Financial Analysis of Amalgamation between TCS & CMC


A Project Report

1. Introduction
In todays competitive scenario, a company cannot think of long term survival if it gets stick
on the particular operations or services. To gain competitive advantage it has to restructure its
activities as per the demand of time by using any form of corporate restructuring such as
through Mergers and Acquisitions. Mergers and acquisitions improve market efficiency by
capturing synergies between firms. The prospect of increasing profitability and market share
by acquisition or merger has continued to exercise a more immediate and seductive appeal to
organizations.
Sometimes the companies have to restructure their activities to make the organization more
balanced, profitable and also enable the company to achieve its objectives in more simplified
manner, than previously. The basic objective of restructuring is reorganizing the existing
operations keeping in view the continuance of business and improving the firms
profitability. Thus restructuring is a process by which a firm does an analysis of itself at a
point of time and alert what it owes and owns, refocuses itself to the specific tasks of
performance improvements. There are many areas of restructuring such as in the area of
finance, technology, marketing and manpower. A company can restructure itself by adopting
either expansion techniques or disinvestment techniques. Mergers and acquisitions are
involved in expansion techniques.
In this project work, we study and anlyse the amalgamation between Tata Consultancy
Services (TCS) and CMC. TCS, the $13 billion flagship software unit of the Tata Group, has
announced a merger with the listed CMC with itself as part of the groups renewed efforts to
consolidate its IT businesses under a single entity.

3. Deal Description & Background

CMC was a Government of India (GoI) enterprise up to October 15, 2001. Under the
disinvestment process, GoI sold 7,726,500 equity shares representing 51% of the
equity hare capital to Tata Sons Limited (the parent company of TCS) on October 16,
2001. The GoI further sold its entire remaining shares representing 26.25% of the
equity share capital, in March 2004 by an open offer to the public.

On March 29, 2004, as per specific approval granted by SEBI, Tata Sons Limited
transferred its entire shareholding in CMC to TCS. As a result, CMC has become a
subsidiary of TCS. It is intended that CMC should merge into TCS to consolidate the
information technology services business in a single entity.

On October 16, 2014, TCS announced that the Board of Directors of TCS and CMC
Limited (CMC), a subsidiary of TCS, have today approved the amalgamation of CMC
with TCS pursuant to the provisions of Sections 391 to 394 of the Companies Act,
1956. Shares of IT firm CMC fell sharply by over 16% after the announcement that
the company will be merged with Tata Consultancy Services. The stock came under
massive selling pressure in a knee-jerk reaction to the merger announcement and
overall weakness in IT stocks.

In October 2014, it announced the decision to merge CMC Ltd. with itself. The
amalgamation date is fixed at April 01, 2015 subject to standard regulatory
approvals.

On July 16, 2015, CMC Ltd has informed BSE that the Company has fixed July 28,
2015 as the Record Date for the purpose of Payment of Interim Dividend and declared
an interim dividend of Rs. 4.35 per equity share of 10 each. The Interim Dividend
will be paid to the equity shareholders of the Company on August 04, 2015.

On September 21, 2015 Tata Consultancy Services Ltd has informed BSE that the
Honble High Court of judicature at Bombay has sanctioned the Scheme of
Amalgamation between CMC Limited and Tata Consultancy Services Limited on
August 14, 2015 with respect to petition filed by TCS.

The High Court of judicature at Hyderabad for the states of Telangana and Andhra
Pradesh has also approved the scheme on July 20, 2015 with respect to petition filed
by CMC.

TCS has fixed October 1, 2015 as the record date to determine the names of the
public shareholders of CMC, which shareholders other than TCS, who would be
entitled to receive the equity shares of TCS in lieu of equity shares held in CMC.

As per the Scheme of Amalgamation between CMC Ltd and TCS Ltd, 79 equity
shares of 1 each of TCS will be issued and allotted as fully paid up equity shares for
every 100 equity shares of 10 each held by the public shareholders of CMC, whose
names appear in the Register of Members of CMC and whose names appear as the
beneficial owners of the equity shares of CMC in the records of the depositories on
the Record Date.

