Ramon plc is expected to produce earnings next year of £6m. It is expected to invest 70 per cent of its earnings next year to obtain a rate of return of 40 per cent. Over the next three years it is expected to invest 45, 30, and 25 per cent of eanings respectively.In the longer term the company is expected to invest 25 per cent of earnings per annum. The rate of return in years two and three are anticipated to be 30 and 20 per cent respectively. From year four onwards the company is not expected to produce a rate of return more than 10 per cent - the minimum rate of return acceptable to shareholders. Change the values to experiment.
The valuation model developed below differentiates between an intial period of non-sustainable growth and the longer te when it is assumed that the growth rate is slower but sustainable. It is assumed that the period of rapid growth lasts for f years or less, but the model is easily ammended to incorporate longer periods of non-sustainable growth. Enter the valu for the expected earnings for next year, the retention ratios for the next five years, the rates of return on the investments financed by the retentions, and the required rate of return i.e. the discount rate. The functioning of the model is illustrate using the example of the valuation of Ramon plc. To use the model replace the values in the initial table for those of Ram plc.
