Q

Why unlever and relever beta?

A

Unlevering beta removes the effects of financial leverage on a company. You want the systematic risk associated with a specific industry and the company’s comparables instead of the whole market, then you want to adjust it for company specific risk to incorporate the effects of leverage.

Q

A company has negative cash flow in perpetuity. Can it have a positive valuation?

A

Yes, it could be a startup. Thus, you could use comparables or precedent transactions that would derive a positive valuation. Also, you’d have to consider the company’s liquidation value.

Q

You purchase a bond at 80% of par. The bond has a 10% coupon. You sell it at the end of 3 years at a 10% premium to par. The discount rate is 0%. What is the year 1 cash-on-cash return? What is the total profit over the 3-year investment life? What is the total ROI (not compounded or annualized)?

A

Purchase price= $800 (assuming $1000 par)

Coupon= $100

Year 1 cash on cash return? (100/800 = 12.5%)

Total Profit over 3 years= 100+100+100+300 = 600

What is the ROI= 600/800=75%

Q

Would an equity investment be included in EV?

What determines whether or not something should be added to or subtracted from EV?

A

No. Equity investments could be treated similar to cash, thus reducing the company’s EV given the ability to reduce debt.

Added:

Represents other investors or funding sources

Subtract:

Not related to company’s core business (investments, cash, real estate)

Q
  1. How do you derive the savings amount from NOLs?
  2. How would you value NOLs in a DCF model?
A
  1. Reduce NOL from taxable income, multiply new taxable income by tax rate, then subtract those taxes from original pre tax income to derive new NI. Then, compare what taxes would have been without the NOL to taxes with NOLs included
  2. NOLs increase cash flow, thus I would add the amount of tax savings to the FCF each year

Or

I could simply take the PV of future tax savings and add that at the end and discount it at Ke. However, when going from EV to equity value, I would treat the NOLs as cash.

Q

A/R increases by $5M, how would this change your valuation?

A

It would increase your working capital, thus reduce your cash flow because you have not received the cash. Thus, it would reduce your overall valuation.

EBIT increases $5 x (1-20%), but then cash decreases $5, thus it is an overall FCF reduction. The total valuation impact is that amount discounted.

Q

Acquirer Info:

P/E 25x

Cost of debt: 8%

Tax rate: 40%

Do you use debt or equity to finance acquisition?

A

Stock: 1/25 = 4%

Debt: 8% x (1-40%) = 4.8%

Use equity because it is a “cheaper” form of currency. You’re using a currency that yields less to pay for an acquisiton, thus you’re giving up less

Q

You’re purchasing a company with $30M EBITDA. You’re paying 10x multiple and financing 50% with debt. After 1 year, you have fired 1,000 employees making $10/hour, and will exit at the same multiple you purchased for. What is your IRR?

A

$300m purchase price

$150 debt, $150 equity

1,000 x 10/hr x 40hrs/week x 50 weeks= $20m

New EBITDA= $30 + $20= $50

New value= $50 x 10 = $500

New Equity = $500 - $150 = $350

IRR = (350/150)^(1/1) - 1= 133%

Q

Your analyst comes to you and provides you these numbers for companies in the same industry. What are the 3 issues that you see?

A

Check to make sure the multiples make sense:

  • Mutiples get higher as you move down the P&L since there is less income (same amount over a decreasing number leads to a higher multiple)

Revenue X < EBITDA X < EBIT X

41
Q

If the Trump administration gives a big tax holiday for corporations, what would be the implications for EV?

A

FCF increases (increases EV)

WACC increases due to Kd increase (1-T) (decreases EV)

46
Q

What kind of debt would a high growth start-up need? Assume that it has no profits and no collateral.

A

Convertible debt because it can then turn into equity, thus the company is not using cash. Essentially, the collateral is the future valuation of the company

Or, PIK debt since payments are not due until maturity.

Q

What is the difference between a merger and an acquisition?

A

Mergers are typically two equal companis that join together and legally form a new entity. (Merger of equals)

Acquisitions occur when one company acquires another company, and the acquiring company retains its name, etc and conducts the operations.

52
Q

How do you calculate Levered FCF and when and why is it used?

A

EBIT (1-T) + D/A - Changes in OWC - CapEx - After tax interest expense + After tax interest income - debt repayments

It’s used to calculate equity value or can be used in LBO analysis to determine amount of cash leftover to either pay down principal of debt or be used as part of residual equity

54
Q

How do you account for risk in a valuation?

