This being said the remaining number of shares after buyback would now equal 62% of 59,052 million shares, which would be 36,612 million shares.
Debt to be raised:
Number of shares to be repurchased = 22,439 million
Total price of the shares to be repurchased = 22,439 x $18.50 = 415,121
Less cash and cash equivalents = 257,497
Debt to be raised for buyback = 415,121 – 257,497 = 157,624 @ 6.75%
EPS:
Interest to be paid = 6.75% of 157,624 = $ 10,639
EBIT = 63,946
Less loss of cash and cash equivalants and market securities at 4.92% = 11,358
Revised EBIT = 52,588
Less interest @ 6.75% = 10,639
Earnings before taxes = 41,949
Less taxes = 23,821
Net Income = 18,128
EPS = 18,128 ÷ 36,612 = $ 0.49
Expected market price = 0.49 x 17.86 = 8.75
Price of shares to be bought back = $ 415,121 ÷ 59,052 = $ 7.029
Decrease in value per share = $ 16.25 – 8.75 = 7.50

ROE = 18,128 ÷ 257,497 = 7.04%

We can safely say that the best option for BKI is to go for a complete buy back of
