Raymond Supply, a national hardware chain, is considering purchasing a smaller chain, Strauss & Glazer Parts (SGP). Raymond's analysts project that the merger will result in the following incremental free cash flows, tax shields, and horizon values:
Year | 1 | 2 | 3 | 4 |
Free cash flow | $20.00 | $25.00 | $30.00 | $35.00 |
Unlevered horizon value | | | | $366.00 |
Tax shield | $2.10 | $2.20 | $2.30 | $2.40 |
Horizon value of tax shield | | | | $25.00 |
Assume that all cash flows occur at the end of the year. SGP is currently financed with 25% debt at a rate of 10%. The acquisition would be made immediately, and if it is undertaken, SGP would retain its current debt and issue enough new debt to continue at the 25% target level. The interest rate would remain the same. SGP's pre-merger beta is 2.0, and its post-merger tax rate would be 25%. The risk-free rate is 8% and the market risk premium is 4%. Using the compressed adjusted present value approach, what is the value of SGP to Raymond? (Show your answer in millions of dollars.)
