Apache Airlines, a privately held firm, is looking to buy additional gates at its home airport for $500,000. Apache has $240,000 in the bank but that money may not be spent as it is used to pay salaries, suppliers, and equipment. Apache asked its bank for a loan but the bank refused saying that Apache's interest-bearing debt to equity was too high at 3.1. The bank said that Apache needed to lower that ratio below 2.5 in order to get the loan. Separately, SkyBlue Airlines has approached Apache to see if Apache will buy it.
Apache's CFO hired you to help with financial analyses. To help, the CFO tells you the following:
- Apache's cost of capital is ~7.7%. This is based on two airlines trading in the capital markets- Caledonian and Laker. Since Apache does not trade, it has no beta, so the CFO used Caledonian and Laker as proxies
- Aside from the purchase price, the gates will require a working capital infusion at purchase of $200,000. Apache estimates the gates will generate cash flows of $280,000/year for the next 8 years. After that, the gates will revert back to the airport operator. You must calculate the NPV and IRR of the gates
- you were given SkyBlue's 2018 income statement (IS) and balance sheet (BS), along with forecasts of the revenue growth and tax rates. You must forecast the IS and BS for the next 3 years
- The price discussed by the two CEOs is 44x SkyBlue's 2018 net earnings. You must calculate this price and compare it with the free cash flow value of SkyBlue, which you must also calculate. The CFO wants to know if Apache is overpaying or underpaying for SkyBlue
- Apache's forecast balance sheet has been included in the Excel file, so you need do nothing to it. However, the CFO has asked you to consolidate the two balance sheets - the Apache one given to you and the SkyBlue one that you calculated. Once these two are consolidated, you are asked to calculate three debt ratios, as listed in the file
- Finally, the CFO wants to know if the consolidated balance sheet's Debt/Equity ratio is below 2.5. if so, it will allow Apache to buy the gates. Is Apache's ratio low enough that they can borrow to buy the gates?
