Unit Economics & Scenarios

Every figure below traces to the same arithmetic: $100 lent becomes 80 of Treasury collateral, 10 of prefunded tax and fees, and 10 of growth capital on top of an existing 100 of enterprise value.

Per-$100 walkthrough

  1. Step 1

    Lender lends $100

    80 UST STRIPS (→ 100 at yr 5) · 10 tax prefund + fees · 10 capital to Project
  2. Step 2

    Project capital

    existing 100 + new 10 = working base 110
  3. Step 3

    Warrant — 20% fully diluted

    20% of 110 = 22 · denominator 100 + 22 = 122 · 22 / 122 = 18.0328%
  4. Step 4

    Unit split (§1273(c)(2))

    warrant value 18.033 · note issue price 81.967 · OID accretes back to 100

Three scenarios per $100

Enterprise value compounds off the 110 working base for five years.

Why this closes exactly

Each year's adjusted issue price plus that year's OID equals the next year's — the chain terminates exactly at face. The tax column sums exactly to the coupon reserve, and net cash to the Lender sums to zero. That is what “cash-neutral” means.
