Company xyz expects to generate FCFs of $15 M next year. This will grow for 5 years at 12%, after which the company will continue to grow at the risk-free rate of 2%. The equity risk premium is 6%; 30% of the company’s revenues occur in the U.S., but 70% of revenues come from China (which has a risk premium of 0.90%). EBITDA in the most recent year was $20 M and the Debt is $21 M, which implies a D/E ratio of 0.10 based on the pre-IPO values of equity. The company has 10 million shares outstanding and no cash on its balance sheet. The median beta is 1.2 and the median D/E ratio is 0.20. The median EV/EBITDA multiple is 12.5. The cost of debt is 5% (assume that this is also the cost of debt for SmartTag). Assume that the tax rate for all companies is 40%. Company xyz plans to use the proceeds of the IPO to pay a one-time dividend to its initial shareholders, so the proceeds will not affect the IPO valuation.
