Nonat, Joseph Johnny T. Cortez, Ma. Reynaliza S. Sorel, Ma. Teodorica B. Submitted to: RHEA G. GARCIA Background of Company: E mperador Inc. (EMP) was originally incorporated on November 26, 2001 as Touch Solutions, Inc. (TSI) with the primary purpose of establishing and operating information technology services and products. On July 31, 2013, the Securities and Exchange Commission approved the change in the Company's primary purpose to that of a holding company. On September 5, 2013, the SEC approved the change in name from TSI to the present one. The Company is currently a holding company which operates an integrated business of manufacturing, bottling and distributing distilled spirits and other alcoholic beverages. Sometime in August and September 2013, Alliance Global Group, Inc. (AGI), the Company, and Emperador Distillers, Inc. (EDI), a subsidiary of AGI then, entered into a series of transactions whereby AGI acquired 87.55% ownership interest in the Company and the Company concurrently acquired 100% ownership in EDI from AGI. EMP thus became a subsidiary of AGI and became the sole owner of EDI. EMP, through EDI and its subsidiaries, is an integrated manufacturer, distributor, and bottler of brandy and other alcoholic beverages. The Company's brands...

...Fiv “B & L Inc.” Operations Management September 7, 2014 Amanda Pfruender B& L Inc. is a manufacturer of trailers for highway transport trucks. They manufacture about forty trailers per year by using three different divisions. The current structure has a trailer division, a sandblast and paint division as well as the metal fabricating division. Brian Wilson is the materials manager at B & L Inc. He has been asked by the general manager to look for opportunities that could reduce costs to the organization. He knows that the decision must be made quickly and correctly to have the best result. Brian has decided to focus his efforts to reduce costs on the metal fabricating department. One item in particular that could be considered to be outsourced is the outrigger bracket. This is an accessory that is used to secure oversized containers. It is consisted of four component parts welded together. The final step in the process is the manual welding. Each trailer assembled requires twenty of those completed brackets. Brian has asked his purchasing agent, Alison, to request quotes from three local companies on that particular part. He first had to look at the current conditions and costs of assembly for the part. In the current situation there was a required 2 week lead time but not much stock had to be held because they were coordinating very well. Holding costs on this product is about twenty percent per year. For the total manufacturing it would cost B&L...

...Value/EBITDA Multiple l The Classic Definition Value Market Value of Equity + Market Value of Debt = EBITDA Earnings before Interest, Taxes and Depreciation l The No-Cash Version Value Market Value of Equity + Market Value of Debt - Cash = EBITDA Earnings before Interest, Taxes and Depreciation - Interest Income Reasons for Increased Use 1. The multiple can be computed even for firms that are reporting net losses, since earnings before interest, taxes and depreciation are usually positive. 2. For firms in certain industries, such as cellular, which require a substantial investment in infrastructure and long gestation periods, this multiple seems to be more appropriate than the price/earnings ratio. 3. In leveraged buyouts, where the key factor is cash generated by the firm prior to all discretionary expenditures, the EBITDA is the measure of cash flows from operations that can be used to support debt payment at least in the short term. 4. By looking at cashflows prior to capital expenditures, it may provide a better estimate of “optimal value”, especially if the capital expenditures are unwise or earn substandard returns. 5. By looking at the value of the firm and cashflows to the firm it allows for comparisons across firms with different financial leverage. Value/EBITDA Multiples: September 1997 Value/EBITDA Multiples: September 1997 600 500 400 300 200 100 0 Std. Dev = 14.65 Mean = 12 N = 3820.00 VEBITDA The Determinants of Value/EBITDA Multiples:...
