The large number of joint stock companies causes that investors strive for better awareness and information in the stock area. The objective of the contribution is to apply the method of discounted FCFE in the valuation of a specific company and to determine the parameters for the model application in practice. The data for the analysis are obtained from the database of Kofola ČeskoSlovensko a.s. The data are taken from the published annual reports for the years 2018 and 2019. First, a financial plan for a period of stability was created. Subsequently, the discount value of the company was calculated using the FCFE model. Finally, the calculation of the company value in the continuation phase was calculated. To achieve the research goal, the individual FCFE need to be discounted by the value of equity using the CAMP model. In conclusion, it can be assumed that the discount rate will remain stable and the prediction of the growth rate will not change. If there are no fundamental changes in the company e.g. in terms of dividend payment, investment activities, or changes in the working capital, it can be assumed that the value of the company should be stabilized until 2021.
