Overview

DCF Valuation by Stewart Kennedy is a definitive guide for investors who want to understand what drives the real worth of a business. This book moves beyond surface-level market noise and teaches readers how to think like owners, not speculators. It explains how value is created, measured, and interpreted through one of the most powerful tools in finance-the Discounted Cash Flow (DCF) model. Written with clarity and depth, the book begins by exploring the foundations of intrinsic value and the philosophy that separates true investing from speculation. It guides readers through the logic of the DCF framework, the role of cash flows, the importance of the discount rate, and the impact of long-term growth assumptions. Each concept is explained in plain language and supported by thoughtful examples that connect theory to real-world investing. Readers learn how to build a complete DCF model from the ground up: forecasting future cash flows, estimating the cost of capital, determining terminal value, and translating enterprise value into equity value. Stewart Kennedy also examines the psychology behind market prices and shows how behavioral biases often cause prices to drift away from intrinsic worth. He helps investors recognize these opportunities with discipline and confidence. Throughout the book, Kennedy combines analytical rigor with timeless investing wisdom. He reminds readers that valuation is not about precision but about clarity of thought. By the final chapters, the DCF model becomes more than a financial tool-it becomes a philosophy for rational decision-making, patience, and long-term wealth creation. Whether you are a professional analyst, a student of finance, or an independent investor seeking to master valuation, DCF Valuation: The Investor's Guide to Intrinsic Worth provides everything you need to understand, apply, and trust the process of determining what a business is truly worth.
