Simulation For The Merger And Acquisition Deal

As a seller of SS to BV or IB, the reservation price for SS should be the minimum price for SS to accept the deal (either the cash deal offered by IB or the stock deal offered by BV). It is known that the minimum reservation prices of SS is the market price ($42.9) for cash deal ((Harvard Business Publishing, 2015). The determination of reservation price for BV needs to incorporate synergies and control benefits as a buyer. As a result, we will choose the highest reservation price using valuation methods and that is, $49.83 with the optimal synergies and WACC method. Though both differed from the average prices in the class, it is reasonable to suspect individuals neglected the cash deal option of IB and contributes to the higher reservation price for SS than my expectation. Also, for the overestimation of reservation price for BV, it is possible that single valuation methodology may trigger biases to lift up the result from its fair value. Hence, a weighted average of all valuation for the price may be more reliable and accurate.

In Table 1 these assumptions are used to find the present value of the additional cash flows as well as the present value of the tax shield. From this merger approximately $36.24 would be added in value per share this results in a value of $107.24 per share. We recommend that CSX does not offer more than $95 per share. This will ensure that CSX does not overpay for the acquisition and will create a positive NPV even if they do not realize all of the potential synergies.
