Straight from the bank
A few real cards. Reveal each answer the way you would in the app.
The terminal value (often 60–80% of total value): the perpetuity growth rate and the exit multiple. Then WACC — too low inflates value — and the revenue/margin assumptions in the projection.
If the after-tax yield on what you're acquiring exceeds the after-tax cost of financing it (cash, debt, or stock), EPS rises. Rough all-stock rule: higher acquirer P/E than target → accretive.
EV is the cost to acquire the operating business. Cash is a non-operating asset the buyer effectively gets back, so it nets against the debt assumed and reduces the net price.
