Hastings Corporation is interested in acquiring Vandell Corporation. Vandell has 1 million shares outstanding and a target capital structure consisting of 30% debt; its beta is 1.50 (given its target capital structure). Vandell has $11.97 million in debt that trades at par and pays an 7.1% interest rate. Vandell’s free cash flow (FCF0) is $1 million per year and is expected to grow at a constant rate of 6% a year. Both Vandell and Hastings pay a 40% combined federal and state tax rate. The risk-free rate of interest is 4% and the market risk premium is 8%.
Hastings Corporation estimates that if it acquires Vandell Corporation, synergies will cause Vandell’s free cash flows to be $2.4 million, $3.0 million, $3.5 million, and $3.62 million at Years 1 through 4, respectively, after which the free cash flows will grow at a constant 6% rate. Hastings plans to assume Vandell’s $11.97 million in debt (which has an 7.1% interest rate) and raise additional debt financing at the time of the acquisition. Hastings estimates that interest payments will be $1.5 million each year for Years 1, 2, and 3. After Year 3, a target capital structure of 30% debt will be maintained. Interest at Year 4 will be $1.481 million, after which the interest and the tax shield will grow at 6%.

The bid for each share should range between $ per share and $ per share.
