MS (Marketable Securities). RCA (Revolving Credit Availability). Revolver usually set at 1 x EBITDA Amsterdam Institute of Finance October, 2014

  6. Capitalization Alternatives • There are two different approaches to designing the capital structure: Balance Sheet Model Cash Flow Model 3 - 5x EBITDA 50% 5 - 6x EBITDA 30% Senior Debt Sub Debt Equity Equity 20% Amsterdam Institute of Finance October, 2014

  10. Rating Agencies - Ratings as keys opening market doors Syndication CLO Amsterdam Institute of Finance October, 2014 • Important: Loan Market Evolution from a bank to an institutional market (back to a bank market?) • Impact: Majority of syndicated loans are rated • Pricing: Affected by rating • Market Access Amount Impacted by rating

  11. S&P Ratings Generic Guidelines AAA AA A BBB BB B CCC EBITDA/I 20 12 6 4 2 1.5 <1 FD/EBITDA NM 1 2 3 4 5+ >6 Size Big 20B+ 15B+ 10B+ 5B+ 1B+ NM Amsterdam Institute of Finance October, 2014

  12. Cash Flow • Maximum debt capacity formula:- MDC = f(operations, amortization, rate, asset sales) MDC = [EBIT / (i+ 1/n)] + AS + RF EBIT - Earnings Before Interest and Taxes i - Interest Rate n - Straight line loan amortization AS - Proceeds from Asset Sales RF - Refinancing Amsterdam Institute of Finance October, 2014

  13. Financial Analysis • Opening Balance Sheet • Adjustments – from sources and uses – including purchase price assumptions • Proforma balance Sheet • Income Statement • Cash Flow Statement Capitalization table/transaction structure Debt Schedule Term sheet(s) Valuation/maximum purchase price Returns Analysis – IRR and MOC Amsterdam Institute of Finance October, 2014

  14. Credibility of Cash Flow Projections • Issues • Adjustments (beware of solving for cash flows to justify price) • Normalization • Cyclicality • Bad Management • Value Test • Projections implied price • Reverse Engineer - Management implied forecast • Firms • Peers • Tie Into • Compensation • Covenants Amsterdam Institute of Finance October, 2014

  17. In Practice • Macro/Market Level • Determine rating target • Use target rating level financial characteristics • Funded Debt/EBITDA • EBITDA/Interest Expense • Funded Debt/Total Cap Example: (A) Target Rating BB (B) EBITDA/Int for Target Rating c3.0x (C) Firm EBITDA $300mln (D) Interest Rate for Target Rating 10% (E) Maximum Debt Capacity = (C/B)/D = (300/3)/10% = $1,000 Amsterdam Institute of Finance October, 2014

  18. EBIT – EPS Analysis • If EBIT > 5mlm – Debt Preferred • If EBIT < 5mlm – Equity Preferred EPS Indifference Point 5,000,000 10,000,000 0 EBIT Amsterdam Institute of Finance October, 2014
