Reading 60: Equity Valuation: Concepts and Basic Tools

LOS e: Calculate and interpret the intrinsic value of an equity security based on the Gordon (constant) growth dividend discount model or a two-stage dividend discount model, as appropriate.

 

 

Given the following estimated financial results, value the stock of FishnChips, Inc., using the infinite period dividend discount model (DDM).

  • Sales of $1,000,000.
  • Earnings of $150,000.
  • Total assets of $800,000.
  • Equity of $400,000.
  • Dividend payout ratio of 60.0%.
  • Average shares outstanding of 75,000.
  • Real risk free interest rate of 4.0%.
  • Expected inflation rate of 3.0%.
  • Expected market return of 13.0%.
  • Stock Beta at 2.1.

The per share value of FishnChips stock is approximately: (Note: Carry calculations out to at least 3 decimal places.)

A)
Unable to calculate stock value because ke < g.
B)
$17.91.
C)
$26.86.


 

Here, we are given all the inputs we need. Use the following steps to calculate the value of the stock:

First, expand the infinite period DDM:
DDM formula: P0 = D1 / (ke – g)

D1> >

= (Earnings × Payout ratio) / average number of shares outstanding> >

>>

= ($150,000 × 0.60) / 75,000 = $1.20> >

ke> >

= nominal risk free rate + [beta × (expected market return – nominal risk free rate)]

Note: Nominal risk-free rate

= (1 + real risk free rate) × (1 + expected inflation) – 1

 

= (1.04)×(1.03) – 1 = 0.0712, or 7.12%.

 

ke

= 7.12% + [2.1 × (13.0% ? 7.12%)] = 0.19468

g

= (retention rate × ROE)

Retention

= (1 – Payout) = 1 – 0.60 = 0.40.

 

ROE

= (net income / sales)(sales / total assets)(total assets / equity)

 

= (150,000 / 1,000,000)(1,000,000 / 800,000)(800,000 / 400,000)

 

= 0.375

 

g

= 0.375 × 0.40 = 0.15

Then, calculate: P0 = D1 / (ke – g) = $1.20 / (0.19468 ? 0.15) = 26.86.

Which of the following statements concerning security valuation is least accurate?

A)
A stock to be held for two years with a year-end dividend of $2.20 per share, an estimated value of $20.00 at the end of two years, and a required return of 15% is estimated to be worth $18.70 currently.
B)
A stock with a dividend last year of $3.25 per share, an expected dividend growth rate of 3.5%, and a required return of 12.5% is estimated to be worth $36.11.
C)
A stock with an expected dividend payout ratio of 30%, a required return of 8%, an expected dividend growth rate of 4%, and expected earnings of $4.15 per share is estimated to be worth $31.13 currently.


A stock with a dividend last year of $3.25 per share, an expected dividend growth rate of 3.5%, and a required return of 12.5% is estimated to be worth $37.33 using the DDM where Po = D1 / (k ? g). We are given Do = $3.25, g = 3.5%, and k = 12.5%. What we need to find is D1 which equals Do × (1 + g) therefore D1 = $3.25 × 1.035 = $3.36 thus Po = 3.36 / (0.125 ? 0.035) = $37.33.

In the answer choice where the stock value is $18.70, discounting the future cash flows back to the present gives the present value of the stock. the future cash flows are the dividend in year 1 plus the dividend and value of the stock in year 2 thus the equation becomes: Vo = 2.2 / 1.15 + (2.2 + 20) / 1.152 = $18.70

For the answer choice where the stock value is $31.13 use the DDM which is Po = D1 / (k ? g). We are given k = 0.08, g = 0.04, and what we need to find is next year’s dividend or D1. D1 = Expected earnings × payout ratio = $4.15 × 0.3 = $1.245 thus Po = $1.245 / (0.08 ? 0.04) = $31.13

What is the value of a stock that paid a $0.25 dividend last year, if dividends are expected to grow at a rate of 6% forever? Assume that the risk-free rate is 5%, the expected return on the market is 10%, and the stock's beta is 0.5.

A)
$17.67.
B)
$16.67.
C)
$3.53.


The discount rate is ke = 0.05 + 0.5(0.10 ? 0.05) = 0.075. Use the infinite period dividend discount model to value the stock. The stock value = D1 / (ke – g) = (0.25 × 1.06) / (0.075 – 0.06) = $17.67.

