Dividend Discount Models
Valuation: 중앙대학교 경영학부 박창헌 교수
One-Period DDM
• One-Period Dividend Discount Model
The value today of a share of stock is the present value of the
expected dividend in Year 1, plus the present value of the
expected price in Year 1.

Two-Period DDM
• Two-Period Dividend Discount Model
The value today of a share of stock is the present value of the
expected dividends in Years 1 and 2, plus the present value of
the expected price in Year 2.

Multi-Period DDM
• Multi-Period Dividend Discount Model
The value today of a share of stock is the present value of the
expected dividends in Years 1 through n, plus the present value
of the expected price in Year n (the terminal value).

Warm-Up: The General Dividend Discount Model
If we extend the holding period indefinitely, the value of a share of stock
simply becomes the present value of an infinite stream of dividends,
represented by John Burr Williams's original DDM formula:

The Gordon Growth Model
The Gordon growth model (GGM) assumes that dividends
increase at a constant rate indefinitely.

The Present Value of Growth Opportunities
The value of a firm’s equity has two components:
the value of its assets in place and the value of growth opportunities

Limitations of the Gordon Growth Model
There are also some characteristics that limit the applications of
the GGM:

Limitation of the Gordon Growth Model
Consider a stock with an expected dividend per share next period of $2.50, a cost of
equity of 15%, and an expected growth rate of 5% forever. Then the value of the stock is:
Value = $2.50/(0.15-0.05) = $25. Look at the sensitivity to estimates of the growth rate.

Valuation Using the Two-Stage DDM
The two-stage fixed growth rate model is based on the assumption
that the firm will enjoy an initial period of high growth, followed by
a mature or stable period in which growth will be lower but
sustainable:
(N.B., r is assumed to be the same for both periods.)