A

Modify the WACC, adjust intermediate cash flows, lower growth rate assumptions

55
Q

If you are walking a client through a DCF model, which two inputs would you explain as having the most impact on the overall valuation? Why?

A

WACC and Growth Rate (terminal value inputs) (assuming utilizing perpetuity method)

Mathematically significant when valuing cash flows and terminal value

56
Q

How does an increase in days payable affect cash flow?

A

It allows company’s to retain cash for a longer duration of time because it pays its suppliers later

57
Q

A company has $100M of gross PP&E and uses an accelerated depreciation method. Depreciation expense is $10M for the first five years, after which it drops to $5M. Assuming the Company does not make any additional capital expenditures, do you foresee any problems forecasting the Company’s terminal value in DCF using the $5M per year of depreciation?

A

Yes, using traditional terminal value calculations would continue to incorporate $5m in depreciation, which it would not have in the future. It overstates your FCF because you are adding back the depreciation amount.

58
Q

Part I: You are given that a company has cash = $50, short term securities = $20, accounts payable = $300, loan = $500, minority interest = $20, and 200 shares outstanding @ $10 share price. What is the enterprise value?

Part II: In addition to the figures provided in Part I (see above), you are also provided that EBITDA = 100 and net income = 50. What is the EBITDA multiple, leverage multiple, and P/E ratio?

A

Part I: Equity + Debt + P-stock + Minority Interest - cash/equivalents

= (200*10)+500+20-70 = 2,450

Part II:

EBITDA Multiple= 24.5x (EV/EBITDA)

Leverage Multiple= 5x (Debt/EBITDA)

P/E Ratio= 40x (Price-share/EPS)

59
Q

What happens to the P/E ratio in a stock split?

A

Nothing. Price per share changes by the amount EPS changes.

Ex. 1:2 stock split, price would halve and then shares outstanding would double, thus halving EPS.

60
Q

2 companies are identical in every way – one is funded 50:50 debt:equity, other is 75:25 debt:equity – which is more expensive and why?

A

The one with higher debt- it would have a lower cost of capital leading to a higher valuation. (Assuming same amount of capital base, thus no difference in EBIT).

61
Q

Can EBITDA be lower than Net Income?

A

Yes, if there are significant nonoperating income such as gains on investments, interest income, etc.

62
Q

Suppose a company has two divisions: industrial tool sales and consumer tool sales. The company is currently trading at 9x EBITDA and the CEO is considering splitting the two divisions into two newly combined companies. Each division contributes 50% of total EBITDA and you know that similar industrial tool and consumer tool companies are trading at 8x and 12x EBITDA, respectively. Do you advise the CEO to pursue the break-up and why?

A

Using a simplified sum-of-the parts analysis, I would assign the company a multiple of 10x, which is the result of 50% of the company at 8x and 50% of the company at 12x (8*50% + 12*50%). 10x is greater than 9x, thus I would advise the break-up as that may lead to more value for shareholders.

63
Q

Do LBOs look at unlevered or levered FCFs?

A

Both- you need to analyze unlevered FCFs to get a sense of ability to service and pay down debt

You need to analyze levered FCFs to get a sense of total cash to pay down the rest of the debt to get a net debt figure when calculating residual equity value

64
Q

Why would you add non-controlling interest (NCI) to calculate EV? Where does NCI sit on the balance sheet?

A

NCI is the portion of a subsidiary that the parent company does not own. A company that owns 50% or more of a company must incorporate the assets and liabilities of that subsidiary into the parent company’s financials. Thus, there is a portion of the subsidiary not owned by the parent company that is owed a portion of equity. Thus, on the income statement there is a line item for NI attributable to NCI.

On the Balance Sheet, NCI sit in the equity portion and add’s to the company’s total equity.

EV includes NCI in order to compare apples to apples with EBITDA multiples, which includes the portion attributatble to NCI. In an ideal world, you would subtract the income to NCI from EBITDA and not include NCI in EV. But, that is difficult to do.

65
Q

What factors should you consider when advising a client to go public?

A
  • Recent IPOs in similar industry and their performance
  • Current market trends
  • Economic environment
  • Company ready to handle regulatory requirements for being a public company
66
Q

You ask your analyst to run some quick accretion/dilution math for you and he does everything correctly. Company A trades at 19x P/E and they are buying Company B that trades at 18x P/E with 100% equity. They run the numbers and the deal comes out to be dilutive. How?

A

The data only tells what the company TRADES at, not what the offer price/share was.
