VALUATION OF BONDS AND
SHARES
CHAPTER 3
LEARNING OBJECTIVES
 Explain the fundamental characteristics of ordinary shares,
preference shares and bonds (or debentures).
 Show the use of the present value concepts in the valuation of
shares and bonds.
 Learn about the linkage between the share values, earnings
and dividends and the required rate of return on the share.
 Focus on the uses and misuses of price-earnings (P/E) ratio.
2
Introduction
 Assets can be real or financial; securities like shares and
bonds are called financial assets while physical assets like
plant and machinery are called real assets.
 The concepts of return and risk, as the determinants of value,
are as fundamental and valid to the valuation of securities as
to that of physical assets.
 Efficient capital market implies a well-informed, properly
functioning capital market.
3
Concept of Value
 Book Value- Book value per share is determined as
net worth divided by the number of shares
outstanding. Book value reflects historical cost,
rather than value.
 Replacement Value- Replacement value is the
amount that a company would be required to spend
if it were to replace its existing assets in the current
condition.
4
Concept of Value
 Liquidation Value- Liquidation value is the
amount that a company could realise if it sold its
assets, after having terminated its business.
 Going Concern Value- Going concern value is the
amount that a company could realise if it sold its
business as an operating business.
 Market Value- Market value of an asset or security
is the current price at which the asset or the
security is being sold or bought in the market.
5
Features of a Bond
 Long-term debt instrument or security.
 Can be secured or unsecured.
 Interest Rate or coupon rate is fixed
 Face Value or par value of Rs 100 or Rs 1,000, and interest is
paid on face value.
 Maturity is fixed.
 Redemption value - may be redeemed at par or premium.
 Market Value- may be different from par value or redemption
value as it is traded in the market.
6
Bond Indentures
 Contract between the company and the
bondholders and includes
 The basic terms of the bonds
 The total amount of bonds issued
 A description of property used as security, if applicable
 Sinking fund provisions
 Call provisions
 Details of protective covenants
7
Types of Bonds
 Bonds with maturity
 Pure discount bonds -The bond discount is the
difference between the par value and the selling
price.
 Perpetual bonds
8
Bond with Maturity
9
Example
10
Yield to Maturity
11
Current Yield
 Current yield is the annual interest divided by the
bond’s current value.
 Example: The annual interest is Rs 60 on the
current investment of Rs 883.40. Therefore, the
current rate of return or the current yield is:
60/883.40 = 6.8 per cent.
 Current yield does not account for the capital gain
or loss.

Bond Value and Amortisation of Principal
14
Example
 Suppose the government is proposing to sell a 5-
year bond of Rs 1,000 at 8 per cent rate of interest
per annum. The bond amount will be amortised
(repaid) equally over its life. If an investor has a
minimum required rate of return of 7 per cent, what
is the bond’s present value for him?

Example
18
Pure Discount Bonds
 Pure discount bond do not carry an explicit rate of
interest.
 It provides for the payment of a lump sum amount at
a future date in exchange for the current price of the
bond.
 The difference between the face value of the bond
and its purchase price gives the return or YTM to the
investor.

21
Example
22
Perpetual Bonds
Perpetual bonds, also called consols, has an
indefinite life and therefore, it has no maturity
value. Perpetual bonds or debentures are
rarely found in practice.
23
Example
24
Bond Values and Changes in Interest Rates
 The value of the bond
declines as the market
interest rate (discount rate)
increases.
 The value of a 10-year, 12
per cent Rs 1,000 bond for
the market interest rates
ranging from 0 per cent to
30 per cent is shown
in the figure.
25
Bond Maturity and Interest Rate Risk
 The intensity of interest rate risk
would be higher on bonds with
long maturities than bonds with
short maturities.
 The differential value response
to interest rates changes between
short and long-term bonds will
always be true. Thus, two bonds
of same quality (in terms of the
risk of default) would have
different exposure to interest rate
risk.
26
Bond Value at Different Interest Rates
27
Bond Maturity and Interest Rate Risk
Bond Duration and Interest Rate Sensitivity
 The longer the maturity of a bond, the higher will be its
sensitivity to the interest rate changes. Similarly, the price of a
bond with low coupon rate will be more sensitive to the
interest rate changes.
 The bond’s price sensitivity can be more accurately estimated
by its duration. A bond’s duration is measured as the
weighted average of times to each cash flow (interest payment
or repayment of principal).
28
Duration of Bonds
 Let us consider two bonds with five-year maturity.
 The 8.5 per cent rate bond of Rs 1,000 face value has a current market
value of Rs 954.74 and a YTM of 10 per cent, and the 11.5 per cent rate
bond of Rs 1,000 face value has a current market value of Rs 1,044.57 and
a yield to maturity of 10.6 per cent.
 Next we find out the proportion of the present value of each flow to the
value of the bond.
 The duration of the bond is calculated as the weighted average of times to
the proportion of the present value of cash flows.

