The equity value of the combined company is $4,253.7m (using a PE valuation as shown in Appendix 3.
If a cash offer then Lahla has to pay $1,329m to Kawa’s shareholders, which leaves 4253.7 – 1320 = $2933.7m as the value of Lahla’s shares.
If instead there is a share-for-share offer then no cash is paid out (just more shares issued) and therefore the total value of the shares is the full $4,253.7m.

Is the thinking behind the $2933.7m a “free cash flow to equity” basis, rather than a double entry basis?

No, not at all.
Based on the future earnings, the equity is worth 4253.7. However having to pay out cash of 1,320 reduces the value of the company.
