(DGM).

The Dividend growth model links the value of a firm’s equity and its market cost of equity by modelling the expected future dividends receivable by the shareholders as a constantly growing perpetuity.

Its most common uses are:

(1) Estimating the market cost of equity from the current share price; and

(2) Estimating the fair value of equity from a given or assumed cost of equity.


Expressed as a formula:

Ke = D1 / P0 + g

OR (rearranging the formula)

P0 = D1 / ( Ke - g )


Where:

P0 = ex-dividend equity value today.

D1 = expected dividend at future Time 1 period.

Ke = cost of equity per period.

g = constant periodic rate of growth in dividend from Time 1 to infinity.


This is an application of the general formula for calculating the present value of a growing perpetuity.


Example 1

Calculating the market value of equity.


Where:

D1 = expected dividend at future Time 1 period = $10m.

Ke = cost of equity per period = 10%.

g = constant periodic rate of growth in dividend from Time 1 to infinity = 2%.


P0 = D1 / ( Ke - g )

= 10 / ( 0.10 - 0.02 )

= 10 / 0.08

= $125m.


Example 2

Or alternatively calculating the current market cost of equity using the rearranged formula:

Ke = D1 / P0 + g


Where:

D1 = expected dividend at future Time 1 period = $10m.

P0 = current market value of equity per period = $125m.

g = constant periodic rate of growth in dividend from Time 1 to infinity = 2%.


Ke = 10 / 125 + 2%

= 10%.


Also known as the Dividend discount model, the Dividend valuation model or the Gordon growth model.