The Term Structure of Interest Rates
31
The Term Structure of Interest Rates
 The upward sloping yield curve implies that the long-term
yields are higher than the short-term yields. This is the normal
shape of the yield curve, which is generally verified by
historical evidence.
 Many economies in high-inflation periods have witnessed the
short-term yields being higher than the long-term yields. The
inverted yield curves result when the short-term rates are
higher than the long-term rates.
32
The Expectation Theory
 The expectation theory supports the upward sloping yield
curve since investors always expect the short-term rates to
increase in the future.
 This implies that the long-term rates will be higher than the
short-term rates.
 But in the present value terms, the return from investing in a
long-term security will equal to the return from investing in a
series of a short-term security.
33
The Expectation Theory
 The expectation theory assumes
 capital markets are efficient
 there are no transaction costs and
 investors’ sole purpose is to maximize their returns
 The long-term rates are geometric average of current and
expected short-term rates.
 A significant implication of the expectation theory is that
given their investment horizon, investors will earn the
same average expected returns on all maturity
combinations.
 Hence, a firm will not be able to lower its interest cost in
the long-run by the maturity structure of its debt.
34
The Liquidity Premium Theory
 Long-term bonds are more sensitive than the prices
of the short-term bonds to the changes in the
market rates of interest.
 Hence, investors prefer short-term bonds to the
long-term bonds.
 The investors will be compensated for this risk by
offering higher returns on long-term bonds.
 This extra return, which is called liquidity
premium, gives the yield curve its upward bias.
35
The Liquidity Premium Theory
 The liquidity premium theory means that rates on long-term
bonds will be higher than on the short-term bonds.
 From a firm’s point of view, the liquidity premium theory
suggests that as the cost of short-term debt is less, the firm
could minimize the cost of its borrowings by continuously
refinancing its short-term debt rather taking on long-term
debt.
36
The Segmented Markets Theory
 The segmented markets theory assumes that the
debt market is divided into several segments based
on the maturity of debt.
 In each segment, the yield of debt depends on the
demand and supply.
 Investors’ preferences of each segment arise
because they want to match the maturities of assets
and liabilities to reduce the susceptibility to interest
rate changes.
37
The Segmented Markets Theory
 The segmented markets theory approach assumes
investors do not shift from one maturity to another
in their borrowing—lending activities and
therefore, the shift in yields are caused by changes
in the demand and supply for bonds of different
maturities.
38
Default Risk and Credit Rating
 Default risk is the risk that a company will default
on its promised obligations to bondholders.
 Default premium is the spread between the
promised return on a corporate bond and the return
on a government bond with same maturity.

Valuation of Shares
 A company may issue two types of shares:
 ordinary shares and
 preference shares
 Features of Preference and Ordinary Shares
 Claims
 Dividend
 Redemption
 Conversion
41
Valuation of Preference Shares
42
Value of a Preference Share-Example
43
Valuation of Ordinary Shares
 The valuation of ordinary or equity shares is
relatively more difficult.
 The rate of dividend on equity shares is not known; also,
the payment of equity dividend is discretionary.
 The earnings and dividends on equity shares are generally
expected to grow, unlike the interest on bonds and
preference dividend.
44
Dividend Capitalisation
45
Example- Single Period Valuation
46
47
An under-valued share has a market price
less than the share’s present value.
An over-valued share has a market price
higher than the share’s present value.

51
Growth in Dividends
 Earnings and dividends of most companies grow
over time, at least, because of their retention
policies.
52
Normal Growth
 If a totally equity financed firm retains a constant
proportion of its annual earnings (b) and reinvests it
at its internal rate of return, which is its return on
equity (ROE), then it can be shown that the dividends
will grow at a constant rate equal to the product of
retention ratio and return on equity; that is,
g = b × ROE.
53
Normal Growth: Example
54
BV, EPS, DPS and Retained Earnings Under
Constant Growth Assumption
55
Perpetual Growth Model
56
Perpetual Growth Model
It is based on the following assumptions:
 The capitalization rate or the opportunity cost of capital must
be greater than the growth rate, (ke >g), otherwise absurd
results will be attained. If ke= g, the equation will yield an
infinite price, and if ke < g, the result will be a negative price.
 The initial dividend per share, DIV1, must be greater than zero
(i.e., DIV1 > 0).
 The relationship between ke and g is assumed to remain
constant and perpetual.
57
Example: Perpetual Growth
58
Super-normal Growth
 The dividends of a company may not grow at the same
constant rate indefinitely. It may face a two-stage growth
situation.
 In the first stage, dividends may grow at a super-normal
growth rate when the company is experiencing very high
demand for its products and is able to extract premium from
customers.
 Afterwards, the demand for the company’s products may
normalize and therefore, earnings and dividends may grow at
a normal growth rate.
59
Super-normal Growth
The share value in a two stage growth situation can be
determined in two parts.
 First, we can find the present value of constantly growing
dividend annuity for a definite super-normal growth period.
 Second, we can calculate the present value of constantly
growing dividend, indefinitely (in perpetuity), after the super-
normal growth period.
60
Example: Super-normal Growth

