What does they mean about dividend growth of the last 2 years given in earham co
You will know from my free lectures that the market value is based on shareholders future expectations of growth.
The value given by the dividend valuation model is assuming that shareholders are expecting the growth to be the same as it was in the past. If that is what they are expecting then the market value would be the same as that given by the dividend valuation model.
The fact that the market value is higher must mean that shareholders are expecting the growth to be higher in the future.
