Types of stock market transactions Initial public offering
market (“going public”) (Company sells shares to the public for the 1st times.)
Secondary market (stockholders sell shares to each other)
by Donglin Li 9-4
Stock Market Transactions Apple Computer decides to issue additional
stock with the assistance of its investment banker. An investor purchases some of the newly issued shares. Is this a primary market transaction or a secondary market transaction?
Since new shares of stock are being issued, this is a primary market transaction.
What if instead an investor buys existing shares of Apple stock in the open market – is this a primary or secondary market transaction?
Since no new shares are created, this is a secondary market transaction.

Different approaches for valuing common stock Dividend growth model Corporate value model Using the multiples of
comparable firms
by Donglin Li 9-6
Dividend growth model Value of a stock is the present value of
the future dividends expected to be generated by the stock.

Constant growth stock A stock whose dividends are expected
to grow forever at a constant rate, g.
D1 = D0 (1+g)1
D2 = D0 (1+g)2
Dt = D0 (1+g)t If g is constant, the dividend growth
formula converges to:

What happens if g > rs? If g > rs, the constant growth
formula leads to a negative stock price, which does not make sense.
The constant growth model can only be used if: rs > g g is expected to be constant forever
by Donglin Li 9-10
If rRF = 7%, rM = 12%, and b = 1.2, what is the required rate of return on the firm’s stock? Use the SML to calculate the
required rate of return (rs):
rs = rRF + (rM – rRF)b= 7% + (12% - 7%)1.2= 13%
by Donglin Li 9-11
If D0 = $2 and g is a constant 6%, find the expected dividend stream for the next 3 years, and their PVs.

What is the expected market price of the stock, one year from now? D1 will have been paid out already.
So, P1 is the present value (as of year 1) of D2, D3, D4, etc.
Could also find expected P1 as:
$32.10 0.06 - 0.13
$2.247 g - rD Ps

$32.10 (1.06) P P 0^1
by Donglin Li 9-14
What are the expected dividend yield, capital gains yield, and total return during the first year? Dividend yield
= D1 / P0 = $2.12 / $30.29 = 7.0% Capital gains yield
= (P1 – P0) / P0 = ($32.10 - $30.29) / $30.29 = 6.0%
Total return (rs)= Dividend Yield + Capital Gains Yield= 7.0% + 6.0% = 13.0%
by Donglin Li 9-15
What would the expected price today be, if g = 0? The dividend stream would be a
perpetuity.

Supernormal growth:What if g = 30% for 3 years before achieving long-run growth of 6%? Can no longer use just the constant
growth model to find stock value. However, the growth does become
constant after 3 years.

Valuing common stock with nonconstant growth

g = 30% g = 30% g = 30% g = 6%

If the stock was expected to have negative growth (g = -6%), would anyone buy the stock, and what is its value? The firm still has earnings and pays
dividends, even though they may be declining, they still have value.

Find expected annual dividend and capital gains yields.
Capital gains yield= g = -6.00%
Dividend yield= 13.00% - (-6.00%) = 19.00%
Since the stock is experiencing constant growth, dividend yield and capital gains yield are constant. Dividend yield is sufficiently large (19%) to offset a negative capital gains.
by Donglin Li 9-20
Corporate value model Also called the free cash flow
method. Suggests the value of the entire firm equals the present value of the firm’s free cash flows.
Remember, free cash flow is the firm’s after-tax operating income less the net capital investment FCF = NOPAT – Net capital investment
by Donglin Li 9-21
Applying the corporate value model
Find the market value (MV) of the firm. Find PV of firm’s future FCFs
Subtract MV of firm’s debt and preferred stock to get MV of common stock. MV of = MV of – MV of debt and
common stock firm preferred Divide MV of common stock by the number
of shares outstanding to get intrinsic stock price (value). P0 = MV of common stock / # of shares
by Donglin Li 9-22
Issues regarding the corporate value model Often preferred to the dividend growth
model, especially when considering number of firms that don’t pay dividends or when dividends are hard to forecast.
Similar to dividend growth model, assumes at some point free cash flow will grow at a constant rate.
Terminal value (TVn) represents value of firm at the point that growth becomes constant.
by Donglin Li 9-23
Given the long-run gFCF = 6%, and WACC (weighted average cost of capital) of 10%, use the corporate value model to find the firm’s intrinsic value.
g = 6%
r = 10%

If the firm has $40 million in debt and has 10 million shares of stock, what is the firm’s intrinsic value per share? MV of equity = MV of firm – MV of debt
= $416.94m - $40m= $376.94 million
Value per share = MV of equity / # of shares
= $376.94m / 10m= $37.69
by Donglin Li 9-25
Firm multiples method Analysts often use the following
multiples to value stocks. P / E P / CF P / Sales
EXAMPLE: Based on comparable firms, estimate the appropriate P/E. Multiply this by expected earnings per share to back out an estimate of the stock price.
by Donglin Li 9-26
What is market equilibrium? In equilibrium, stock prices are stable and
there is no general tendency for people to buy versus to sell.
In equilibrium, two conditions hold: The current market stock price equals its
intrinsic value (P0 = P0). Expected returns must equal required returns.