Example: Super-normal Growth

Example: Super-normal Growth
63
Example: Super-normal Growth
64
Firm Paying no Dividends
 Companies paying no dividends do command positive market
prices for their shares since the price today depends on the
future expectation of dividends.
 The non-payment of dividends may not last forever.
 Shareholders hold shares of such companies because they
expect that in the final analysis dividends will be paid, or they
will be able to realize capital gains.
65
Earnings Capitalisation
 Under two cases, the value of the share can be
determined by capitalising the expected earnings:
 When the firm pays out 100 per cent dividends; that is, it
does not retain any earnings.
 When the firm’s return on equity (ROE) is equal to its
opportunity cost of capital.
66
Equity Capitalisation Rate
67
Caution in Using Constant-Growth Formula
 Estimation errors
 Unsustainable high current growth
 Errors in forecasting dividends
68
EQUITY CAPITALIZATION RATE
69
Example: Equity Capitalization Rate
70
Linkages Between Share Price, Earnings And
Dividends
 Investors may choose between growth shares or income shares.
 Growth shares are those, which offer greater opportunities for capital gains.
 Dividend yield (i.e. dividend per shares as a percentage of the market price
of the share) on such shares would generally be low since companies would
follow a high retention policy in order to have a high growth rate.
 Income shares are those that pay higher dividends, and offer low prospects
for capital gains.
 Those investors who want regular income would prefer to buy income
shares, which pay high dividends regularly. On the other hand, if
investors desire to earn higher return via capital gains, they would
prefer to buy growth shares. They would like a profitable company to
retain its earnings in the expectation of higher market price of the share
in the future.

Valuing Growth Opportunities
75
Example
76
Price-Earnings (P/E) Ratio: How Significant?
 P/E ratio is calculated as the price of a share
divided by earning per share.
 Some people use P/E multiplier to value the shares
of companies.
 Alternatively, you could find the share value by
dividing EPS by E/P ratio, which is the reciprocal
of P/E ratio.
77
Price-Earnings (P/E) Ratio: How Significant?
78
Price-Earnings (P/E) Ratio: How Significant?
 Cautions:
 E/P ratio will be equal to the capitalisation rate only if the
value of growth opportunities is zero.
 A high P/E ratio is considered good but it could be high not
because the share price is high but because the earnings per
share are quite low.
 The interpretation of P/E ratio becomes meaningless
because of the measurement problems of EPS.

  • 57. Perpetual Growth Model It is based on the following assumptions:  The capitalization rate or the opportunity cost of capital must be greater than the growth rate, (ke >g), otherwise absurd results will be attained. If ke= g, the equation will yield an infinite price, and if ke < g, the result will be a negative price.  The initial dividend per share, DIV1, must be greater than zero (i.e., DIV1 > 0).  The relationship between ke and g is assumed to remain constant and perpetual. 57
  • 59. Super-normal Growth  The dividends of a company may not grow at the same constant rate indefinitely. It may face a two-stage growth situation.  In the first stage, dividends may grow at a super-normal growth rate when the company is experiencing very high demand for its products and is able to extract premium from customers.  Afterwards, the demand for the company’s products may normalize and therefore, earnings and dividends may grow at a normal growth rate. 59
  • 60. Super-normal Growth The share value in a two stage growth situation can be determined in two parts.  First, we can find the present value of constantly growing dividend annuity for a definite super-normal growth period.  Second, we can calculate the present value of constantly growing dividend, indefinitely (in perpetuity), after the super- normal growth period. 60
  • 65. Firm Paying no Dividends  Companies paying no dividends do command positive market prices for their shares since the price today depends on the future expectation of dividends.  The non-payment of dividends may not last forever.  Shareholders hold shares of such companies because they expect that in the final analysis dividends will be paid, or they will be able to realize capital gains. 65
  • 66. Earnings Capitalisation  Under two cases, the value of the share can be determined by capitalising the expected earnings:  When the firm pays out 100 per cent dividends; that is, it does not retain any earnings.  When the firm’s return on equity (ROE) is equal to its opportunity cost of capital. 66

  • 71. Linkages Between Share Price, Earnings And Dividends  Investors may choose between growth shares or income shares.  Growth shares are those, which offer greater opportunities for capital gains.  Dividend yield (i.e. dividend per shares as a percentage of the market price of the share) on such shares would generally be low since companies would follow a high retention policy in order to have a high growth rate.  Income shares are those that pay higher dividends, and offer low prospects for capital gains.  Those investors who want regular income would prefer to buy income shares, which pay high dividends regularly. On the other hand, if investors desire to earn higher return via capital gains, they would prefer to buy growth shares. They would like a profitable company to retain its earnings in the expectation of higher market price of the share in the future. 71

  • 77. Price-Earnings (P/E) Ratio: How Significant?  P/E ratio is calculated as the price of a share divided by earning per share.  Some people use P/E multiplier to value the shares of companies.  Alternatively, you could find the share value by dividing EPS by E/P ratio, which is the reciprocal of P/E ratio. 77

  • 79. Price-Earnings (P/E) Ratio: How Significant?  Cautions:  E/P ratio will be equal to the capitalisation rate only if the value of growth opportunities is zero.  A high P/E ratio is considered good but it could be high not because the share price is high but because the earnings per share are quite low.  The interpretation of P/E ratio becomes meaningless because of the measurement problems of EPS. 79
