Social/Ethical Question Should management be equally concerned about employees, customers, suppliers, “the public,” or just the stockholders? In enterprise economy, work for stockholders subject to constraints (environmental, fair hiring, etc.) and competition.

Could classify existing stock as founders’ shares, with voting rights but dividend restrictions. New shares might be called “Class A” shares, with voting restrictions but full dividend rights. What’s classified stock? How might classified stock be used?

12. 9 - 12 Copyright © 2001 by Harcourt, Inc.All rights reserved. Assume beta = 1.2, k RF = 7%, and k M = 12%. What is the required rate of return on the firm’s stock? k s = k RF + (k M – k RF )b Firm = 7% + (12% – 7%) (1.2) = 13%. Use the SML to calculate k s :

22. 9 - 22 Copyright © 2001 by Harcourt, Inc.All rights reserved. During nonconstant growth, D/P and capital gains yield are not constant, and capital gains yield is less than g. After t = 3, g = constant = 6% = capital gains yield; k = 13%; so D/P = 13% – 6% = 7%.

27. 9 - 27 Copyright © 2001 by Harcourt, Inc.All rights reserved. Free Cash Flow Method The free cash flow method suggests that the value of the entire firm equals the present value of the firm’s free cash flows (calculated on an after-tax basis). Recall that the free cash flow in any given year can be calculated as: NOPAT – Net capital investment.

28. 9 - 28 Copyright © 2001 by Harcourt, Inc.All rights reserved. Once the value of the firm is estimated, an estimate of the stock price can be found as follows: MV of common stock (market capitalization) = MV of firm – MV of debt and preferred stock. P = MV of common stock/# of shares. Using the Free Cash Flow Method ^

29. 9 - 29 Copyright © 2001 by Harcourt, Inc.All rights reserved. Free cash flow method is often preferred to the dividend growth model--particularly for the large number of companies that don’t pay a dividend, or for whom it is hard to forecast dividends. Issues Regarding the Free Cash Flow Method (More...)

30. 9 - 30 Copyright © 2001 by Harcourt, Inc.All rights reserved. Similar to the dividend growth model, the free cash flow method generally assumes that at some point in time, the growth rate in free cash flow will become constant. Terminal value represents the value of the firm at the point in which growth becomes constant. FCF Method Issues Continued

31. 9 - 31 Copyright © 2001 by Harcourt, Inc.All rights reserved. 416.942 FCF estimates for the next 3 years are -$5, $10, and $20 million, after which the FCF is expected to grow at 6%.

32. 9 - 32 Copyright © 2001 by Harcourt, Inc.All rights reserved. If the firm has $40 million in debt and has 10 million shares of stock, what is the price per share? Value of equity = Total value – Value of debt = $416.94 – $40 = $376.94 million. Price per share = Value of equity/# of shares = $376.94/10 = $37.69.

33. 9 - 33 Copyright © 2001 by Harcourt, Inc.All rights reserved. Analysts often use the following multiples to value stocks: P/E P/CF P/Sales P/Customer Example: Based on comparable firms, estimate the appropriate P/E. Multiply this by expected earnings to back out an estimate of the stock price. Using the Multiples of Comparable Firms to Estimate Stock Price

34. 9 - 34 Copyright © 2001 by Harcourt, Inc.All rights reserved. In equilibrium, stock prices are stable. There is no general tendency for people to buy versus to sell. In equilibrium, expected returns must equal required returns: What is market equilibrium? k s = D 1 /P 0 + g = k s = k RF + (k M – k RF )b. ^

35. 9 - 35 Copyright © 2001 by Harcourt, Inc.All rights reserved. k s = D 1 /P 0 + g = k s = k RF + (k M – k RF )b. ^ Expected returns are obtained by estimating dividends and expected capital gains (which can be found using any of the three common stock valuation approaches). Required returns are obtained from the CAPM.

36. 9 - 36 Copyright © 2001 by Harcourt, Inc.All rights reserved. How is equilibrium established? If k s = + g > k s, then P 0 is “too low” (a bargain). Buy orders > sell orders; P 0 bid up; D 1 /P 0 falls until D 1 /P 0 + g = k s = k s. ^ ^ D1P0D1P0

37. 9 - 37 Copyright © 2001 by Harcourt, Inc.All rights reserved. Why do stock prices change? 1. k i could change: k i = k RF + (k M – k RF )b i. k RF = k* + IP. 2. g could change due to economic or firm situation. P 0 = ^ D 1 k i – g

38. 9 - 38 Copyright © 2001 by Harcourt, Inc.All rights reserved. What’s the Efficient Market Hypothesis? EMH: Securities are normally in equilibrium and are “fairly priced.” One cannot “beat the market” except through good luck or better information.

39. 9 - 39 Copyright © 2001 by Harcourt, Inc.All rights reserved. 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. Evidence supports weak-form EMH, but “technical analysis” is still used.

40. 9 - 40 Copyright © 2001 by Harcourt, Inc.All rights reserved. 2.Semistrong-form EMH: All publicly available information 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.

41. 9 - 41 Copyright © 2001 by Harcourt, Inc.All rights reserved. 3.Strong-form EMH: All information, even inside information, is embedded in stock prices. Not true--insiders can gain by trading on the basis of insider information, but that’s illegal.

42. 9 - 42 Copyright © 2001 by Harcourt, Inc.All rights reserved. Markets are generally efficient because: 1.15,000 or so trained analysts; MBAs, CFAs, Technical PhDs. 2.Work for firms like Merrill, Morgan, Prudential, which have a lot of money. 3.Have similar access to data. 4.Thus, news is reflected in P 0 almost instantaneously.

43. 9 - 43 Copyright © 2001 by Harcourt, Inc.All rights reserved. Preferred Stock Hybrid security. Similar to bonds in that preferred stockholders receive a fixed dividend that must be paid before dividends can be paid on common stock. However, unlike interest payments on bonds, companies can omit dividend payments on preferred stock without fear of pushing the firm into bankruptcy.

44. 9 - 44 Copyright © 2001 by Harcourt, Inc.All rights reserved. What’s the expected return of preferred stock with V p = $50 and annual dividend = $5?
