Target Price Recommendation

We recommend a 12 months target price of

scenarios.

This price is a weighted average of our target

prices obtained by discounted cash flow

analysis with perpetuity method ($78.9),

discounted cash flow analysis with exit

multiple method ($99.3), comparable analysis

($52.0) and sum of the part analysis ($50.8).

Outperforming e-commerce market

The internet and mobile revolution is driving

the e-commerce market. In 2012, US retail

sales grew at 5% while US e-commerce sales

grew at 15%. E-commerce growth is

catalysed by the development in online

payment system, targeted advertising as well

as cheaper and quicker delivery.

Upside from Marketplaces innovations

Recent innovations such as eBay Now (1 hour

delivery system), PhiSix Fashion Lab (virtually

try on clothing before purchase) and Global

Shipping Programme (discount international

shipping through economies of scale), are

motivating medium to long term growth.

International market opportunities

Expansion especially in the BRIC region is a

key growth driver for eBay, as BRIC offers

faster growth and less e-commerce

penetrated market. The world’s top 50 online

retailer’s ecommerce sales grew at a

staggering 35% in the Asia Pacific region in

2012.

Market Overview – Retail and E-commerce Industry

Economic Outlook

2013 was a difficult year for the global retail industry. Europe entered recession which lasted until the

first quarter of 2013; there were fear that the Eurozone would fail; China’s growth slowed

considerably. Although the US market showed signs of modest recovery and emerging market

growth remained reasonably strong, the overall economic environment was weak. Despite the

difficult economy, US total retail sales and US total e-commerce sales grew by 5% and 15%

respectively in 2012.

Source: www.census.gov

Source: www.census.gov

Going forward, we expect to see a continued migration of retail sales from traditional channel to

online channel, driven by mobile computing devices, cheaper and more efficient shipping

programs, and faster delivery times. We expect to see a 14.4% 2013-2023 CAGR e-commerce sales.

Market Overview – Retail and E-commerce Industry

Top 250 Global Retailers / Top 50 E-commerce Retailers Analysis

We have analysed the top 250 global retailers and top 50 global e-commerce retailers by

sales. We have analysed the growth rates and profitability by geographic regions as well as

by primary product sectors. To assess fundamental demand, the analysis excludes

facilitators like Ebay, Alibaba and Tmall. It also excludes 9 other companies including apple

whose unusually high profit distorts the results.

By Geographic Region

North America

North America makes up the largest share of

sales from the top 250 retailers with 45.2%. US

sales growth cooled from 6.3% to 4.3% in 2012.

28 of the largest 50 e-commerce retailers are

from the US. We see an above average e-

commerce penetration (12%) and a below

average e-commerce sales growth (19%).

Latin America

Latin American retailers have the highest sales

CAGR of 14.7%. Strong growth is also

accompanied by industry leading profitability

with 4.9% net profit margin.

Europe

European retailers are dragged by the

Eurozone credit crisis, resulting in slow growth

(4.5% 2012 sales growth) and high

unemployment. Despite 17 of the largest 50 e-

commerce retailers are from Europe, only 5%

of total sales are e-commerce sales.

Asia Pacific

Eurozone crisis considerably reduced Europe’s

demand of Chinese import, hurting Chinese

sales growth (4.9% 2012 sales growth). Large

and rapidly growing e-commerce companies

are driving market leading e-commerce

growth (35%)

Africa / Middle East

Similar to Latin America, Africa / Middle East

experienced strong growth 17% CAGR with

above average profitability 4.4$ net profit

margin.

Market Overview – Retail and E-commerce Industry

Top 250 Global Retailers / Top 50 E-commerce Retailers Analysis

By Primary Product Sector

Fashion Goods

Fashion Goods is the most profitable sector in

2012 as well as historically, with a 7.4% net

profit margin. It is considerably smaller than

the other product sectors except diversified

goods. E-commerce penetration is below

average (7%) possibly because customers are

reluctant to buy clothes which they haven’t

tried on. But technological advances and

cheaper return postages are mitigating this

problem, driving its e-commerce growth

(24%).

