BTR Warehousing, which is considering the acquiition of Galaxy Sun Corp., estimates that acquiring Galaxy Sun will result in an incremental value for the firm. The analysts involved in the deal have collected the following information from the projected financial statements of the target company:
Data collected (in millions of dollars)
Year 1 | Year 2 | Year 3 | |
EBIT | $14.0 | $16.8 | $21.0 |
Interest Expense | 4.0 | 4.4 | 4.8 |
Debt | 31.9 | 37.7 | 40.6 |
Total net operating capital | 121.5 | 123.9 | 126.3 |
Galaxy Sun Corp. is a publicly traded company, and its market-determined pre-merger beta is 1.20. You also have the following information about the company and the projected statements:
a) Galaxy Sun currently has a $32.00 million market value of equity and $ 20.80 million in debt.
b) The risk-free rate is 4%, there is a 6.10% market risk premium, and the capital aset pricing model purchases a pre-merger required rate of return on equity of 11.32%.
c) Galaxy Sun's cost of debt is 6.00% at a tax rate of 35%.
d) The projections assume that the company will have a post-horizon growth rate of 5.00%.
e) Current total net operating capital is $118.0, and the sum of existing debt and debt required to maintain a constant capital structure at the time of acquisitionis $29 million.
f) The firm does not have any nonoperating assets such as marketable securities.
Given this information, use the adjusted present value (APV) approach to calculate the following values involved in merger analysis:
1. Unlevered cost of equity: 8.10%/ 6.82% / 9.22% / 10.50%
2. Horizontal value of unlevered cash flows: $211.99 million / $279.92 million / $266.59 million / $132.70 million
3. Horizontal value of tax shield: $41.80 million / $39.81 million / $66.35 million / $38.32 million
4. Unlevered value of operations: $64.28 million / $233.62 million / $235.75 million / $228.61 million
5. Value of tax shield: $35.94 million / $74.66 million / $62.57 million / $39.65 million
6. Value of operations: $138.94 million / $271.69 million / $268.26 million / $296.19 million
7. Thus, the total value of Galaxy Sun's equity is $250.89 million / $214.95 million / $43.48 million / $275.39 million
8. Supposse BTR Warehousing plans to use more debt in the first few years of theacquisition of Galaxy Sun Corp. Assuming that using more debt will not lead to an increse in bankruptcy costs for BTR Warehousing, the interest tax shields and tha value of the tax shield in the analyssis, will decrease / increase, leading to a higher / lower value of operations of the acquired firm.
9. The APV approach is considered useful for valuing acquisition targets, because the method involves finding the values of the unlevered firm and the interest tax shield separately and then summing those values. Why is it difficult to value certain types of acquisitions using the corporate valuation model?
- The acquiring firm immediately retires the target firm's old debt. Thus, the acquisition deal consists of only new debt in its capital structure.
- The acquiring firm usually assumes the debt of the target firm. Thus, old debt with different coupon rates usually becomes a part of the aquisition deal.
