The Traditional Approach to Valuing Levered–Growth Stocks: A Clarification

Robert A. Haugen and Prem Kumar

Journal of Financial and Quantitative Analysis, 1974, vol. 9, issue 6, 1031-1044

Abstract: The traditional valuation framework is unsuited to the task of valuing a growth stock when the capitalization rate is specified in terms of market leverage, simply because it is impossible to maintain a constant ratio of book to market leverage over the growth horizon. This severely limits the usefulness of the traditional model in analyzing the valuation problem. We have proposed a more general form of the model which allows us to show the consistency between M-M's Propositions I and II under growth.
