SWAP RATIO Merger and Acquisitions
SWAP/Exchange ratio »The exchange ratio is the number of the acquirer’s shares that are offered for each share of the target. »The number of shares offered depends on the valuation of the target by the acquirer. »For example , in April 2006 . Alcatel and Lucent announced a stock for stock merger in which each Lucent shareholder would receive 0.1952 of an Alcatel share of Lucent they owned
Exchange ratio »For example , in May 2010 . ICICI Bank and Rajasthan Bank announced a stock for stock merger.
»The boards of both banks approved the swap ratio at 1 : 4.72, meaning 25 new shares of ICICI to be issued for every 118 shares of BoR

Exchange ratio Steps for determining SWAP ratio
1. To arrive at exchange ratio both the acquirer and the target conduct a valuation of the target. 2. From the above process the acquirer determines the maximum price it is willing to pay while the target determines minimum it is willing to accept .
3. Within this range , the actual agreement
Exchange ratio price will depend on each party’s other investment opportunities and relative bargaining abilities. 4 Based on the valuation of target , the acqurier determines the per share price it is offering to pay. 5 The exchange ratio is determined by dividing the per share offer price by the market price of the acquirer’s shares

Example »Let us assume that based on valuation of dynamic , United Communication has determined that it is willing to offer Rs 65 per share of Dynamic . This is 30% above the pre merger price of Dynamic. »In of United’s shares the Rs 65 offer is equivalent to United’s Rs 65/150 share »SWAP RATIO = .43 :1
Example »Based on the preceding data , United can calculate the total number of shares that it is willing to offer to complete a bid for 100% of Dynamic »The shares that United will issue : »((Offer price)(total outstanding shares of target))/price of acquirer or
»(Swap ratio )(total outstanding shares of target) »(Rs 65)(20,00,000)/Rs 150= 866666.67
Earning per share of surviving company »Calculating the EPS of the surviving company reveals the impact of the merger on the acquirer’s EPS »Combined earning = 6,00,00,000
»Total share outstanding = 50,00,000 +866666.67 = 58,66,666.67 »United communication ‘s impact on EPS Premerger EPS = Rs 10, post merger Rs 600,00,000/58,66,667 =10.23 This is an example of accretion in EPS (EPS accretive)
»Incase Dynamic rejects the offer and offer is revised to Rs 90 per share »Exchange ratio Rs 90/Rs 150= .60 shares »Rs 90/150 * 20,00,000 = 12,00,000 »Premerger EPS Rs 10 »Post merger EPS= 600,00,000/62.00,000= Rs 9.68
»United communication ‘s EPS declined the following the higher offer of Rs 90 . This is an example of dilution in EPS 6-10
Dilution in EPS »Dilution of EPS will occur any time the P/E ratio paid for the target exceeds the the P/E ratio of the company doing the acquiring. »The P/E ratio paid is calculated by dividing the offer price by EPS of the target company This is as follows : » P/E ratio Paid = Rs 65/Rs5= 13< 15
Rs 90/5 = 18 > 15
