Problem 18-5
Pricing Stock Issues in an IPO

Zang Industries has hired the investment banking firm of Eric, Schwartz, & Mann (ESM) to help it go public. Zang and ESM agree that Zang's current value of equity is $63 million. Zang currently has 3 million shares outstanding and will issue 1.8 million new shares. ESM charges a 8% spread.
What is the correctly valued offer price? Round your answer to the nearest cent.
$  

How much cash will Zang raise net of the spread? Round intermediate calculations to two decimal places. Round your answer to three decimal places. Enter your answer in millions. For example, an answer of $1.2 million should be entered as 1.2, not 1,200,000.
$   million

Not 21 and 34.77 million

Explanation / Answer

Value of company Pre-IPO= $63 million

Existing number of shares = 3 million

Value per share = $63 million / 3 million = $21 per share

Net proceeds from issue of new shares = $21 * 1.8 million = $37.8 million

Floatation costs = 8%

Gross proceeds from issue of new shares = Net proceeds/(1-Floatation costs)= $37.8 million/(1-0.08)= $41.09 million

Value of company post-IPO =Value of company Pre-IPO + Net proceeds from issue of new shares= $63 million + $37.8 million = $100.80 million

% required= Gross proceeds/Value post-IPO = $41.09 million/$100.80 million = 0.4076

No. of shares to be issued = 0.4076*3 million/(1-0.4076)= 2.06 million

Correctly valued offer price = $41.09 million/2.06 million = $19.95 per share

Price per share net of spread= $19.95 * (1 - 0.08) = $18.35 per share

Cash raised from offer= $63 million /{(0.08 *1.8 million) + 4 million} = $15.20

Pnet of spread= $15.20*(1-0.08)= $13.98

Cash raised net of spread = $13.98 * 1.8 million = $25.17 million
