hard · Investment Banking implied-share-price

A firm has an Equity Value of $9,000.0 million. It has $2,000.0 million in debt and $600.0 million in cash. The company also reports a Noncontrolling Interest (NCI) of $300.0 million on the balance sheet. However, the NCI is associated with a subsidiary that is not included in the consolidated EBITDA used for the multiple.

How should the EV bridge be adjusted?

  1. The NCI must always be added to Enterprise Value no matter how the subsidiary's EBITDA is treated.
  2. The Debt of the unconsolidated subsidiary should also be added back to EV so the two bridges stay aligned.
  3. The NCI should be subtracted from Enterprise Value instead of added in this situation.
  4. The NCI should be excluded from the Enterprise Value bridge to maintain consistency with EBITDA.
