Company Overview
The DIRECTV Group, Inc. is the world's leading provider of digital
television entertainment services. It markets satellite-based Pay-TV
services through two geographic business segments. Through its
subsidiaries and affiliated companies in the United States, Brazil,
Mexico and other countries in Latin America, DIRECTV provides
digital television service to 20.11 million customers in the United
States and 10.91 million customers in Latin America. DIRECTV
reported revenues of $7.7 billion in the second quarter of 2013.
DIRECTV is composed of two main operating units - DIRECTV U.S.,
and Latin America, as well as DIRECTV Regional Sports Networks.
DIRECTV U.S. is the largest direct-to-home (DTH) provider and the
second largest Pay TV provider in the United States. As of March 31,
2013, DIRECTV U.S. had average monthly revenue per subscriber
(ARPU) of $96.05.
DIRECTV Latin America is a leading provider of DTH in Latin America.
The business segment consists of PanAmericana, which provides
services in Venezuela, Argentina, Chile, Colombia, Puerto Rico and
certain other countries. It has a 93% owned subsidiary in Sky Brazil
and a 41% stake (equity method investment) in Sky Mexico.
Investment Thesis
We issue a Buy recommendation on DIRECTV with a price target of $74.09.
The target price represents approximately 6.8x the 2014E EBITDA and is an

average of the discounted cash flow and residual income analyses. While there are concerns in the medium-term
regarding the U.S. pay TV industry, the company’s solid free cash flow generation in the U.S. business, the scope of
growth in Latin American business and the management’s willingness to repurchase company shares leads us to a
positive outlook.
Integration of recent Results
Revenue growth in the 3Q13 and 4Q13 estimated to 6.2% and 5.9% y-o-y. This shows the beginning of the trend in a
possible consolidation of the cable TV industry. EPS increases to $5.04 from $4.58 (base case) and picks up slowly as the
company tries to cope with its current challenges in Brazil and the volatile FX rates.
Industry trends and competitive landscape
The U.S. Pay TV industry consists of many regional and national providers that deploy various forms of technology. As of
2012, the top 5 providers, by subscriber count, accounted for approximately 63.5% of all Pay TV subscribers in the U.S.
The industry as a whole has undergone significant change in recent years and can be characterized by primarily by
declining growth rates and markets share shifts among competitors. Since 2007, the U.S. pay industry had been terribly
affected by the macroeconomic factors. The collapse of the subprime market coupled with depressed employment rates
and weakened housing markets stunted the growth of the industry. In addition, the number of subscribers being added
is growing at a decreasing rate. In 2012, the U.S. pay TV industry added only 91,000 subscribers (versus 332,000+ in
2011), ending the year with approx. 99.8 million subscribers. )

Risks
- The U.S. Pay TV industry growth could be negatively affected by the emergence of a more disruptive
technology/business plan.
- A merger between AT&T and DISH could cost DIRECTV one of its largest reselling partners.
- Competition, economic and political instability in Latin America could negatively affect growth prospects.
- Increase in volatility in the FX rates.
Competitive Analysis
Standing as one of the industry leaders, DTV managed to beat the industry average in sales growth than its competitors
with a corresponding high EBITDA growth rate. This can highlight management’s ability to reduce costs. ROIC and ROA
are the best in the industry.

DIRECTV has a low EBITDA multiple and a low P/E ratio which makes it an appealing investment. In addition, DTV has
one of the lowest Enterprise Value per subscribers.

simultaneous increase in the operating income (lower portion) can be seen.

EVA Analysis
As can be seen below, the EVA has grown at a very steady and rapid rate from 2006 to 2012, and starts to grow at a
slower pace as in the year 2013 - 2014. This can be attributed to the problems the company is facing in Latin America
from competition and the expected industry stagnation. EVA is tied to stock return, so it is imperative to keep constant
tabs on the EVA in the future.

Arriving at the Price Target
We arrive at the price target in three steps:
- We take the prices from the three cases (Best, base and weak case) in the DCF valuation.
- We generate the prices from the three cases using the EBITDA multiple.
- We take the average of these two prices (Perpetuity and Exit EBITDA) in each of the three scenarios and finally
take a weighted average between the three cases. It should be noted that the weak case was given a 50%
weight, the best case a 10% weight and the base case a 40% weight.
- This method gives us a price target equal to $92.60, which is a 51.5% upside potential.
Perpetuity Exit EBITDA Weights Weighted Average
Base Case $105.56 $97.69 40% $40.65
Best Case $184.40 $167.21 10% $17.58
Weak Case $70.3 $67.1 50% $34.37
Equity Value Per Share $92.60
Upside Potential 51.5%

In addition, we combine this price target with the target generated from the residual income method and take a
weighted average of the two. This leads us to our conclusion price target of $74.09, which is a 21.2% upside potential.
