f. Add the balance of the proceeds from the IPO minus the retirement of the outstanding debt to the cash balance of NetTune as of 6/30/2004 and project the cash balances through 12/31/2005. Assume 1.25% quarterly interest on cash balances.

d. How much can Gustav expect to pay Colossus in total for NetTune?
c. What is the expected value of Allen Venture Partners’ stake on June 30, 2004 based upon the expected IPO value of NetTune? What is their expected return multiple (that is, how many times their investment multiplies) from January 1, 2003 to June 30, 2004.
b. How much can Martin Gustav expect to be worth at the IPO time
a. What percentage of the equity needs to be sold in the IPO?
All the above looked very appealing to the NetTune crowd. But Gustav still needed$15−$3−$5 = $7 million. Mar¨us (Colossus’ VP) had indicated Colossus might be willing to provide bridge financing for the $7 million, assuming Allen Venture Partners put up $8 million. The note would be senior,
Rather than an alternative standard to MP3, the technology was completely flexible and could be set to allow a variety of standards, including MP3 and the standard recommended by the industry’s Secure Music Initiative. In addition, delivery was compatible with a variety of playback devices
Between him, his NetTune associates, friends, and relatives Gustav hoped to get $2 million cash. This, plus the stock appreciation rights he had in Colossus, plus the severance payments he planned to negotiate for his team, would bring the management’s contribution to the acquisition price to
10.18 It took Mike Strong, the new CEO of Colossus, 5 minutes into Martin Gustav’s presentation to turn to Bob Mar¨us, the Vice President of Corporate Development, and say: “We are not a music store. Get rid of it. . . . Nothing personal Martin.” Martin Gustav had been working for the good
10.17 Valuation of holdbacks: Consider now the case where part of the purchase price is held back by the buyer to be paid if and only if certain conditions are met. For example, refer to Problem 10.9 and suppose that instead including $5 million cash in its offer for VASM, Prentice Works offers $3
10.16 Suppose that Mr. Webster would instead receive a perpetual earnout in the form of class-A shares that would pay dividend based upon the performance of VASM, which would be operated as a semi-independent unit with its own GAAP accounting and independent auditors. Class-A shares would receive
10.15 Open the Financial Options Calculator. Save the copy to use under another name such as“Perpetual.” Add a data table to the call option module of this copy and compute the value of the perpetual options of Section 10.7 over 100 years. Verify that your result agrees with those given there.
10.14 Suppose the earnout of VASM is based upon the 2.5 times the excess of EBITDA over a $6 million yearly threshold for the next 3 years payable at the end of every year. In addition, each yearly payment is capped at $2 million. What is the value of the earnout?
Assume the terms of the earnout are as specified in Problem 10.9. Suppose that the seller of VASM can repurchase his company in case the buyer is unable to pay the earnout at maturity, and that the repurchase price is 90% of the total cash consideration already received from the buyer. In this
10.12 Let the earnout of VASM be payable at the end of the 3rd year based upon the excess of average EBITDA during the previous 3 years over $6 million and be capped at $10 million. Value the earnout for an earnout multiple equal to 3.484 and compare your result to that obtained in Problem 10.11.
10.11 (a) What would the value of the earnout of Problem 10.10 be if it were capped at $10 million? (b) Redesign the earnout such that even with the cap it has the same value as in Problem 10.9.
10.10 Consider the following alternative earnout for VASM’s Mr. Webster. The other components of the consideration stay the same. The earnout would pay 3.484 times the excess of 3rd-year EBITDA over $6 million. The riskless 3-year annual compound interest rate is r = 5%. The 95% confidence range
While Mr. Webster would take into account his salary as president of the subsidiary, as well as the tax consequences of the transaction, you should ignore these matters in answering the above questions.
d. What is the initial enterprise value EBITDA multiple offered by Prentice?
c. How much is Prentice Works offering for the enterprise (net debt plus equity) of VASM?
b. What is the value of the earnout agreement?