Fast-moving Consumer Goods

FMCG is the largest product sector. It enjoyed

the strongest CAGR and 2012 growth (both

5.3%). This is not surprising given demands for

food and other packaged goods are less

sensitive to the recession. Since foods are

limited by expiry dates, food retailers are less

likely to sell online, resulting in a low e-

commerce penetration (2%). However, we

see the highest e-commerce sales growth in

this sector.

Hardlines & Leisure Goods

Excluding Apple whose large profit skewed

the data, consumer electronics and

entertainment media retailers within this sector

faces a challenging operating environment,

half of which operated at a loss in 2012.

Despite this, the sector saw a 4.5% growth in

2012 and a market leading e-commerce

penetration.

Diversified Goods

This comprises of companies who did not have

a majority of sales for the three above sectors.

It is the worst performing sector in terms of

growth with CAGR of 2.3% and 2012 growth of

2.6%.

Company Analysis – eBay Inc.

Historical Performance

Source: eBay Annual Report 2014

We saw a declining sales growth for eBay

for the past 3 years. However the sales

growth of 21% and 14% in year 2012 and

2013 were both higher than its US industry

average growth of 14% and 13%, but

were lower than global industry average

growth of 22% and 18%.

Growth was mainly driven by its PayPal

business, which was actively expanding

its offline business into restaurants and gas

stations.

We also saw an increasing EBITDA Margin

for the past 3 years from 28% to 30%

Strategy Analysis

SWOT Analysis

Strength Weakness

Market leader with a Strong Brand – world’s

largest internet marketplace

Attractive Business Model – does not

compete with merchants as they do not sell

products under their own name (unlike

Amazon)

High level of innovation in market places –

including eBay Now, Global Shipping

Program, The Plaza and the acquisition of

PhiSix

Declining overall fee – driven by

competitive pressures may weaken margins

in Marketplaces, sacrificing profitability in

the short term but may bring growth into the

long term

Low margins in PayPal – driven by expansion

activities, sacrificing profitability in the short

term but may bring growth into the long

term

Opportunity Threat

BRIC expansion opportunity – increasing

exposure to high growth, less penetrated e-

commerce market

Mobile expansion – taking advantage of

the growing number of mobile shoppers

Possible slowdown of PayPal growth –

caused by a slowdown in US e-commerce

industry growth

Competition in Marketplaces from Aboard –

such as Alibaba, TaoBao, Tencent

Recent Innovations Overview

eBay Now – 1 hour delivery

Launched in 2012 in US, eBay Now allow consumer to browse, purchase and receive goods from

local merchants within 1 hour. The 2012 acquisition of Shutl is expected to enable expansion to 25 US

market as well as London by the end of 2014, enabling eBay to access ~50% of US GDP. The service

cost only $5 per delivery. It provides a way to compete with Amazon’s delivery by drones.

The Plaza – eBay online storefront

It is expected to rollout in 2014. It creates an online shopping mall for larger brands. It allows them to

design their own storefront and distance themselves from the used/second handed goods concept

that the eBay brand may bring while still benefit from the strong eBay site traffic.

Global Shipping Program

US sellers can now ship to over 40 countries worldwide by sending their parcels to the international

shipping centre in Kentucky. eBay utilises the economies of scale and reduces the cost of handling

customs, duties, taxes etc.

PhiSix

The 2014 acquisition is developing a virtual dressing room technology that allows consumers to

virtually try on clothes by sending their measurements online. This will help alleviate traditional

concerns about whether clothes purchased online will fit.

BRIC Expansion Opportunity

Figure 17

Source: eBay company report

In 2012, approximately 6 million Marketplaces active users located in BRIC. eBay stated a

goal of increasing this number by 6.5 folds. We believe eBay is able to achieve this by

making significant investment and utilising their large cash balance which stood at

approximately 9 billion by the end of 2014.

