Answer #1

a]

EBITDA multiple = EV / EBITDA

Average EBITDA multiple = 4.63

b]

EV of Stillwater Energy = EBITDA of Stillwater Energy * average industry EBITDA multiple

EV of Stillwater Energy = $150 million * 4.63 ==> $694,219,989

c]

Equity value = Enterprise Value – total debt + cash

Equity value = $694,219,989 - $75.00 million + $150.95 million ==> $770,169,989

d]

Price per share = equity value / number of shares outstanding

Price per share = $770,169,989 / 100 million ==> $7.71

e]

If Stillwater Energy’s current stock price is $4.98 per share, then it is undervalued as the value per share calculated based on equity value is $7.71
