Buyout Price Estimate What does everyone expect the buyout price to be? 2? 5? 10? 15?
From what I know, the outstanding shares is around 256 million. The formula to determine the price per share is:
Price per Share = (Total Consideration) / (Number of Outstanding Shares)
If, for example, they sell for 10 billion that'd result in around 4 dollars a share. Does anyone have any comparisons between other buyouts - or any thing worthwhile to share?
As an interesting read, I found this paragraph online that I thought was insightful regarding buyouts. "It's important to note that this formula is just a general way to estimate the price per share in a buyout and may not always be applicable in all cases. The actual price per share may be influenced by various factors such as the financial condition of the target company, the negotiation power of the parties involved, and regulatory requirements, among others."
Have a good weekend everybody!
