Mergers &
Acquisitions
Introduction
No rational buyer would pay more for an asset than its true
worth
Value driven by not just financial considerations but also be
from the business post the deal but then a lot also depends
on the bargaining power of the acquirer and the target
a whole.
In other words, it is the sum of the value of the stakes of all
Question:
Firm S acquires Firm T. Following are the pre-
Firm T
60
20
5,00,000
3,00,000
3,00,00,000
60,00,000
Solution:
Cost of acquired/merged firm:
Cost = PV (AB) PV (B)
Where represents the fraction of the shares in the combined entity received by
shareholders of Firm T
The share of T in the combined entity denoted by is computed as:
= 1,00,000/ (5,00,000 + 1,00,000) = 0.167
If we assume that the market value of the combined entity will be equal to the sum of PV of
separate firms & benefit accruing to the combined firm on account of merger.
PV (AB) = PV (S) + PV (T) + benefit on account of merger
= 3,00,00,000 + 60,00,000 + 60,00,000
= 4,20,00,000
Cost = PV (AB) - PV (T)
= 0.167 *4,20,00,000 60,00,000
= 10,14,000
= 49,86,000
NPV of Firm T = Cost to Firm S = Rs. 10,14,000
Since NPV for both the firms is positive, both are the net gainers.
Question:
Company Y intends to acquire ABC Ltd. The balance sheet of
ABC Ltd. are entitled to get 1 share in company Y for every 3
shares. The shares of company Y will be issued at a market
price of INR 20. The expected benefits from acquisition will
amount to INR 180000 per annum for next 5 years. If the
firms cost of capital is 12%, do you think the merger will
create synergy?

Question
K Ltd. Is considering acquiring N Ltd., the following
information is available:
Company
Profit after
tax
K Ltd.
50,00,000
10,00,000
200.00
N Ltd.
15,00,000
2,50,000
160.00
Solution:
a) Exchange ratio = 160: 200 = 4:5
That is for 4 shares of K Ltd. for every 5 shares of N Ltd.
Total no. of shares to be issued = 4/5* 250000
= 200000 shares
Total no. of shares of K and N Ltd. combined are
10,00,000 + 2,00,000 = 12,00,000 shares
Total profit after tax = 50,00,000+15,00,000
= 65,00,000
EPS after the merger = 65,00,000/12,00,000
Rs. 5.42 per share
Methods of Valuation
Asset Based Valuation
Involves estimation of the value of corporate assets, as if they have been
assets,
Assets Side:
While valuing the fixed assets, each sub class is considered and the value of all the
individual assets under each sub class is estimated. For example: Real estate,
Plant and machinery, Furniture and fixtures, Buildings, Vehicles, etc.
Investment are estimated either at their realizable value or its current yield.
Investments are valued under the categories of listed securities, unlisted
realizable values.
Liabilities Side:
All third party liabilities are valued and deducted from the total
deferred liabilities
Are pegged at an appropriate level to arrive at estimated value of
may also decide to knock them off at the time of agreement. Here their value
becomes irrelevant and immaterial.
The calculation of Net Assets value done as under:
When Net Assets for Equity Shareholders are divided by the number of equity
shares, one arrives at the net assets value (NAV) per share
Cash-Flow based
Approach/Discounted Cash Flow
Method
Represents present value of the expected cash flows generated
FCF1
FCF2
FCF3
FCFn
= --------- + ---------- + --------- + ---------(1 + r) (1 + r)2 (1 + r)3 (1 + r)n
Where,
FCF1, FCF2.FCFn represent expected free cash flows over a period of n years
r represents the discount rate that incorporates the risk involved in the investment.
n represents the useful life on the investment i.e. the time frame during which the investment
the
continuing value provides the Enterprise Value of the
company.
Question:

For example: A company might have rights
For example:
Solution:
Price paid in the Block deal for 30% stake: Rs. 500
Price paid in the open offer for 30% stake: Rs. 550
Hence average price paid for acquisition: Rs. 525
Average price for 3 months prior to acquisition: Rs.
407
Control premium = Rs. 525 Rs. 407 = Rs. 118
