2011 7-1 McGraw-Hill/Irwin Copyright by the McGraw-Hill Companies, Inc. All rights reserved. Cash Flows for Stockholders If you own a share of stock, you can receive cash in two ways The company pays dividends You sell your shares, either to another investor in the market or back to the company As with bonds, the price of the stock is the present value of these expected cash flows Dividends cash income Selling capital gains 7-2 One Period Example Suppose you are thinking of purchasing the stock of Moore Oil, Inc. You expect it to pay a $2 dividend in one year You believe you can sell the stock for $14 at that time. You require a return of 20% on investments of this risk What is the maximum you would be willing to pay? 7-3 One Period Example D1 = $2 dividend expected in one year R = 20% P1 = $14 CF1 = $2 + $14 = $16 Compute the PV of the expected cash flows (2 + 14) P0 = = $13.33 1.20 7-4 Two Period Example What if you decide to hold the stock for two years? D1 = $2.00 D2 = $2.10 CF1 = $2.00 CF2 = $2.10 + $14.70 = $16.80 P2 = $14.70 Now how much would you be willing to pay? 2 (2.10 + 14.70) P0 = + = $13.33 2 1.20 (1.20) 7-5 Three Period Example What if you decide to hold the stock for three years? D1 = $2.00 CF1 = $2.00 D2 = $2.10 CF2 = $2.10 D3 = $2.205 CF3 = $2.205 + $15.435 = $17.640 P3 = $15.435 Now how much would you be willing to pay? 2 2.10 (2.205 + 15.435 ) P0 = + + = $13.33 2 3 1.20 (1.20 ) (1.20) 7-6 Three Period Example Using TI BAII+ Cash Flow Worksheet Display Cash Flows: CF0 = 0 CF1 = 2.00 CF2 = 2.10 CF3 = 17.64 You Enter C00 C01 F01 C02 F02 C03 F03 I NPV 0 2 1 2.10 1 17.64 1 20 13.33 7-7 Developing The Model You could continue to push back when you would sell the stock You would find that the price of the stock is really just the present value of all expected future dividends 7-8 Stock Value = PV of Dividends ^ P0 = D1 (1+R)1 + D2 (1+R)2 + D3 (1+R)3 ++ D (1+R) Dt P0 = t t =1 (1 + R ) How can we estimate all future dividend payments? 7-9 Estimating Dividends: 3 Special Cases Zero Growth Firm will pay a constant dividend forever Like preferred stock Price is computed using the perpetuity formula Constant dividend growth Firm will increase the dividend by a constant percent every period Nonconstant growth Dividend growth is not consistent initially, but settles down to constant growth eventually 7-10 1. Zero Growth Dividends expected at regular intervals forever = perpetuity P0 = D / R Suppose stock is expected to pay a $0.50 dividend every quarter and the required return is 10% with quarterly compounding. What is the price? 0.50 P0 = = $20 .10 4 7-11 2. Constant Growth Stock One whose dividends are expected to grow forever at a constant rate, g. D1 = D0(1+g)1 D2 = D0(1+g)2 Dt = Dt(1+g)t D0 = Dividend JUST PAID D1 Dt = Expected dividends 7-12 Projected Dividends D0 = $2.00 and constant g = 6% D1 = D0(1+g) = 2(1.06) = $2.12 D2 = D1(1+g) = 2.12(1.06) = $2.2472 D3 = D2(1+g) = 2.2472(1.06) $2.3820 = 7-13 Dividend Growth Model (1 + g) P0 = D0 t t =1 (1 + R ) ^ D0(1+g) P0 = R-g t D1 = R-g Gordon Growth Model 7-14 DGM Example 1 Suppose Big D, Inc. just paid a dividend of $.50. It is expected to increase its dividend by 2% per year. If the market requires a return of 15% on assets of this risk, how much should the stock be selling for? D0= $0.50 D0 (1 + g) P0 = Rg g = 2% R = 15% 0.50(1 + .02) P0 = = $3.92 .15 .02 7-15 DGM Example 2 Suppose TB Pirates, Inc. is expected to pay a $2 dividend in one year. If the dividend is expected to grow at 5% per year and the required return is 20%, what is the price? D1 D1 = $2.00 P0 = g = 5% Rg r = 20% 2.00 P0 = = $13.33 .20 .05 7-16 Stock Price Sensitivity to Dividend Growth, g 250 D1 = $2; R = 20% Stock Price 200 150 100 50 0 0 0.05 0.1 0.15 0.2 Growth Rate 7-17 Stock Price Sensitivity to Required Return, R 250 D1 = $2; g = 5% Stock Price 200 150 100 50 0 0 0.05 0.1 0.15 0.2 0.25 0.3 Growth Rate 7-18 Example 7.3 Gordon Growth Company - I Gordon Growth Company is expected to pay a dividend of $4 next period and dividends are expected to grow at 6% per year. The required return is 16%. What is the current price? D1 P0 = Rg 4.00 P0 = = $40 .16 .06 7-19 Example 7.3 Gordon Growth Company - II What is the price expected to be in year 4? D 4 (1 + g) D5 P4 = = Rg R-g D5 = D1(1 + g)4 4.00(1 + .06 ) P4 = = $50.50 .16 .06 4 7-20 Example 7.3 Gordon Growth Company - II What is the implied return given the change in price during the four year period? 