You are interested in determining the intrinsic value of Hoffman Inc. Your analysis shows that the firm’s growth rate will drop from its current pace by 20% each of the next two years, and then you estimate that dividends will continue to grow at the year 2 rate, with the same dividend policy in place, indefinitely. Lastly, your estimate of the required return on the firm’s equity is 12%. Hoffman’s recently published annual report shows the following financial relationships: Assets = 1.4 x Equity Current Assets = 1.7 x Current Liabilities Sales = 1.5 x Assets Net Income = 8% x Sales Dividends = 30% x Net Income Earnings per share (Basic) = $0.80 per share Required: Use the multi-period DDM to estimate the intrinsic value of the company’s stock now, at the beginning of year 1.
