2015SD Q1 vs 2020Mar Q1: total value attributable to acquiree company

Aamysnowy5y ago
Dear tutor: in 2015 Q1, total value to acquiree company= MV equity + MV debt + premium in 2020 Q1, total value to acquiree company= MV debt + premium why MV equity omitted in 2020Mar Q1? should it include in? but if it includes MV equity, the value attributable to acquirer would be negative. thanks

I do not understand what you mean because the MV of equity has not been omitted. Which part of the answer are you referring to?

in 2020, value attributable to M investors=14375+6500, premium +MV debt, in 2015, value attributable to A investors=2100+9000+7350, MV equity+ MV debt+ premium, two questions have the similar logic, unbundle part of business, calculate PV after unbundling+ value of sell-off (+PV synergies in 2020) - value to acquiree company.

In the 2020 question, 14,375 is not the premium!! It is the current market value of the equity ($12,500) plus the premium of 15%.
