Let?s do a market-multiples valuation of Interco based on data on the ?total value of the firm relative to firm sales? ratio. Exhibit 11.a gives the firm value-to-sales ratio for various competitors of Interco, across each of its four divisions. Exhibit 11.b gives the sales for Interco broken down across each of its four divisions. Using this information, calculate the estimated Interco stock price per share using the smallest firm value-to-sales multiple estimate for each division and then using the largest firm value-to-sales ratio for each division. Please look at the notes at beginning and end of assignment for how much debt to assume (remember we need to convert our estimate of Interco total firm value to a stock value) and how many stock shares outstanding to assume when calculating the estimate of Interco?s stock price per share.

To calculate the stock price, you need to know two things ? how many shares of stock Interco has outstanding and how much of the asset value of Interco is financed by debt (instead of equity).

Value of equity = value of assets ? debt.

Assume that Interco has 37.5 million fully diluted shares outstanding (as Wasserstein, Perella & Co. did in Exhibit 13).

Also, Exhibit 9 (summary of takeover analysis) mentions that the net debt that Interco has is $318.5 million.
