== Projects ==
Rolls Royce have a plethora of fascinating projects underway at the moment- we have selected a few to highlight the innovative and adaptive nature of the company. 

'''Space:'''
[[File:Screenshot 2023-08-05 at 23.27.53.png|thumb|This is an image of the nuclear power reactor Rolls Royce are testing and hoping to power future missions to Mars/the Moon. ]]
Rolls Royce is working on a two-stage-to-orbit system eg. gas turbines to power hypersonic planes that will take payloads to low Earth orbit, as well as nuclear thermal propulsion* solutions to power fast, efficient rockets for space travel. The gas turbines will take the aircraft into low Earth orbit by combining propulsion systems with a gas turbine and ramjet technologies*. 

They are also working on producing small reactors (micro reactors) which will use clean, nuclear energy to power the bases that will be set up on the moon. A regular rocket would require tonnes of fuel to reach the demands of Moon/Mars inhabitants however Rolls Royce’s nuclear reactors only use a few grams of uranium so the systems are lighter and can carry a higher payload whilst maintaining clean energy standards. The reactors will also have an extremely long product life-span as it relies on the natural decay of Uranium which takes decades. 

Rolls Royce is undertaking this project since the current goal for space exploration is to inhabit the Moon/ Mars by 2030. Rolls Royce are currently in their product development and testing phase with this project which are showing promising results. This project is funded by the UK Space Agency

'''Small Molecular Reactors (SMR):'''
[[File:Screenshot 2023-08-05 at 23.33.31.png|thumb|This is an image of the factory which will generate  470 MW of nuclear, low carbon, clean and sustainable energy to almost 1 million homes in the UK. ]]
In light of the Russia-Ukraine war the UK government has increased investments into the UK energy sector, especially clean energy with the aim of reducing energy dependency on other countries. Rolls Royce are attempting to distribute nuclear reactors which provide scalable, cost competitive and widely available nuclear energy. 

Rolls Royce SMR have produced a repeatable factory-built power station which has been tested for its usage of nuclear power. The factory’s reproducible status has allowed Rolls Royce to hopefully have the same factory design internationally in Estonia, Turkey and the Czech Republic. The project is predicted to generate £52 billion in economic benefit and 40,000 regional UK jobs by 2050. 

The SMR will generate roughly 470 MW of low carbon energy which is equivalent to more than 150 onshore wind turbines. It will provide consistent base load generation for at least 60 years, unlike wind turbines which have an average lifespan of ~ 20 years. The power station will be able to support both on-grid electricity and a range of off-grid clean energy solutions on top of providing clean energy for ~ 1 million homes.<ref>https://www.rolls-royce.com/innovation/small-modular-reactors.aspx#/</ref>
 


'''Hydrogen Engines:'''
[[File:Screenshot 2023-08-05 at 23.40.30.png|thumb|This is an image depicting the hydrogen fuel cells which will hopefully be used in air travel to reduce CO2 emissions, noise pollution and costs of aircraft construction. ]]
Rolls Royce is also releasing a brand new hydrogen engine programme. They will be carrying out a series of rig and engine tests which validate the efficiency of hydrogen engines for small-mid sized aircrafts. If this programme is successful the firm will move to phase II- the flight test phase. The programme began in 2022 with testing on the Rolls-Royce AE 2100 engine in the UK with a followup with the Rolls-Royce Pearl 15 jet engine with an indefinite date. This project was inspired by market research carried out at UK Aerospace Technology Institute’s Fly Zero team which emphasised the market value of hydrogen engines in aircraft.<ref>https://www.rolls-royce.com/innovation/net-zero/decarbonising-complex-critical-systems/hydrogen.aspx</ref>  

'''Urban Air Mobility:'''

Urban air mobility represents a revolutionary market which has not yet been commercialised but is in its growth stage. The market is predicted to be worth over one billion pounds by the mid 2020s (hopefully 2027). The products are air taxis and electric, plane like vehicles which can transport up to four people at a time.  The aim of these vehicles is to cover distances in a shorter amount of time, in a clear and more cost effective manner- the propulsion systems put in place by Rolls Royce will help meet these standards.  
[[File:Screenshot 2023-08-05 at 23.31.26.png|thumb|This is an image of what the urban air mobility vehicles will look like. ]]
The electric propulsion unit for urban air mobility will be the direct-drive, air cooled 320 kW electric motor. The Torque* to weight ratio of up to 28 Nm/kg because of the engines integrated design and thermal management. This makes the engine highly adaptive and reliable. The energy storage system has been designed for utmost safety- it is composed of a lithium-ion battery with 2-10 module modules with 60-300 kWh capacity and 520-860V nominal voltage. 

