In 2012, IBM finished the year with a market cap of $214 billion and an enterprise value of $205 billion. Its 12-month free cash flow in 2012 was $14.9 billion for an FCF yield of 7.3%

Today, IBM has a market cap and enterprise value of $143 billion and $169 billion, respectively. For the trailing 12 months, its free cash flow is $11.0 billion for an FCF yield of 6.5%.

Value investors look for 8% or higher, but given the 25% drop in its annual revenues over the last five years, 6.5% is pretty darn good.

Bottom Line on IBM Stock

As I said in my last article, IBM is doing a good job holding the line on free cash flow, which many investors consider to be the Holy Grail of financial metrics.

As long as it does that, I think it’s safe to assume that, at worst, IBM stock is fairly valued and worth considering as an investment given its dividend.

As of this writing, Will Ashworth did not hold a position in any of the aforementioned securities.
