This is a business case research for Prada’s Hong Kong IPO for Financial Management course.
The aim for this case study is to answer the following questions:
Question 1: What are the pro and cons for Prada to be listed in Hong Kong?
Question 2: What are the risks (a) of getting listed and (b) of being listed?
Question 3: Comparable valuation approach, what would be the IPO price range (a) using the Forward P/E
ratio and (b) Forward EV/EBITDA ratio assuming the company sample is made of all companies?
Question 4: DCF valuation approach, what would be the IPO objective range using a DCF method.
(a) Free Cash-Flow to the Firm (FCFF) can be computed from Exhibit 3.
(b) Compute and explain why the WACC equals 8.55%.
(c) Calculate the Terminal Value assuming it is the average of the 2 methods described in the Case study.
Note that the perpetual growth rate (g) is 2.5% and that the WACC is equal to 8.55%.
(d) Finally, after discounting the FCFF and Terminal value and after consideration of the Net Debt (which
includes the Holding Debt), compute the Pre-money share price (with 2,500 million shares) and Post-money
share price (with 2,500 million shares and the newly shares issued).