Although there is a lot of competition amongst large firms like Rolls Royce and also smaller start-ups, when Rolls Royce’s profound history in the aerospace industry is taken into consideration they are much more inclined to deliver more reliable, scalable and safe vehicles.

== Corporate Strategy ==
Rolls Royce is aiming to streamline its operations following the challenges posed by the impacts of the pandemic, higher energy costs, and constrained supply chains. The company is conducting a comprehensive overhaul of its operations which can be summarised by three key points.

'''Delivering on our commitments''' 

During a previous fund-raising round, Rolls Royce made several commitments to improve the long-term health of the business.

'''Rebuild the balance sheet and gain an investment grade credit rating'''

Given the previous challenges, Rolls Royce is currently in a precarious financial situation with its credit rating currently rated at BB.  The company is currently carrying out a restructuring programme by consolidating noncritical divisions, reducing headcount, and reorganising debt. Moreover, there are several agreements that will raise £2 billion from nuclear disposals.

'''Maximise value from existing capabilities'''

Since the technologies and customer base of Rolls Royce have been built over many years and are expected to last a long time, Rolls Royce is planning to support existing products and maximise their lifespan. Through this strategy, Rolls Royce hopes to assist customers with net zero ambitions, generate value and provide cheap updates.

'''Seizing opportunities for growth''' 

The defence industry is looking to reduce its carbon footprint providing new avenues for Rolls Royce to provide services such as sustainable fuels or powerplants. Additionally, several sectors ranging from aerospace to power systems are in the process of targeting net zero emissions by 2050. This would require Rolls Royce to be innovative to target these segments by investing more in green technologies.

== ESG Factors ==

=== Environmental ===
Like many other companies in this space, Rolls Royce is committed to reducing company operations emissions to net zero by 2030. They also have a further target to assist the entire aerospace sector to achieve net zero by 2050.The plan to achieve net zero is to retrofit old buildings to become energy efficient, installation of low-carbon technologies in all factories, and implement a closed-loop recycling programme for materials.

=== Social ===
Many of Rolls Royce’s projects have a wide impact on several communities hence it is important to have a proper plan for stakeholder engagement.The views of affected stakeholders are taken into consideration by the teams closest to the project. These teams communicate regularly to ensure that stakeholders' concerns are addressed and heard by the company.

==== Identifying stakeholders ====
Stakeholders are identified and classified based on project scopes and are categorised below

•          Groups directly or indirectly affected by company operations

•          Groups with an existing economic, social, or environmental responsibility or relationship

Stakeholders are managed by various methods as listed below

•          Press Releases

•          Publications such as Annual Report

•          Membership in industry bodies

•          Surveys

•          One-to-one dialogues or consultations

=== Governance ===
Rolls Royce is governed by an independent board of directors who are responsible for overseeing the operations of the business. Within the board, there are executive and non-executive directors. Executive directors are in charge of managing the business at a high level with the CEO responsible for the day-to-day operations.

Non-executive directors have the same legal responsibilities as executive directors, but they deal with more low-level operations such as assessing performance and ensuring targets are met. They also oversee risk management and financial controls to reduce operational risk for Rolls Royce.

Looking at the half year performance of Rolls-Royce, it is clear that there has been significant growth for the company. Revenue has grown by 28% compared with last year, while gross profit has seen a growth of 55%, due to a reduced COGS margin. The growth in revenue was predominantly driven by the Civil Aerospace, Defence and Power Systems segments. The EBITDA has doubled, while the operating income has increased by more than 5 times. These encouraging and rapid growths have been primarily driven by the growth in the revenue, with the airline industry looking to bounce back from the slow-down in economic activity as a result of COVID-19. Airlines have a greater demand for new aircraft, and so aircraft manufacturers have a new demand for civil aircraft engines such as the Trent series (Trent 1000 and Trent XWB form 100% of the market for engines used on the Airbus A330neo and A350)

The end of the recent year (FY-22) saw a recovery in the revenue generated. Pandemic years of -20 and -21 saw consecutive drops in the revenue as a result of reduced demand. In 2022, Rolls-Royce received new large engine orders from Malaysia Aviation Group, Norse Atlantic Airways and Qantas. The Bell V-280 Valor, powered by their AE1107F engines, was selected by the US Army for the Future Long Range Assault Aircraft programme. Order intake in the Power Systems segment grew by 29% to £4.3bn. This included mission critical backup power services for their engines.

