your own assumptions based on logic (and let me know what your major assumptions are).

Always use proper citations, including with any financial statements or tables.Use ADP format.
