CHAPTER 8 (Ch. 7 in 4th edition)
The Valuation and
Characteristics of Stock
7- 2
Common Stock
 Background
Stockholders own the corporation, but in
many instances the corporation is
widely held
• Stock ownership is spread among a
large number of people
Because of this, most stockholders are
only interested in how much money
they will receive as a stockholder
• Most equity investors aren’t
interested in a role as owners
7- 3
The Return on an Investment in
Common Stock
 The future cash flows associated with stock ownership consists
of
– Dividends and
– The eventual selling price of the shares
 If you buy a share of stock for price P0, hold it for one year during
which time you receive a dividend of D1, then sell it for a price P1,
your return, k, would be:
 

D + P -P

or
P -P

k = +
P P
A capital gain (loss) occurs
if you sell the stock for a
price greater (lower) than
you paid for it.
7- 4
The Intrinsic (Calculated) Value and
Market Price
 A stock’s intrinsic value is based on
assumptions made by a potential investor
Must estimate future expected cash flows
• Need to perform a fundamental
analysis of the firm and the industry
 Different investors with different cash flow
estimates will have different intrinsic
values
7- 5
Price versus Earnings
7- 6
Developing Growth-Based Models
 Realistically most people tend to forecast growth rates rather
than cash flows
 A stock’s value today is the sum of the present values of the
dividends received while the investor holds it and the price for
which it is eventually sold

 An Infinite Stream of Dividends
Many investors buy a stock, hold for awhile, then sell, as
represented in the above equation
• However, this is not convenient for valuation purposes
7- 7
Developing Growth-Based Models
 A person who buys stock at time n will hold it
until period m and then sell it
Their valuation will look like this:
     
n + 1 m m
n m - n m - n

selling price with an infinite series of dividends

The Constant Growth Model
 If dividends are assumed to be growing at a constant rate forever
and we know the last dividend paid, D0, then the model simplifies
to:

stock that’s expected to grow at a constant,
normal rate

be earned on alternative investments of
equal risk.
ki = k* + IP + LP + MRP + DRP.
For Bonds:
For Stocks:
Ks = KRF + (KM – KRF)s

Constant Normal Growth—Example
Q: Atlas Motors is expected to grow at a constant rate of 6% a year
into the indefinite future. It recently paid a dividends of $2.25 a
share. The rate of return on stocks similar to Atlas is about 11%.
What should a share of Atlas Motors sell for today?

 We can’t use model unless (1) ks> g and
(2) g is expected to be constant forever.
•If ks< g, get negative stock price, which is
nonsense.

 g is the expected capital gains (%)
 The higher the expected growth in dividends the
faster the price is expected to grow
 Would this apply to farmland? How?
7- 16
Basis for growth expectations
 Just looking at past dividend growth is not very
informative because it can be distorted
 Growth in EPS is the fundamental driver of growth
in dividends (get data on EPS growth)
 EPS growth greater than sales growth is not
sustainable over a long period (so get data on
sales growth)
 Consider industry factors, including the general
economy, that affect growth and market share
 ROE times the retention rate is the fundamental
driver of EPS growth (get data on ROE and
retention rate)
 Also look for expert opinion

 At times a firm’s future growth may not be
expected to be constant
For example, a new product may lead to
temporary high growth
 The two-stage growth model allows us to value a
stock that is expected to grow at an unusual rate
for a limited time
Use the Gordon model to value the constant
portion

Problem 9 from lab
Frazier Inc. paid a dividend of $4 last year
(D0). The firm is expecting dividends to
grow at 21% in years 1–2 and 10% in Year
3. After that growth will be constant at
8% per year. Similar investments return
14%. Calculate the value of the stock
today.

ANS: C
D1 = 4(1.21) = 4.84
D2 = D1(1.21) = 5.8564
D3 = D2(1.10) = 6.442
D4 = D3(1.08) = 6.9574032
P3 = [D4]/(.14 – .08) = 115.95672

CFo = 0, C01 = 4.84, C02 = 5.86, C03 = 122.40; I = 14
Solve for NPV = $91.37

Q: Zylon Corporation’s stock is selling for $48 a share according to
The Wall Street Journal. We’ve heard a rumor that the firm will
make an exciting new product announcement next week. By
studying the industry, we’ve concluded that this new product will
support an overall company growth rate of 20% for about two
years. After that, we feel growth will slow rapidly and level off at
about 6%. The firm currently pays an annual dividend of $2.00,
which can be expected to grow with the company. The rate of
return on stocks like Zylon is approximately 10%. Is Zylon a
good buy at $48?
A: We’ll estimate what we think Zylon should be worth given our
expectations about growth.

of 75% recently and recently paid
dividends of $4/share. The outlook is for
continued high growth at 50% per year for

growth rate of 5% per year for all future
years.

What is market equilibrium?
In equilibrium, stock prices are stable.
There is no general tendency for
people to buy versus sell.
In equilibrium, expected returns must
equal required returns:

How is equilibrium established?
If k = (D1/ P0) + g > k, then
P0 is “too low,” a bargain.
Buy orders > sell orders;
P0 bid up; D1/P0 falls until
D1/P0 + g = k = k.

Securities Analysis
 Securities analysis is the art and science of
selecting investments
 Fundamental analysis looks at a company and its
business to forecast value
 Technical analysis bases value on the pattern of
past prices and volumes
 The Efficient Market Hypothesis says information
moves so rapidly in financial markets that price
changes occur immediately, so it is impossible to
consistently beat the market to bargains
7- 43
What’s the Efficient
Market Hypothesis?
EMH: Securities are normally
in equilibrium and are “fairly
priced,” given what is currently
known. One cannot “beat
the market” except through
good luck or inside info.
7- 44
1. Weak-form EMH:
Can’t profit by looking at
past trends. A recent decline
is no reason to think stocks
will go up (or down) in the
future. Seems empirically
true, but “technical analysis”
is still used.
7- 45
2. Semi-strong form EMH:
All publicly available info. is
reflected in stock prices, so
doesn’t pay to pore over
annual reports looking for
undervalued stocks. Largely
true, but superior analysts
can still profit by finding and
using new information.
It is VERY hard to tell good luck from
superior stock picking/timing ability.
7- 46
All information, even inside
info, is embedded in stock
prices. Not true--insiders
can gain by trading on the
basis of insider information,
but that’s illegal.
3. Strong-form EMH:
7- 47
Markets are efficient because:
1. 15,000 or so trained analysts; MBAs,
CFAs, Technical PhDs.
2. Work for firms like Merrill, Morgan,
Prudential, which have much money.
3. Have similar access to data.
4. Thus, news is reflected in P0 almost
instantaneously.

By studying the industry, we’ve concluded that this new product will support an overall company growth rate of 20% for about two years. After that, we feel growth will slow rapidly and level off at about 6%. The firm currently pays an annual dividend of $2.00, which can be expected to grow with the company. The rate of return on stocks like Zylon is approximately 10%. Is Zylon a good buy at $48? A: We’ll estimate what we think Zylon should be worth given our expectations about growth.

  • 44. 7- 44 1. Weak-form EMH: Can’t profit by looking at past trends. A recent decline is no reason to think stocks will go up (or down) in the future. Seems empirically true, but “technical analysis” is still used.