Revenue is expected to reach pre-pandemic levels by 2025, and continue growing steadily after that. The gross margin is expected to grow gradually, following a reduction in the COGS as outline in the valuation section. 

Net income was calculated by projecting the taxes and interest expenses. Interest expenses were taken as fractions of the total debt. They were projected to be at a slightly higher than average 3% for 2023 and 2024, before slowly dropping to 2%, reflecting the higher interest rate imposed by the Bank of England, as an attempt to kerb inflation. However, holding the expectation that this attempt is successful, interest rates should drop by 2025 (conservative estimate)<ref>[https://www.thetimes.co.uk/money-mentor/article/when-will-interest-rates-go-down-uk/#:~:text=So%20when%20will%20interest%20rates,over%20the%20next%20five%20years. https://www.thetimes.co.uk/money-mentor/article/when-will-interest-rates-go-down-uk/#:~:text=So%20when%20will%20interest%20rates,over%20the%20next%20five%20years.]</ref>. Tax projections can be seen below in the valuation section. The net income projections are in line with Capital IQ analyst projections.

== Valuation ==

=== What's the expected return of an investment in the company? ===
The Stockhub users estimate that the expected return of an investment in Rolls-Royce Holdings plc over the next five years is '''negative 1%'''. This value was arrived at through the use an intrinsic valuation in the form of a discounted cash flow model.

Assuming that a suitable return level of five years is 10% per year (based of the S&P 500 returns) and Rolls-Royce achieves its return level of negative 1%, then the company can be considered, within fair margins, as fair-valued.

=== What are the assumptions used to estimate the return? ===

|Valuation Model
|Discounted Cash Flow and Comparable Company Analysis
|Two main approaches can be used to estimate the value of an investment:

# One form of intrinsic valuation is the discounted cash flow model where future cash flows are discounted to the present value.
# Comparing key financial metrics of the company to other similar investment

Research has suggested that to estimate the expected return of an investment over a long-term investment horizon, a discounted cash flow model provides an accurate projection.

|Financial Projections
|Stockhub, CapitalIQ, Yahoo Finance
|To improve the reliability of financial projections, a mixture of sources was used when projecting key financial metrics such as revenue.
|-
|Discount Rate
|WACC
|The weighted average cost of capital was used as the discount rate as it expresses the return that both bondholders and shareholders demand to provide the company with capital. The cost of equity and cost of debt have been calculated in the tables provided below using values taken from the company's financial statements, beta for the stock, and expected market returns.

==== Notes regarding the values used in the forecasting ====

* All historical data, such as from the income statement and cashflow statement, was taken from Capital IQ, and cross-referenced with Yahoo Finance as well as Rolls-Royce investor presentations
* Revenue projections were taken from Capital IQ, and cross-referenced with Yahoo Finance.
** Following the 2023 Half Year investor presentation by Rolls-Royce on Aug 3rd 2023, revenue projections have been updated, and these updated values have been used.
* All other independent sections* of the income statement and cashflow statement (with some exceptions) were forecast by taking an average percentage of revenue over the historical period after 2015, and assumed to be constant over the forecast period. Data for 2020 and 2021 was excluded from the average to ignore the impact of COVID-19 on the industry (and on Rolls-Royce). The Cost Of Goods Sold forecast excluded 2018, 2019 and 2020 to highlight the assumption that the COGS should be a constant fraction of the revenue, and the years -18,-19,-20 had hiked Costs of Goods Sold relative to revenue generated.
** The exceptions include the SG&A expenses gradually decreasing from the average (8.6%) down to 8.0% by the end of the forecasting period, as well as COGS slowly reducing from the average (80%) down to 78% by 2027. Both reductions are following the company's aim to reduce energy and operating costs in line with the 2030 net zero target. This is complemented by a slightly higher than average (4.2%) capital expenditure, starting at 5.0%  by the end of 2023 and growing to 5.5% by 2027, highlighting the company's investments into renewable energy as well as energy efficiency. Finally, R&D costs are at a steady 6.0% of the revenue, higher than the previous average of 5.7%, following continued research into their hybrid-electric solutions within the Power Systems segment, development of the more efficient UltraFan jet engine, testing of sustainable aviation fuels, small modular reactors (SMRs) and hybrid and fully electric propulsion. These products are expected to be compatible with net-zero requirements by 2030, and all other products will reach this status by 2050. Rolls-Royce expects future investment required to deliver these technology.<ref>https://www.rolls-royce.com/~/media/Files/R/Rolls-Royce/documents/investors/2022-full-year-results-press-release.pdf</ref> 
* The tax expense for the historical period was highly fluctuating and difficult to forecast in the same manner as other sections. Hence, a constant effective tax rate of 20% was applied throughout the forecast period, and used as the tax rate for the calculation of the WACC.

