Answer 1

Soln : EBITDA for summit's beverages TTM = $345.85 million

Comparable/peer firms EV/EBITDA = 7.50, summit's beverages debt = $ 923.48 million, common stock share = 102.50 million

EV, enterprise value = Market capitalization(M) + preffered shares+ debt - cash

Cash = 0 , preffered shares = 0

Using the TTM EBITDA, we will find out EV of the summit's beverages, EV = 7.50* 345.85 = $2593.875 million

M+0 + 923.48 = 2593.875, M = $ 2593.875- 923.48 = $1670.395

Value of common shares = Market Capitalization/no. of shares = 1670.395/102.50 = $16.30

Option D is the correct answer.