4. Motivation for the deal


The rationale for the amalgamation of CMC with TCS is inter alia as follows:
a) Rationalization: The amalgamation shall enable TCS to consolidate CMCs
operations in a single company with rationalized structure, enhanced reach, greater
financial strength and flexibility aiding in achieving economies of scale, more focused
operational efforts, standardization and simplification of business processes and
productivity improvements.
b) Enhanced Reach: Creation of a single go-to-market strategy, benefit of scale,
enhanced depth and breadth of capabilities to result in increased business
opportunities and reduced expenses.
c) Better Positioning: Combined Company shall be better positioned to serve the
domestic market.
d) The amalgamation of CMC with TCS will not adversely affect the rights and interests
of the shareholders of TCS and CMC.
e) The creditors of TCS will also not be affected by the amalgamation as assets of CMC
are greater than liabilities of CMC and post-consolidation, the asset of TCS will also
be much greater than its liabilities.
f) The creditors of CMC will also not be affected by the amalgamation as the asset of
TCS will also be much greater than its liabilities after the consolidation.
g) This amalgamation will also provide for various other matters consequential to or
otherwise integrally connected with the amalgamation of CMC with TCS.

5. Deal Structure and Analysis


As per the terms of the Scheme of Amalgamation (Scheme), shareholders of CMC will
receive 79 equity share of 1 each of TCS for 100 equity shares of 10 each of CMC.
The swap ratio has been arrived at based on the valuation report prepared by B.S.R. &
Associates LLP.
TCS had appointed DSP Merill Lynch Limited (DSPML) to provide fairness opinion on the
recommended swap ratio for the purpose of the aforesaid merger. Similarly, CMC had
appointed JP Morgan India Private Limited (JPM) to provide fairness opinion on the
recommended swap ratio for the purpose of the aforesaid merger.

Share Capital:
As on September 30, 2014 the share capital of CMC is as follows:
Particulars
Authorized share capital
35,000,000 Equity Shares of 10 each
Total
Issued, Subscribed and paid Up Share Capital
30,300,000 Equity Shares of 10 each fully paid up

After the amalgamation, the paid-up share capital of TCS will increase from 195.87 crore to
197.04 crore. The Scheme is subject to, court, regulatory, shareholders and other necessary
approvals. The consolidated revenue of TCS, for the quarter ended September 30, 2014, was
23,816.48 crore, with profit after tax of 5,244.28 crore based on Indian GAAP. For the
same period, the consolidated revenue of CMC was 616.68 crore with profit after tax of

6. Valuation Analysis
Arriving at exchange ratio of equity shares for the merger of CMC with TCS would require
determining the value of the equity shares of CMC in terms of the value of the equity shares
of TCS. These values are to be determined independently but on a relative basis, and without
considering the current transaction.
There are several commonly used and accepted methods for determining the value of the
equity shares of a company, which have been considered in this amalgamation, to the extent
relevant and applicable, including:
a) Adjusted present value (APV) Method
b) Discounted Cash Flow (DCF) Method or Variable Risk Method (VRM)
c) Capital Cash Flow (CCF) Method

Adjusted present value (APV) Method


The method is to calculate the NPV of the project as if it is all-equity financed (so called base
case). Then the base-case NPV is adjusted for the benefits of financing. Usually, the main
benefit is a tax shield resulted from tax deductibility of interest payments. Another benefit
can be a subsidized borrowing at sub-market rates. The APV method is especially effective
when a leveraged buyout case is considered since the company is loaded with an extreme
amount of debt, so the tax shield is substantial.
Technically, an APV valuation model looks similar to a standard DCF model. However,
instead of WACC, cash flows would be discounted at the unlevered cost of equity, and tax
shields at either the cost of debt (Myers) or following later academics also with the unlevered
cost of equity. APV and the standard DCF approaches should give the identical result if the
capital structure remains stable.

CMC to let itself get amalgamated with TCS.

Discounted Cash Flow (DCF) Method


Discounted cash flow (DCF) analysis is a method of valuing a project, company, or asset
using the concepts of the time value of money. All future cash flows are estimated and
discounted by using cost of capital to give their present values (PVs). The sum of all future
cash flows, both incoming and outgoing, is the net present value (NPV), which is taken as the
value or price of the cash flows in question.
Using DCF analysis to compute the NPV takes as input cash flows and a discount rate and
gives as output a present value; the opposite processtakes cash flows and a price (present
value) as inputs, and provides as output the discount ratethis is used in bond markets to
obtain the yield.

