2023 Calculations

1 Retention rate = (Net income (loss) attributable to common stockholders – Dividends declared) ÷ Net income (loss) attributable to common stockholders
= (4,894 – 3,299) ÷ 4,894
= 0.33

2 Profit margin = 100 × Net income (loss) attributable to common stockholders ÷ Revenue from contracts with purchasers
= 100 × 4,894 ÷ 19,374
= 25.26%

3 Asset turnover = Revenue from contracts with purchasers ÷ Total assets
= 19,374 ÷ 36,613
= 0.53

4 Financial leverage = Total assets ÷ Equity
= 36,613 ÷ 23,171
= 1.58

5 g = Retention rate × Profit margin × Asset turnover × Financial leverage
= 0.37 × 14.85% × 0.51 × 1.60
= 4.58%

Dividend growth rate (g) implied by Gordon growth model

g = 100 × (P0 × r – D0) ÷ (P0 + D0)
= 100 × ($233.92 × 16.32% – $13.96) ÷ ($233.92 + $13.96)
= 9.77%

where:
P0 = current price of share of Pioneer Natural Resources Co. common stock
D0 = the last year dividends per share of Pioneer Natural Resources Co. common stock
r = required rate of return on Pioneer Natural Resources Co. common stock

1 g1 4.58%
2 g2 5.88%
3 g3 7.17%
4 g4 8.47%
5 and thereafter g5 9.77%

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

Calculations

g2 = g1 + (g5 – g1) × (2 – 1) ÷ (5 – 1)
= 4.58% + (9.77% – 4.58%) × (2 – 1) ÷ (5 – 1)
= 5.88%

g3 = g1 + (g5 – g1) × (3 – 1) ÷ (5 – 1)
= 4.58% + (9.77% – 4.58%) × (3 – 1) ÷ (5 – 1)
= 7.17%

g4 = g1 + (g5 – g1) × (4 – 1) ÷ (5 – 1)
= 4.58% + (9.77% – 4.58%) × (4 – 1) ÷ (5 – 1)
= 8.47%
