5 VALUING COMMON STOCKS (Section 7.5) 6 7 Stocks can be evaluated in two ways: (1) find the stock price directly by calculating the present value of the 8 expected future dividends, or (2) find the stock price indirectly by first calculating the value of the entire 9 corporation, which is the the present value of the firm's expected future free cash flows, and then subtracting the 10 value of the debt and preferred stock to find the total value of the common equity. Only the first approach (the 11 dividend model) is discussed in this chapter. The second approach (the corporate valuation model) is described 12 in Chapter 13. 13 14 THE DISCOUNTED DIVIDEND APPROACH 15 16 The value of any financial asset is the present value of the future cash flows provided by the asset. When an 17 investor buys a share of stock, he or she typically expects to receive cash in the form of dividends and then, 18 eventually, to sell the stock and to receive cash from the sale. However, the price the first investor receives is 19 dependent upon the dividends the next investor expects to earn, and so on for different generations of investors. 20 Thus, the stock's value ultimately depends on the cash dividends the company is expected to provide and the 21 discount rate used to find the present value of those dividends. 22 23 24 Here is the basic dividend valuation equation: 25 D1 D2 DN + + . . . . 26 P0 = 2 ( 1 + rs ) ( 1 + rs ) ( 1 + rs ) N 27 28 29 The dividend stream theoretically extends on out forever, i.e., to n = infinity. Obviously, it would not be feasible 30 to deal with an infinite stream of dividends, but fortunately, a relatively simple equation has been developed that 31 can be used to find the PV of the dividend stream, provided it is growing at a constant rate. 32 33 34 VALUING A CONSTANT GROWTH STOCK (Section 7.6) 35 36 In the constant growth model, we assume that the dividend and stock will grow forever at a constant growth rate. 37 Naturally, assuming a constant growth rate for the rest of eternity is a rather bold assumption. However, 38 considering the implications of imperfect information, information asymmetry, and general uncertainty, the 39 assumption of constant growth is often reasonable. It is reasonable to guess that a given stock will experience 40 ups and downs throughout its life. By assuming constant growth, we are trying to find the average of the good 41 times and the bad times, and we assume that we will see both scenarios over the firm's life. In addition to a 42 constant growth rate, we also need the estimated long-term required return for the stock, and it too must be 43 constant. If these variables are constant, our price equation for common stock simplifies to the following 44 expression:

B D1 ( rs g )
In this equation, the long-run growth rate (g) can be approximated by multiplying the firm's return on assets by the retention ratio. Generally speaking, the long-run growth rate of a firm is likely to fall between 5% and 8% a year. EXAMPLE: CONSTANT GROWTH A firm just paid a $1.15 dividend and its dividend is expected to grow at a constant rate of 8%. What is its stock price, assuming it has a required return of 13.4%?

This chart shows that the stock price has a positive relationship with the dividend and the growth rate, and a negative relationship with the required return. Furthermore, we see that the dividend has a linear relationship with price, while the growth rate seems to have a quadratic relationship. The relationship between required return and stock price is not only negative, but it is a quadratic relationship with greater convexity than the growth rate. This indicates that the required return is the factor that more directly influences the stock price. In other words, required return is the value driver in this valuation technique. However, the final effects also depend on the amount of change in each of the three variables. If the required return and dividend are expected to be stable, but the dividend growth rate is expected to change significantly, then the growth rate will be the primary determinant of the stock price. DO STOCK PRICES REFLECT LONG-TERM OR SHORT-TERM CASH FLOWS? Managers often claim that stock prices are "short-term" in nature in the sense that they reflect what is happening in the near-term and ignore the long-term. We can use the results for the constant growth model to shed light on this claim. The first step is to forecast the dividends for the next 5 years. Then we find the present value of these dividends and compare that PV with the current stock price, which reflects the PV of all future dividends. P0 = D0 = g= rs = Year Dividend 0 $1.15 $23.00 $1.15 8% 13.4% 1 $1.24 2 $1.34 $4.98 $23.00 21.6% 78.4% 3 $1.45 4 $1.56 5 $1.69
PV of dividends in Years 1 through 5 = Current stock price = Percent of current stock price due to dividends in Years 1 through 5 = Percent of current stock price due to dividends beyond Year 5 =
For most stock, the percentage of the current price that is due to long-term cash flows is over 80%.

This expression tells us that the expected return on a stock comprises two components. First, it consists of the expected dividend yield, which is simply the next expected dividend divided by the current price. The second component of the expected return is the expected capital gains yield. The expected capital gains yield is the expected annual price appreciation of the stock, and is given by g. This shows us the dual role of g in the constant growth rate model. Not only does g indicate expected dividend growth, but it is also the expected stock price growth rate. EXAMPLE: EXPECTED RATE OF RETURN ON A CONSTANT GROWTH STOCK You buy a stock for $23, and you expect the next annual dividend to be $1.242. Furthermore, you expect the dividend to grow at a constant rate of 8%. What is the expected rate of return on the stock, and what is the dividend yield of the stock? P0 D1 g rs Dividend yield $23.00 $1.242 8% 13.40%
Dividend Yield + Capital Gains Yield = Expected Rate of Return
5.40%
5.40% + 8% = 13.40%

A B C D E F G H 179 Specifically, we will predict as many future dividends as we can and discount them back to the present. Then we will treat all dividends to be received after the convention of constant growth rate with the Gordon constant 180 growth model described above. The point in time when the dividend begins to grow constantly is called the 181 182 horizon date. When we calculate the constant growth dividends, we solve for a terminal value (or a continuing 183 value) as of the horizon date. The terminal value can be summarized as: 184 DN+1 DN (1 + g) 185 TVN = PN = = ( rs g ) ( rs g ) 186 187 188 This condition holds true, where N is the terminal date. The terminal value can be described as the expected 189 value of the firm in the time period corresponding to the horizon date. 190 191 EXAMPLE: NONCONSTANT GROWTH 192 193 A company's stock just paid a $1.15 dividend, which is expected to grow at 30% for the next three years. After 194 three years the dividend is expected to grow constantly at 8% forever.