An analyst has gathered the following data for Webco, Inc:

  • Retention = 40%
  • ROE = 25%
  • k = 14%

Using the infinite period, or constant growth, dividend discount model, calculate the price of Webco’s stock assuming that next years earnings will be $4.25.

A)
$63.75.
B)
$55.00.
C)
$125.00.


g = (ROE)(RR) = (0.25)(0.4) = 10%

V = D1 / (k – g)

D1 = 4.25 (1 ? 0.4) = 2.55

G = 0.10

K – g = 0.14 ? 0.10 = 0.04

V = 2.55 / 0.04 = 63.75

Use the following information and the multi-period dividend discount model to find the value of Computech’s common stock.

  • Last year’s dividend was $1.62.
  • The dividend is expected to grow at 12% for three years.
  • The growth rate of dividends after three years is expected to stabilize at 4%.
  • The required return for Computech’s common stock is 15%.

Which of the following statements about Computech's stock is least accurate?

A)
At the end of two years, Computech's stock will sell for $20.64.
B)
Computech's stock is currently worth $17.46.
C)
The dividend at the end of year three is expected to be $2.27.


The dividends for years 1, 2, and 3 are expected to be ($1.62)(1.12) = $1.81; ($1.81)(1.12) = $2.03; and ($2.03)(1.12) = $2.27. At the end of year 2, the stock should sell for $2.27 / (0.15 – 0.04) = $20.64. The stock should sell currently for ($20.64 + $2.03) / (1.15)2 + ($1.81) / (1.15) = $18.71.

Given the following information, compute the implied dividend growth rate.

  • Profit margin = 10.0%
  • Total asset turnover = 2.0 times
  • Financial leverage = 1.5 times
  • Dividend payout ratio = 40.0%

A)
4.5%.
B)
18.0%.
C)
12.0%.


Retention ratio equals 1 – 0.40, or 0.60.
Return on equity equals (10.0%)(2.0)(1.5) = 30.0%.
Dividend growth rate equals (0.60)(30.0%) = 18.0%.

Use the following information and the dividend discount model to find the value of GoFlower, Inc.’s, common stock.

  • Last year’s dividend was $3.10 per share.
  • The growth rate in dividends is estimated to be 10% forever.
  • The return on the market is expected to be 12%.
  • The risk-free rate is 4%.
  • GoFlower’s beta is 1.1.

A)
$34.95.
B)
$121.79.
C)
$26.64.


The required return for GoFlower is 0.04 + 1.1(0.12 – 0.04) = 0.128 or 12.8%. The expect dividend is ($3.10)(1.10) = $3.41. GoFlower’s common stock is then valued using the infinite period dividend discount model (DDM) as ($3.41) / (0.128 – 0.10) = $121.79.

Assuming the risk-free rate is 5% and the expected return on the market is 12%, what is the value of a stock with a beta of 1.5 that paid a $2 dividend last year if dividends are expected to grow at a 5% rate forever?

A)
$12.50.
B)
$17.50.
C)
$20.00.


P0 = D1 / (k ? g)

Rs = Rf + β(RM ? Rf) = 0.05 + 1.5(0.12 ? 0.05) = 0.155

D1 = D0(1 + g) = 2 × (1.05) = 2.10

P0 = 2.10 / (0.155 ? 0.05) = $20.00

Assume that a stock paid a dividend of $1.50 last year. Next year, an investor believes that the dividend will be 20% higher and that the stock will be selling for $50 at year-end. Assume a beta of 2.0, a risk-free rate of 6%, and an expected market return of 15%. What is the value of the stock?

A)
$45.00.
B)
$40.32.
C)
$41.77.


Using the Capital Asset Pricing Model, we can determine the discount rate equal to 0.06 + 2(0.15 – 0.06) = 0.24. The dividends next year are expected to be $1.50 × 1.2 = $1.80. The present value of the future stock price and the future dividend are determined by discounting the expected cash flows at the discount rate of 24%: (50 + 1.8) / 1.24 = $41.77.

A firm will not pay dividends until four years from now. Starting in year four dividends will be $2.20 per share, the retention ratio will be 40%, and ROE will be 15%. If k = 10%, what should be the value of the stock?

A)
$41.32.
B)
$55.25.
C)
$58.89.


g = ROE × retention ratio = ROE × b = 15 × 0.4 = 6%

Based on the growth rate we can calculate the expected price in year 3:

P3 = D4 / (k ? g) = 2.2 / (0.10 ? 0.06) = $55

The stock value today is: P0 = PV (55) at 10% for 3 periods = $41.32
