Assume that a company is expected to produce EBITDA of $90M in perpetuity. The corporate tax rate the company is subject to is 35%. To maintain the existing production capacities, capital expenditures are expected to be at $10M per year, in perpetuity. Annual depreciation, expected in perpetuity as well, is $10M. The current risk-free rate is 3%, and it is expected to remain so in perpetuity. The company has $200M in long-term debt, which is considered by the bank to be risk-free, so the interest rate the firm pays on its debt is 3%. The company expects to hold that amount of debt in perpetuity. Using stock returns on a comparable company that operates in the same industry, and has debt outstanding equal to 40% of the market value of its total capital, analysts estimated that the comparable company’s beta is 1.8. The analysts believe the companies are comparable in all respects except for the capital structure, and do not expect that beta to change over time. You also know that the estimate of the market risk premium for the foreseeable future is 5%. Assume that the probability of financial distress for the firm is negligible, so that you can disregard it.

What do you expect the value of the firm’s equity to be if the company were to issue new debt and use the proceeds from this debt issue to repurchase equity? ________________

What price would the firm repurchase the equity at, assuming the firm has 90K common shares outstanding? __________________
