Limitations of Dividend growth model

ANAnuja Nair9y ago
Hi sir, i just wanna check if my understanding is correct on the limitations of dividend growth model . The model assumes that shareholders value firms based on -the amount of future dividends that a company pays & - the rate of growth of dividends right ? Therefore, the value of the firm can become questionable if the company either stops paying or reduces its dividend payment right ?

The market value is based on shareholders expectations of future dividends. If anything happens to change their expectations (such as reducing the dividend) then the share price will change.
