FINS1613 Lecture Notes - Lecture 3: Dividend Discount Model, Risk Premium, Preferred Stock
Chapter 7: Share Valuation: The Dividend-Discount Model
- Valuation principle: price of a security should equal PV of expected cash flows an
investor will receive from owning it
- EQUITY: Ordinary share: share of ownership in co, which confers rights to any
ordinary dividends as well as rights to vote on elections of directors, mergers and
other maj events
- Preference share: shares w preference over ordinary shares in paym of dividends
and in liquidation (cumulative pref shares: any unpaid dividends are carried forward,
ouulatie: issed diideds do’t auulate
o Like a pepetual od: poised CF + oseuees if ot paid ut a’t
force bankruptcy- pref dividend obligations)
- Payout: bond, pref share, ordinary share
Equity cost of Capital
- Security sold by corporations to raise money from investors today in exchange for
expected fut paym- receive dividend paym (not guaranteed- ordinary and preference
shares)
- Dividend and capital gains (r(E) is equity cost of capital)
- Expected total return of the share should equal the expected return of other
investments available in the market with equivalent systematic risk
Risk premium-
- Systematic risk: risk that must be taken if buying stock (eco cycle)- requires risk
premium
- Idiosyncratic risk: endemic to particular stock (not whole investm portfolio) – not
rewarded for this risk quod can get rid of it
- Risk premium relates to equity risk (systematic risk) + expected return is derived
from cash expected return ie expected return – cash return = risk premium
Valuing equity- dividend discount model
- P = dividends + final share price ÷ (1+r)
-
- model that values shares of a firm according to the PV of the future dividends

- price of a share = PV of all expected fut dividends it will pay
- Terminal price: final price of a stock used in dividend discount model
Constant Dividend Growth
- Valuing share by viewing its dividends as a constant growth perp: P(0) = Div(1)/ r(E) -
g
Dividends versus investment and growth
Div(t)= earnings(t)/shares outstanding(t) (EPS(t)) * dividend payout rate(t)
- Dividend payout rate- fraction of firm earnings that the firm pays out as dividends
each year
- To increase dividend if constant rate:
o increase earnings (net profit)
▪ change in earnings= new investm * return on new
▪ new investm= earnings*retention rate (fraction that retains for new
investm)
▪ earnings growth rate= change in earnings/earnings= retention*return
on new
▪ g= retention * return
o increase dividend payout rate
▪ ut the fi’s diided to iease iest ill eate alue ad aise
the share price only if new investm generate return > cost of capital
▪ dividend payout rate + retention rate = 1
o decrease # shares outstanding
- earnings per share (EPS) measures firm profitability- total earnings normalised by #
of shares outstanding
- return on new investm: measures ability of a firm to turn investm into earnings (ratio
of new earnings to new investm)
