12. 17-12 Basic Types of Models Balance Sheet Models Dividend Discount Models Price/Earning Ratios Estimating growth rates and opportunities Intrinsic Value Self assigned value or estimate derived from a variety of models Market Price Consensus value of all potential traders Trading Signal IV > MP Buy IV < MP Sell or Short Sell IV = MP Hold or Fairly Priced Models of Equity Valuation

13. 17-13 V 0 = Value of Stock D t = Dividend k = required return Dividend Discount Models: General Model

14. 17-14 Stocks with earnings & dividends expected to be constant (often preferred stock) E 1 = D 1 = $5.00 k =.15 V 0 = $5.00 /.15 = $33.33 No Growth Model

15. 17-15 g = constant perpetual growth rate E 1 = $5.00b = 40% k = 15% (1-b) = 60%D 1 = $3.00 g = 8% V 0 = 3.00 / (.15 -.08) = $42.86 Constant Growth Model

16. 17-16 g = growth rate in dividends ROE = Return on Equity for the firm b = plowback or retention percentage rate (1- dividend payout percentage rate) Estimating Dividend Growth Rates

17. 17-17 P N = the expected sales price for the stock at time N N = the specified number of years the stock is expected to be held Specified Holding Period Model

18. 17-18 PVGO = Present Value of Growth Opportunities E 1 = Earnings Per Share for period 1 Growth & No Growth Components of Value

19. 17-19 ROE = 20% d = 60% b = 40% E 1 = $5.00 D 1 = $3.00 k = 15% g =.20 x.40 =.08 or 8% Partitioning Value: Example

20. 17-20 V o = value with growth NGV o = no growth component value PVGO = Present Value of Growth Opportunities Partitioning Value: Example

21. 17-21 P/E Ratios are a function of two factors Required Rates of Return (k) Expected growth in Dividends Uses Relative valuation Extensive Use in industry Price Earnings Ratios

22. 17-22 E 1 - expected earnings for next year E 1 is equal to D 1 under no growth k - required rate of return P/E Ratio: No Expected Growth

23. 17-23 b = retention ratio ROE = Return on Equity P/E Ratio with Constant Growth

24. 17-24 E 0 = $2.50 g = 0 k = 12.5% P 0 = D/k = $2.50/.125 = $20.00 PE = 1/k = 1/.125 = 8 Numerical Example: No Growth

25. 17-25 b = 60% ROE = 15% (1-b) = 40% E 1 = $2.50 (1 + (.6)(.15)) = $2.73 D 1 = $2.73 (1-.6) = $1.09 k = 12.5% g = 9% P 0 = 1.09/(.125-.09) = $31.14 PE = 31.14/2.73 = 11.4 PE = (1 -.60) / (.125 -.09) = 11.4 Numerical Example with Growth

26. 17-26 Pitfalls in P/E Analysis Use of accounting earnings Historical costs May not reflect economic earnings Reported earnings fluctuate around the business cycle.

27. 17-27 Other Valuation Ratios Price-to-Book Price-to-Cash Flow Price-to-Sales

28. 17-28 Inflation and Equity Valuation Inflation has an impact on equity valuations. Historical costs underestimate economic costs. Empirical research shows that inflation has an adverse effect on equity values. Research shows that real rates of return are lower with high rates of inflation.

29. 17-29 Lower Equity Values with Inflation Shocks cause expectation of lower earnings by market participants. Returns are viewed as being riskier with higher rates of inflation. Real dividends are lower because of taxes.
