Question
Please answer the following questions in Excel:
-An analyst has researched the EV/EBITDA multiples of comparable firms to a company they are preparing a research note about, Intangible Ltd. The comps are:
EV/EBITDA multiple
Firm X 12.1
Firm Y 9.8
Firm Z 10.3
You can assume that all these firms are comparable to Intangible Ltd. in all relevant respects (industry, size, etc…). Intangible Ltd. has EBITDA of $213m, net debt of $1.1b, and 40m shares outstanding. How much is Intangible Ltd.’s equity worth on a per share basis?
Explanation / Answer
Using Average EV/EBITDA multiple from X,Y&Z=(12.1+9.8+10.3)/3=10.73
So, EV=Average EV/EBITDA*EBITDA=10.73*213=2285.49 Million=$2.28549 Billion
Net Debt=$1.1 Billion
So, Equity=Enterprise Value-Net Debt=2.28549-1=$1.28549 Billion
Equity per share=1.28549 billion/40 million=$32.137
