2022 Calculations

1 Retention rate = (Net income – Dividends and dividend equivalents declared) ÷ Net income
= (437,672146,148) ÷ 437,672
= 0.67

2 Profit margin = 100 × Net income ÷ Revenue
= 100 × 437,672 ÷ 1,794,148
= 24.39%

3 Asset turnover = Revenue ÷ Total assets
= 1,794,148 ÷ 2,058,885
= 0.87

4 Financial leverage = Total assets ÷ Stockholders’ equity
= 2,058,885 ÷ 1,668,602
= 1.23

5 g = Retention rate × Profit margin × Asset turnover × Financial leverage
= 0.48 × 19.86% × 0.74 × 1.25
= 8.89%


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

g = 100 × (Equity market value0 × r – FCFE0) ÷ (Equity market value0 + FCFE0)
= 100 × (19,503,657 × 14.94%187,831) ÷ (19,503,657 + 187,831)
= 13.84%

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

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)
= 8.89% + (13.84%8.89%) × (2 – 1) ÷ (5 – 1)
= 10.13%

g3 = g1 + (g5g1) × (3 – 1) ÷ (5 – 1)
= 8.89% + (13.84%8.89%) × (3 – 1) ÷ (5 – 1)
= 11.36%

g4 = g1 + (g5g1) × (4 – 1) ÷ (5 – 1)
= 8.89% + (13.84%8.89%) × (4 – 1) ÷ (5 – 1)
= 12.60%
