This has a lot of potential. ...Thanks for the idea. This has a lot of potential. However after some thought, it could equally reflect a 4% chance of failure (numbers are rounded).<br /><br />Assume:<br />* CRV expected value at closing = 50c<br />* 4% chance of failure<br />* TRBN returns to 2.50 on failure ( 52 week low is 2.29)<br />* Assume EBS does not rise on failure<br />* TRBN cost of equity is 13%<br />* Deal is about 3 months from closing<br />* TRBN @ 4.43 , EBS @ 18.48<br /><br /><br />96% chance of 4.685 (current deal price + 50 discounted by 1/4 of 13%) = 4.5<br />4% chance of -1.93 = -.077<br />=4.42<br /><br />You can obviously establish different expected values of the CRVs, your expected losses etc.<br /><br />Given that around 5% of friendly deals fail then TRBN may in fact be overvalued.neilhttp://longterm.blogspot.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3190293047729939700.post-21990235026712631532010-09-11T21:21:37.404-04:002010-09-11T21:21:37.404-04:00Your table appears to be brokenYour table appears to be brokenneilhttp://longterm.blogspot.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3190293047729939700.post-8540601162995046862010-09-11T15:51:20.798-04:002010-09-11T15:51:20.798-04:00Very cool, that makes a whole lot more sense :) So...Very cool, that makes a whole lot more sense :) So it looks like a decent risk/reward situation.. let me read up more on these companies and see if i still feel like going ahead with this arb. play. <br /><br />thanks a lot!<br /><br />-JoeAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3190293047729939700.post-20381989300376602822010-09-11T14:54:29.959-04:002010-09-11T14:54:29.959-04:00i did not explain it properly.
so first establish ...i did not explain it properly.<br />so first establish the arbitrage buy buying lets say 2242 shares of TRBN and shorting 368 shares of EBS.<br /><br />if the acquisition closes,in Q4 you will get the following:<br />cash : $1.365per share<br />EBS Shares worth: $3.03per share of TRBN held<br />total $4.4 (TRBN trades at $4.42)<br /><br />and 2242 CRVs entitling you to claim $1.9 per CRV if clinical studies are successful according to predefined milestones.<br /><br />so the implied value of the CRV is 2 cents( TRBN current price $4.4 - merger consideration $1.365+ $3.03)<br /><br />in scenario 1, if the CRV pays the maximum amount you will get $1.9 per share or ($1.9* 2242) your cost is $44.84 , or( .02* 2242)<br /><br />in scenario 2 if the CRV does not pay at all your will lose $44.84. <br /><br />hope that helps.Samihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17866240785310374236noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3190293047729939700.post-52010408035795643832010-09-11T13:48:03.687-04:002010-09-11T13:48:03.687-04:00Sorry i am not sure i understand the CRV math:( I&...Sorry i am not sure i understand the CRV math:( I'm a relative newbie.<br /><br />Example:<br />1. Let's say i buy $10K worth of TRBN (i.e. approx. 2242 shares)<br /><br />Scenario 1:<br />The acquisition goes through:<br />1. I get $4.55 per share.<br />&& the CRV is paid out<br /><br />Scenario 2:<br />The acquisition goes through:<br />1. I get $4.55 per share <br />&& the CRV is not paid out<br /><br />What is the upside per share in Scenario #1?<br /><br />Thanks in advance for the clarification.<br /><br />-JoeAnonymousnoreply@blogger.com
