Valuation of Bonds and Stock

First Principles:Value of financial securities = PV of expected future cash flows

To value bonds and stocks we need to: Estimate future cash flows:

Size (how much) and Timing (when)

Discount future cash flows at an appropriate rate:The rate should be appropriate to the risk presented by the security.

5.1 Definition and Exampleof a Bond

A bond is a legally binding agreement between a borrower and a lender:

Specifies the principal amount of the loan.

Specifies the size and timing of the cash flows:In dollar terms (fixed-rate borrowing)

As a formula (adjustable-rate borrowing)

5.1 Definition and Exampleof a Bond

Consider a U.S. government bond listed as 6 3/8 of December 2009.

The Par Value of the bond is $1,000.

Coupon payments are made semi-annually (June 30 and December 31 for this particular bond).

Since the coupon rate is 6 3/8 the payment is $31.875.

On January 1, 2005 the size and timing of cash flows are:

5.2 How to Value Bonds

Identify the size and timing of cash flows.

Discount at the correct discount rate.If you know the price of a bond and the size and timing of cash flows, the yield to maturity is the discount rate.

5.3 Bond Concepts1. Bond prices and market interest rates move in opposite

directions.

2. When coupon rate = YTM, price = par value.When coupon rate > YTM, price > par value (premium bond)When coupon rate < YTM, price < par value (discount bond)

3. A bond with longer maturity has higher relative (%) price change than one with shorter maturity when interest rate (YTM) changes. All other features are identical.

4. A lower coupon bond has a higher relative price change than a higher coupon bond when YTM changes. All other features are identical.

YTM and Bond Value

When the YTM < coupon, the bond trades at a premium.

When the YTM = coupon, the bond trades at par.

When the YTM > coupon, the bond trades at a discount.

5.6 Growth Opportunities

Growth opportunities are opportunities to invest in positive NPV projects.

The value of a firm can be conceptualized as the sum of the value of a firm that pays out 100-percent of its earnings as dividends and the net present value of the growth opportunities.

The Dividend Growth Model and the NPVGO Model

Consider a firm that has EPS of $5 at the end of the first year, a dividend-payout ratio of 30%, a discount rate of 16-percent, and a return on retained earnings of 20-percent.The dividend at year one will be $5 × .30 = $1.50 per share.

The retention ratio is .70 ( = 1 -.30) implying a growth rate in dividends of 14% = .70 × 20%

From the dividend growth model, the price of a share is:

Gap Incorporated is having a tough year, trading near their 52-week low. Imagine how you would feel if within the past year you had paid $52.75 for a share of Gap and now had a share worth $19.25! That 9-cent dividend wouldn’t go very far in making amends.

Yesterday, Gap had another rough day in a rough year. Gap “opened the day down” beginning trading at $20.50, which was down from the previous close of $21.00 = $19.25 + $1.75

Looks like cargo pants aren’t the only things on sale at Gap.
