You are the top management of a newly formed special purpose company spc.
The purpose of the company is to invest in infrastructure sector by acquiring several companies in different industries. You can acquire as many companies as possible as long as your equity, borrowing capacity and cash flow projections permit.
Your company has no debt as of today as it is a newly formed and the balance sheet is rather simple.
Assets : usd 100.000.000 cash
Liabilities : usd 100.000.000 paid in capital
As you proceed further with the acquisitions, your b/s will grow on both liability and asset sides. The share holders yield expectation on the equity is not less than 25%.
The working capital loans can be utilized only once within 20 years only to cover the cash flow mismatch and should be repaid in the coming year in full (principle and the interest). Mt or lt facilities cannot be used for mismatching cash flows. All the lt and mt loans for the acquisition will be utilized upfront, and all the equity will be injected on day 1 for the acquisition. Mt or lt loans can be utilized after the first day only for the capital investment. The e/d ratio will not be less than 35/65 for any lt/mt loan utilized (for both mt< loans utilized for acquisition and capital investment). The equity required to cover the cash deficit can be injected in the due course.
Please note the terminal value of the assets will be assumed to be 50% of the bid amount unless otherwise stated. Please also note the cash generations are free of operational and other costs and no corporate tax. The funding composition of the bids will be used to calculate the wacc, the equity and the loans used in the due course will not be taken into consideration for wacc calculations to simplify the process.
