Merger Bid
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 1.30 (given its target capital structure). Vandell has $8.00 million in debt that trades at par and pays an 8% interest rate. Vandell's free cash flow (FCF0) is $2 million per year and is expected to grow at a constant rate of 5% a year. Both Vandell and Hastings pay a 40% combined federal and state tax rate. The risk-free rate of interest is 5% and the market risk premium is 6%.
Hastings Corporation estimates that if it acquires Vandell Corporation, synergies will cause Vandell's free cash flows to be $2.6 million, $3.0 million, $3.5 million, and $3.76 million at Years 1 through 4, respectively, after which the free cash flows will grow at a constant 5% rate. Hastings plans to assume Vandell's $8.00 million in debt (which has an 8% 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 $1.409 million, after which the interest and the tax shield will grow at 5%.