Capital Cash Flow (CCF) Method


The typical method for valuing cash flows when the objective is to estimate total enterprise
value is the free cash flow (FCF) method. In the FCF method, the after-tax cash flows
exclude interest expense and the discount rate is the weighted average cost of capital
(WACC). The WACC is a function of the capital structure and in highly leveraged situations
in which the capital structure can change dramatically, the WACC has to be computed for

each period as the capital structure changes. This circumstance makes the FCF method
difficult to implement. The author presents an alternative method, the capital cash flow
(CCF) method, that is simpler to use and algebraically equivalent to the FCF method.
The difference between the FCF and CCF methods is a result of differences in calculating the
periodic cash flows and the estimate of the discount rate. The CCF method uses after-tax cash
flows that are simply the before-tax cash flows to the enterprise reduced by taxes that include
interest tax shields. The discount rate is the expected return on the enterprise assets and
depends on the riskiness of the assets. The discount rate is not dependent on the leverage used
and does not change as leverage changes. The CCF method is substantially easier to apply
than the FCF method and is thus less prone to error. The author discusses the mechanics of
valuing assets with the CCF method and illustrates the method with an example. The CCF
method is closely related to the adjusted present value method, and the author discusses the
similarities and differences between the two.

Inference: As is evident from NPV calculation, the valuation is a bare minimum positive
value. This clearly indicates that the company is not doing well in the market. Hence, it was
very prudent of CMC to let itself get amalgamated with TCS.

7. Legal & Tax Issues


As per the scheme of amalgamation, all taxes (including but not limited to income tax, sales
tax, excise duty, service tax, VAT, etc.) paid or payable by CMC in respect of the operations
and /or the profits of the business before the appointed date, on account of CMC and, in so far
as it relates to tax payment whether by way of deduction at source, advance tax or otherwise
however, by CMC in respect of the operation and /or the profits of the business after the
appointed date shall be deemed to be the corresponding item paid by TCS and shall, in all
proceedings, be dealt with accordingly.

All the profits or income, taxes (including advance tax, tax deducted at source and MAT
Credit) or any costs, charges, expenditure accuring or arising to CMC or expenditure of
losses arising or incurred or suffered by CMC shall for all purposes be treated and deemed to

Ratio of TCS Shares to CMC :

0.079

= 1675.33

a) Analysis from the point of the shareholders of TCS

LHS=2550.75

RHS=2562.49

(LHS< RHS)

Hence, deal was preferable for TCS Shareholders.

b) Analysis from the point of the shareholders of CMC

LHS=1987.05

RHS=202.437

(LHS>>RHS)

When the shareholders of A perceive no synergy in the merger, (i.e., S=0), the
maximum swap ratio that is acceptable to the shareholders of A is given by p2/p1.

As we will see shortly, if there is no synergy in the merger, then the minimum swap
ratio that is acceptable to the shareholders of B is also given by p2/p1.

Hence in a merger when there is no synergy, the only exchange ratio that will be
acceptable to the shareholders of both the companies is given by p2/p1.

Hence, deal was not preferable for CMC Shareholders. However, the shareholders were
probably convinced that merging with TCS will fetch good returns in the future.

9. Conclusion
Merger and Acquisition will certainly be helpful for the restructuring of companies to bring
them in competitive front and to gain many other advantages either by expanding or
disinvesting. One technique doesn't fit in all situations. Many companies find that the best
way to get ahead is to expand ownership boundaries through mergers and acquisitions. For
others, separating the public ownership of a subsidiary or business segment offers more
advantages. At least in theory, mergers create synergies and economies of scale, expanding
operations and cutting costs. Investors can take comfort in the idea that a merger will deliver
enhanced market power. Merged companies often enjoy improved operating performance
because of redesigned management incentives. Additional capital can fund growth
organically or through acquisition. Meanwhile, investors benefit from the improved
information flow from the merged companies. M&A comes in all shapes and sizes, and
investors need to consider the complex issues involved in M&A. The most beneficial form of
equity structure involves a complete analysis of the costs and benefits associated with the
deals.
From the synergy calculations, we observe that it was disadvantageous for CMC shareholders
to make the deal. However, all the valuation procedures indicate a very low worth of CMC.

This makes the deal a shrewd choice for CMC shareholders. They had probably reasoned that
CMC can have a bright future only if it amalgamates with TCS. From TCS point of view, it
was a move to augment economies of scale.

Hence the merger is a fruitful one in which both parties benefit.