<nowiki>*</nowiki>''independent sections refer to the group of sections that are required to fully characterise the income and cashflow statements. Explicitly, the independent sections are those for which the % revenue or effective rate has been calculated. For example, capital expenditure. EBITDA is not an independent section as it can be calculated from EBIT and D&A costs, the former of which is another dependent section.''

The valuation multiples are expressed in the bar charts with the industry median and the value of the respective multiple for Rolls Royce, highlighted using a dotted line.
[[File:Final P-S.png|none|thumb|786x786px]]

== Risks ==

=== '''Debt & interest rates''' ===
<big>In 2021, Rolls Royce had a debt of £5.2 billion which reduced significantly to £3.3 billion. However, £1.49 billion (around 78%) of the total debt repayment was financed by the sale of ITP Aero and AirTanker shares. It is expected that the primary route Rolls Royce can take to further reduce its net debt is by selling more of its assets.</big>

<big>Higher debt can be very expensive especially as the interest rates continue to rise.</big> <ref>https://investingreviews.co.uk/news/rolls-royce-shares-up-in-2023/</ref>

=== '''Inflation''' ===
Revenue of Rolls Royce is strongly linked to the growth of the airline industry. 44% of its income comes from the sale and servicing of civil airplane engines. High inflation is significantly denting consumer’s spending power especially on luxurious products and services including holidays abroad. <ref name=":0">https://www.fool.co.uk/2022/10/24/4-big-reasons-to-avoid-rolls-royce-shares/</ref>

=== '''New CEO''' ===
Tufan Erginbilgic is appointed as the new CEO for Rolls Royce. He is a  former executive at BP. He has been very transparent about the poor performance of the Rolls Royce compared to its competitors. The share price of Rolls Rise has dropped by two-thirds in the last 5 years. It is anticipated that under the leadership and restructuring plans of the new CEO, Rolls Royce will steer towards growth in the near future however there are concerns if Tufan Erginbilgic will be able to successfully implement his plans. <ref>https://www.theguardian.com/business/2023/jan/27/rolls-royce-is-a-burning-platform-that-must-transform-says-new-ceo</ref> 

=== '''High R&D costs''' ===
To stay ahead of the competition, it is crucial for Rolls Royce to invest in researching and developing new technology that can be incorporated into its products. This often has high costs associated with it and significantly dents the company’s profits.

Failure to keep up with the latest technological advancements can result in the risk of falling behind in this competitive industry. <ref name=":1">https://thestrategystory.com/blog/rolls-royce-swot-analysis/</ref>

=== '''Environmental Concerns''' ===
Recently, the airline industry like many others aims to to reduce the carbon emission. Aircraft engines will play a crucial role in the transition towards more environment friendly air transport. Some of the earlier Rolls Royce products therefore need to be quickly replaced with more green products. <ref name=":1" />

=== '''UK defence quota''' ===
Around 30% of Rolls Royce’s underlying revenue comes from the defence and military segment. It is anticipated that the demand for plane, boat, and submarine engines will fall from the Ministry of Defence considering the political factors and concerns over the rising public debt.

Liz Truss, former prime minister, aimed to spend 3% of GDP on defence by 2030 however this doesn’t seem to be the case after her term ended in Oct 2022. <ref name=":0" />

=== '''Currency''' ===
Rolls Royce is a global company operating with many different currencies. It is vital for Rolls Royce to manage the risks related to exchange rates and the respective impact on its core financials and profitability. <ref name=":1" />

=== '''Competition''' ===
Rolls Royce faces fierce competition from other industry players including: General Electric, Pratt & Whitney, and Siemens. Additionally, in the recent years, many new competitors have entered the market which puts pressure on pricing, reduces the market share for the market leaders and makes innovation extremely important for survival. <ref name=":1" />

=== '''Economy and Industry Downturns''' ===
Recently, the profitability was significantly affected due to the Covid 19 pandemic, supply chain issues, Russia-Ukraine conflicts and other geopolitical tensions. All of these have a significant impact directly or indirectly (through the civil aerospace industry). <ref name=":1" />
