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
Step 1
Lender lends $100
80 UST STRIPS (→ 100 at yr 5) · 10 tax prefund + fees · 10 capital to ProjectStep 2
Project capital
existing 100 + new 10 = working base 110Step 3
Warrant — 20% fully diluted
20% of 110 = 22 · denominator 100 + 22 = 122 · 22 / 122 = 18.0328%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.
