2022 Calculations

1 Retention rate = (Net income attributable to Broadcom Inc. stockholders – Dividends to common stockholders – Dividends to preferred stockholders) ÷ (Net income attributable to Broadcom Inc. stockholders – Dividends to preferred stockholders)
= (11,4956,733272) ÷ (11,495272)
= 0.40

2 Profit margin = 100 × (Net income attributable to Broadcom Inc. stockholders – Dividends to preferred stockholders) ÷ Net revenue
= 100 × (11,495272) ÷ 33,203
= 33.80%

3 Asset turnover = Net revenue ÷ Total assets
= 33,203 ÷ 73,249
= 0.45

4 Financial leverage = Total assets ÷ Total Broadcom Inc. stockholders’ equity
= 73,249 ÷ 22,709
= 3.23

5 g = Retention rate × Profit margin × Asset turnover × Financial leverage
= -0.05 × 24.79% × 0.37 × 2.96
= -1.22%


FCFE growth rate (g) implied by single-stage model

g = 100 × (Equity market value0 × r – FCFE0) ÷ (Equity market value0 + FCFE0)
= 100 × (331,882 × 14.67%15,886) ÷ (331,882 + 15,886)
= 9.43%

where:
Equity market value0 = current market value of Broadcom Inc. common stock (US$ in millions)
FCFE0 = the last year Broadcom Inc. free cash flow to equity (US$ in millions)
r = required rate of return on Broadcom Inc. common stock

1 g1 -1.22%
2 g2 1.44%
3 g3 4.11%
4 g4 6.77%
5 and thereafter g5 9.43%

where:
g1 is implied by PRAT model
g5 is implied by single-stage model
g2, g3 and g4 are calculated using linear interpoltion between g1 and g5

Calculations

g2 = g1 + (g5g1) × (2 – 1) ÷ (5 – 1)
= -1.22% + (9.43%-1.22%) × (2 – 1) ÷ (5 – 1)
= 1.44%

g3 = g1 + (g5g1) × (3 – 1) ÷ (5 – 1)
= -1.22% + (9.43%-1.22%) × (3 – 1) ÷ (5 – 1)
= 4.11%

g4 = g1 + (g5g1) × (4 – 1) ÷ (5 – 1)
= -1.22% + (9.43%-1.22%) × (4 – 1) ÷ (5 – 1)
= 6.77%
