Many companies pay a regular cash dividend.Public companies often pay quarterly.Sometimes firms will pay an extra cash dividend.The extreme case would be a liquidating dividend.Companies will often declare stock dividends.No cash leaves the firm.The firm increases the number of shares outstanding.

In-Class Exercise
Ross, Westerfield, and Jaffe Question 1 (pp. 543)Lee Ann has declared a $6 per share cash dividend. Suppose that the capital gains are not taxed, but dividends are taxed at 15% for the representative investor. Lee Ann sells for $90 per share, what do you think the ex-equilibrium dividend price will be?Ans: Aftertax dividend = $6.00(1 .15) = $5.10. The stock price should drop by the aftertax dividend amount, or:Ex-dividend price = $90 5.10 = $84.90

Repurchase of Stock ( or )
Instead of declaring cash dividends, firms can rid themselves of excess cash through buying shares of their own stock.Recently, share repurchase has become an important way of distributing earnings to shareholders.

In-Class Exercise
Ross, Westerfield, and Jaffe Question 17 (pp. 545)
Lee Ann is considering a cash dividend versus s stock repurchase. In either case 5,000 would be spent. Current EPS is 0.95 per share and the stock price is 40 per share. There are 1,000 shares outstanding. Ignore taxes1. Evaluate the two alternatives on shareholder wealth2. What will be the effect on Lee Anns EPS and PE ratio under these two different alternatives?

Corporate Finance Lecture Note 2

In-Class Exercise
1. Dividend per share = 5,000/1,000 shares = 5.00. The ex-dividend stock price will be: 40 5 = 35 per share. Shares repurchased = 5,000/40 = 125 shares
2. If the company pays dividends, the current EPS is 0.95, and the P/E ratio is: P/E = 35/0.95 = 36.84. If the company repurchases stock, we find the EPS under the repurchase is: EPS = 0.95(1,000)/(1,000 125) = 1.0857. The stock price will remain at 40 per share, so the P/E ratio is:P/E = 40/1.0857 = 36.84

Stock Splits
Stock splits essentially the same as a stock dividend except it is expressed as a ratioFor example, a 2 for 1 stock split is the same as a 100% stock dividend.Stock price is reduced when the stock splits.Common explanation for split is to return price to a more desirable trading range.

Ross, Westerfield, and Jaffe Question 3 (pp. 543)
Lee Anns stock is sold at $25 per share and it declares a four-for-one stock split. There are 10,000 shares outstanding. How many shares are outstanding now? and if it declares a one-for-four reverse stock split. How many shares are outstanding now? Ans: four-for-one stock split, New shares outstanding = 10,000(4/1) = 40,000. one-for-four reverse stock split, New shares outstanding = 10,000(1/4) = 2,500.

Dividend Policy
Corporate Finance Lecture Note 2

Corporate Finance Lecture Note 2

What is dividend policy?
Its the decision to pay out earnings versus retaining and reinvesting them. Includes these elements:
1. High or low payout?
2. Stable or irregular dividends?
3. How frequent?
4. Do we announce the policy?

Dividend Irrelevance Theory
dividend policy is irrelevant in the sense that it cannot affect shareholder value Investors are indifferent between dividends and retention-generated capital gains. If they want cash, they can sell stock. If they dont want cash, they can use dividends to buy stock.Modigliani-Miller support irrelevance.Theory is based on no taxes or brokerage costs, hence may not be true

The Irrelevance of Dividend Policy
A compelling case can be made that dividend policy is irrelevant in the sense that it cannot affect shareholder value.Since investors do not need dividends to convert shares to cash; they will not pay higher prices for firms with higher dividends.In other words, dividend policy will have no impact on the value of the firm because investors can create whatever income stream they prefer by using homemade dividends.

Dividend Policy is Irrelevant
In the above example, Bob Investor began with a total wealth of $3,360:
After a $3 dividend, his total wealth is still $3,360:
After a $2 dividend and sale of 2 ex-dividend shares, his total wealth is still $3,360:

Dividends and Investment Policy
Firms should never forgo positive NPV projects to increase a dividend (or to pay a dividend for the first time).Recall that one of the assumptions underlying the dividend-irrelevance argument is: The investment policy of the firm is set ahead of time and is not altered by changes in dividend policy.

Tax Preference Theory

Corporate Finance Lecture Note 2

Personal Taxes and Dividends
To get the result that dividend policy is irrelevant, we needed three assumptions:No taxesNo transactions costsNo uncertaintyIn the United States, both cash dividends and capital gains are taxed at a maximum rate of 15 percent.Since capital gains can be deferred, the tax rate on dividends is greater than the effective rate on capital gains.This could cause investors to prefer firms with low cash dividends.

Firms without Sufficient Cash
In a world of personal taxes, firms should not issue stock to pay a dividend.

The direct costs of stock issuance will add to this effect.

Firms with Sufficient Cash
The above argument does not necessarily apply to firms with excess cash.Consider a firm that has $1 million in cash after selecting all available positive NPV projects.Select additional capital budgeting projects (by assumption, these are negative NPV).Acquire other companiesPurchase financial assetsRepurchase shares

Taxes and Dividends
In the presence of personal taxes:
A firm should not issue stock to pay a dividend.
Managers have an incentive to seek alternative uses for funds to reduce dividends.
Though personal taxes mitigate against the payment of dividends, these taxes are not sufficient to lead firms to eliminate all dividends.

Behavioral Finance-Dividends
A natural rule people might create to prevent themselves from over consuming their wealth is only consume the dividend, but dont touch the portfolio capital. In other words, people may like dividends because dividends help them surmount self-control problems through the creation of simple rules.

Which theory is most correct?
Empirical testing has not been able to determine which theory, if any, is correct.Thus, managers use judgment when setting policy.Analysis is used, but it must be applied with judgment.

The Clientele Effect

Corporate Finance Lecture Note 2

The Clientele Effect
Clienteles for various dividend payout policies are likely to form in the following way:
Group
Stock Type
High Tax Bracket Individuals
Low Tax Bracket Individuals
Tax-Free Institutions
Corporations
Zero-to-Low payout
Low-to-Medium payout
Medium payout
High payout
Once the clienteles have been satisfied, a corporation is unlikely to create value by changing its dividend policy.

Whats the clientele effect?
Different groups of investors, or clienteles, prefer different dividend policies.Firms past dividend policy determines its current clientele of investors.Clientele effects impede changing dividend policy. Taxes & brokerage costs hurt investors who have to switch companies.

What We Know and Do Not Know
Corporations smooth dividends.Fewer companies are paying dividends.Dividends provide information to the market.Firms should follow a sensible policy:Do not forgo positive NPV projects just to pay a dividend.Avoid issuing stock to pay dividends.Consider share repurchase when there are few better uses for the cash.

The Dividend Decision: Lintners Stylized Facts
1. Firms have longer term target dividend payout ratios.
2. Managers focus more on dividend changes than on absolute levels.
3. Dividends changes follow shifts in long-run, sustainable levels of earnings rather than short-run changes in earnings.
4. Managers are reluctant to make dividend changes that might have to be reversed.
5. Firms repurchase stock when they have accumulated a large amount of unwanted cash or wish to change their capital structure by replacing equity with debt.
