Use the data contained in the case to estimate the postmerger cash flows for 2018 through 2022 assuming that Lafayette General Hospital is acquired by St. Benedict's Teaching Hospital. You have very limited data on which to base your forecasts. The key is to make supportable assumptions about the potential synergies that can be obtained from the merger. Also, any cost savings to St. Benedict's that result from the merger must be included in the analysis. (Hint: Use embedded interest expense in your forecast, but do not include any interest to fund the acquisition.)

JOSEPH'S TEACHING HOSPITAL: Merger Analysis Model with Questions, Student Version This case consists of a valuation analysis on a 400-bed acute care hospital. The model uses both discounted cash flow (DCF) and market multiple methodologies for the valuation. The DCF method focuses on cash flows to equityholders. The INPUT DATA section of the model contains key assumptions needed to generate the pro forma (forecasted) cash flow statements. In addition, historical data used in the forecasting process is contained in its own section. The model consists of a complete base case analysis--no changes need to be made to the existing MODEL-GENERATED DATA section. However, values in the INPUT DATA section of the student spreadsheet have been replaced by zeros. Students must select appropriate input values and enter them into the cells with values colored red. After this is done, any error cells will be corrected and the base case solution will appear. The KEY OUTPUT section includes the most important output from the MODEL-GENERATED DATA section. INPUT DATA: (millions of $) Cash flow data: Growth in revenues (2018-2022): Inpatient Outpatient Nonoperating 0% 0% 0% KEY OUTPUT: (millions of $) Pro forma (forecasted) net cash flows: 2018 2019 2020 2021 Page 1 $100.236 $100.236 $100.236 $100.236