Market equilibrium Expected returns are obtained by
estimating dividends yield and expected capital gains yield.
Required returns are obtained by estimating risk and applying the CAPM.
by Donglin Li 9-28
How is market equilibrium established? If expected return exceeds
required return … The current price (P0) is “too low”
and offers a bargain. Buy orders will be greater than sell
orders. P0 will be bid up until expected
return equals required return
by Donglin Li 9-29
Factors that affect stock price
Required return (rs) could change Changing inflation could cause rRF to
change Market risk premium or exposure to
market risk (β) could change Growth rate (g) could change
Due to economic (market) conditions Due to firm conditions

Where can you find a stock quote, and what does one look like? Stock quotes can be found in a variety of print sources
(Wall Street Journal or the local newspaper) and online sources (Yahoo!Finance, CNNMoney, or MSN MoneyCentral).

Efficient Capital Markets Stock prices are in equilibrium or are “fairly”
priced If this is true, then you should not be able to earn
“abnormal” or “excess” returns, in expectation. Efficient markets DO NOT imply that investors
cannot earn a positive return in the stock market. They do mean that, on average, you will earn a
return that is appropriate for the risk undertaken and there is not a bias in prices that can be exploited to earn excess returns.
by Donglin Li 9-33
What is the Efficient Market Hypothesis (EMH)? Securities are normally in
equilibrium and are “fairly priced.” Investors cannot “beat the
market” except through good luck or better information.
Levels of market efficiency Weak-form efficiency Semistrong-form efficiency Strong-form efficiency
by Donglin Li 9-34
Weak-form efficiency Can’t profit by looking at past price
trends. A recent decline is no reason to think stocks will go up (or down) in the future. There is no predictable price pattern based on price path.
Real world evidence supports weak-form EMH, but “technical analysis” is still used by some people.
by Donglin Li 9-35
Efficient Market Theory Technical Analysts
Forecast stock prices based on the watching the fluctuations in historical prices (thus “wiggle watcherswiggle watchers”)
by Donglin Li 9-36
Semistrong-form efficiency All publicly available information
is reflected in stock prices, so it doesn’t pay to over-analyze annual reports looking for undervalued stocks.
Largely true in real world, but superior analysts can still profit by finding and using new information

Implications of market efficiency You hear in the news that a medical
research company received FDA approval for one of its products. If the market is semi-strong efficient, can you expect to take advantage of this information by purchasing the stock? No – if the market is semi-strong efficient,
this information will already have been incorporated into the company’s stock price. So, it’s probably too late …

Go long the lowest investment
stocks.
Go short the highest investment stocks.
12 month size adjusted buy and hold hedge returns after May each year.

Strong-form efficiency All information, even inside
information, is embedded in stock prices. That is, one cannot profit even on private information.
Not true--insiders can gain by trading on the basis of insider information, but that’s illegal.
by Donglin Li 9-41
Is the stock market efficient?
Empirical studies have tried to test the three forms of efficiency. Highly efficient in the weak form. Reasonably efficient in the semistrong
form. Not efficient in the strong form. Insiders
could and did make abnormal (and sometimes illegal) profits.
by Donglin Li 9-42
What Makes Markets Efficient? There are many investors out there
doing research As new information comes to market,
this information is analyzed and trades are made based on this information
Therefore, prices should reflect all available public information, and almost instantly.
by Donglin Li 9-43
Preferred stock Hybrid security. Like bonds, preferred stockholders
receive a fixed dividend that must be paid before dividends are paid to common stockholders.
However, companies can omit preferred dividend payments without fear of pushing the firm into bankruptcy.
No voting right.
by Donglin Li 9-44
If preferred stock with an annual dividend of $5 sells for $50, what is the preferred stock’s expected return?
Vp = D / rp
$50 = $5 / rp
rp = $5 / $50 = 0.10 = 10%

2. You track the liquidity of companies and find that you can consistently earn unusually high returns by purchasing the shares of firms whose stock price falls below the cash value per share as indicated on the balance sheet. Which of the following describes this strategy?
A) This would not be a violation of market efficiency.
B) This would be a violation of weak form efficiency.