Key Operational Assumptions

Base Case

We expect strong revenue growths driven by expansion opportunity in BRIC market, the

continuing mobile revolution, and the continuing migration from retail to online sales.

We forecast modest margin improvements due to the continued investment in new innovations

and international markets, as well as higher growth in the low margin PayPal Business.

Bear Case

Bear Case reflects the possible negative impact to revenue growth due to tough competition in

the Marketplaces business and a slowdown in user growth in PayPal and Marketplaces, as well

as a generally weaker global retail market due to macro uncertainties.

Bull Case

Bull Case reflects the possible up side impact of eBay innovations (eBay Now, Global Shipping

Program, The Plaza, acquisition of PhiSix) on sales growth especially in the medium and long

term.

It also assumes continued strong user growth at Marketplaces and Payments as well as

continued strong e-commerce penetrations.

Consolidated Operational Model – Base Case

To obtain segment specific trading multiples and improve our confidence in assumption, we

have conducted our forecast for revenue growth and margins at the segment level.

Adjusted EBIT is derived from GAAP EBIT minus their pro-rated corporate cost based on GAAP

EBIT share.

Depreciation and amortization are also pro-rated based on GAAP EBIT share.

Tax Expense as a percentage of EBIT is an average from past 3 years.

Valuation

Method 1 – Discounted Cash Flow Valuation

Weighted Average Cost of Capital Calculation

CAPM is used to compute the weighted

average cost of capital for eBay.

Cost of debt is calculated from eBay annual

report.

Risk free rate is the US 10 years Government

Bond yield.

Market risk premium is calculated from S&P

500 10 years annual return less the risk free

rate.

Tax Rate is taken from the eBay annual report

As a result, we obtained a 8.6% WACC.

Our forecasted Unlevered Free Cash Flows are discounted at this WACC in the calculations

that follow in the next three pages.

The sum of the discounted free cash flows is added to the terminal value to obtain the present

value of the enterprise value. From which, we can deduce the equity value and therefore

targeted share price.

We calculated terminal value by two methods, the perpetuity method and the exit multiple

method.

Using the perpetuity method, we get target prices of $100, $79, $60 for bull, base and bear

case scenarios.

Method 2 – Comparable Analysis

Historical Trading Multiples

Comparable Analysis

Base Case

Bear Case

Bull Case

We have used 3 trading

multiples: EV/Revenue,

EV/EBITDA and EV/EBIT to

compute eBay enterprise

value.

Due to the lack of close

comparable companies, the

pricing multiples are

calculated from historical

values of eBay itself instead of

other comparable companies.

Pricing multiples are selected

using 30% mean and 70%

median of past trading

multiples to dampen extreme

points.

Pricing multiples for bear and

bull cases are decreased and

increased by 10% respectively.

From each pricing multiples

and 2014 forecasted revenue,

we have computed the

implied enterprise values.

Enterprise value obtained from

Revenue, EBIT and EBITDA are

assigned weighting of 16.7%,

16.7% and 33.7% respectively.

As a result, we get a target

price of 62.0, 52.0 and 40.5 for

bull, base and bear case

respectively.

Method 3 – Sum of the Part (SOTP) Analysis

Historical EV/Revenue multiple by Sector

SOTP

Base Case

Bear Case

Bull Case

We have used EV/Revenue

multiples for each sector to

conduct the Sum of the Part

analysis.

Pricing multiples are selected using

30% mean and 70% median of past

trading multiples to dampen

extreme points.

EV/Revenues for bear and bull

cases are decreased and

increased by 10% respectively.

We calculated the implied

enterprise value for each sector for

each case by multiplying our

forecasted 2014 revenues with our

forecasted EV/Revenue multiples.

Then we summed the enterprise

values for each sector to get the

implied firm enterprise values for

each case.

As a result, we get target prices of

57.8, 50.8 and 43.7 for our bull,

base and bear case scenario.
