- Ma3. For the valuation of the HZ stock, the following forecast is considered the most reasonable: the company will keep up the current 20% annual growth of its dividends for two more years, and then the company will stabilized to a long-run dividend growth rate of 5% for the foreseeable future. You know that the last dividend paid on the stock is $2 per share. a. What will be your estimate of its stock value if the required return on the stock is 12%? b.

In practice, a common way to value a share of stock when a company pays dividends is to value the dividends over the next five years or so, then find the “terminal” stock price using a benchmark PE ratio. Suppose a company just paid a dividend of $1.41. The dividends are expected to grow at 13 percent over the next five years. In five years, the estimated payout ratio will be 30 percent and a benchmark PE will be 19. The required return is 11 percent. a) What is the target stock price in five years? b) What is the stock price today?arrow_forwardSupernormal Growth (LO1) Duffs Co. is growing quickly.

Assuming the plowback ratio and the ROE are expected to remain constant forever: Suppose that you are confident that 10% is the required rate of return on the stock.