50.50 = 40(1+return)4; return = 6% 4 ; 40 ; 50.50 ; 0 ; = 6% The price grows at the same rate as dividends 7-21 ConstantGrowthModelConditions 1. 2. 3. 4. Dividend expected to grow at g forever Stock price expected to grow at g forever Expected dividend yield is constant Expected capital gains yield constant and is equal to g 5. Expected total return, R, must be > g 6. Expected total return (R): = expected dividend yield (DY) + expected growth rate (g) = dividend yield + g 7-22 3. Nonconstant Growth Suppose a firm is expected to increase dividends by 20% in one year and by 15% in two years. After that dividends will increase at a rate of 5% per year indefinitely. If the last dividend was $1 and the required return is 20%, what is the price of the stock? Remember that we have to find the PV of all expected future dividends. 7-23 Nonconstant Growth Solution Compute the dividends until growth levels off D1 = 1(1.2) = $1.20 D2 = 1.20(1.15) = $1.38 D3 = 1.38(1.05) = $1.449 Find the expected future price at the beginning of the constant growth period: P2 = D3 / (R g) = 1.449 / (.2 - .05) = 9.66 Find the present value of the expected future cash flows P0 = 1.20 / (1.2) + (1.38 + 9.66) / (1.2)2 = 8.67 7-24 Nonconstant + Constant growth Basic PV of all Future Dividends Formula P0 = D1 (1 + R ) 1 D2 + (1 + R ) 2 D3 + (1 + R ) 3 D +. . . + (1 + R ) Dividend Growth Model = D t +1 Pt R g 7-25 Nonconstant + Constant growth P0 = D1 (1 + R ) 1 Because + D2 (1 + R ) 2 P2 + 2 (1 + R) Dt P2 = (1 + R)t t =3 If g constant after t = 2, then D3 P2 = Rg 7-26 Nonconstant growth followed by constant growth: 0 rs=20% g = 20% D0 = 1.00 1 2 g = 15% 1.20 3 g = 5% 1.38 1.449 1.0000 0.9583 ^ P2 = 6.7083 8.6667 $1.449 = $9.66 0.20 0.05 = P0 7-27 Quick Quiz: Part 1 What is the value of a stock that is expected to pay a constant dividend of $2 per year if the required return is 15%? 2.00 P0 = = $13.33 .15 What if the company starts increasing dividends by 3% per year beginning with the next dividend? The required return remains at 15%. 2.00(1.03 ) P0 = = $17.17 .15 .03 7-28 Features of Common Stock Voting Rights Stockholders elect directors Proxy voting Classes of stock Founders shares Class A and Class B shares 7-29 Features of Common Stock Other Rights Share proportionally in declared dividends Share proportionally in remaining assets during liquidation Preemptive right Right of first refusal to buy new stock issue to maintain proportional ownership if desired 7-30 Dividend Characteristics Dividends are not a liability of the firm until declared by the Board of Directors A firm cannot go bankrupt for not declaring dividends Dividends and Taxes Dividends are not tax deductible for firm Taxed as ordinary income for individuals Dividends received by corporations have a minimum 70% exclusion from taxable income 7-31 Features of Preferred Stock Dividends Must be paid before dividends can be paid to common stockholders Not a liability of the firm Can be deferred indefinitely Most preferred dividends are cumulative Missed preferred dividends have to be paid before common dividends can be paid Preferred stock generally does not carry voting rights 7-32 The Stock Markets Primary vs. Secondary Markets Primary = new-issue market Secondary = existing shares traded among investors Dealers vs. Brokers Dealer: Maintains an inventor Ready to buy or sell at any time Think Used car dealer Broker: Brings buyers and sellers together Think Real estate broker 7-33 New York Stock Exchange NYSE Euronext (merged 2007) Members (Historically) NYSE Specialist: Assigned broker/dealer Each stock has one assigned specialist All trading in that stock occurs at the specialists post 7-34 NASDAQ NASDAQ OMX (merged 2007) Dealer-based quotation system Multiple market makers Large portion of technology stocks 7-35 ECNs Electronic Communications Networks provide direct trading among investors Developed in late 1990s ECN orders transmitted to NASDAQ Observe live trading online at Batstrading.com 7-36 Reading Stock Quotes What information is provided in the stock quote? 7-37 Quick Quiz: Part 2 What are some of the major characteristics of common stock? What are some of the major characteristics of preferred stock? 7-38 Practice Problems Ch. 7 1. The Pancake House pays a constant annual dividend of $1.25 per share. How much are you willing to pay for one share if you require a 15 percent rate of return? 2. Healthy Foods just paid its annual dividend of $1.45 a share.
