QUESTION 1 (63 marks) Hello Goodbye Ltd.(HG) is a mobile network provider listed in the telecommunication section of the Johannesburg Stock Exchange (JSE). HG is currently planning on expanding the entitys network infrastructures. This will however require HG to obtain funding worth R26 million. The following potential financial instruments have been identified for future evaluation: Ordinary shares HG can issue 400 000 ordinary shares. HG has a beta of 1.08 and the entity is currently growing at a rate of 9.7% per annum. This growth is however expected to decrease by 6.2% after 4 years. At that point in time, the growth rate at the time will proceed into the foreseeable future. The average yield in the telecommunication market is 12.3%. South African 10Y government bonds, which are 10-year bonds, offer a 10.12% rate of return per annum. HG will pay a dividend of R7.70 per share at the beginning of the third year after the ordinary shares have been issued. The entity will proceed with these payments at the beginning of each year thereafter and only move the dividends payment to the end of each year when the sixth year after issuing the shares, dividend is to be paid. All dividends will however be kept in line with the entitys prevailing growth rate. Cumulative redeemable preference shares Another financing alternative is to issue 11.84% cumulative preference shares that will be redeemed by HG after 5 years. Preference shares with similar terms in the telecommunication sector are offering a return of 11.92% per annum. The dividends on these preference shares will be payable quarterly in advance. The dividends of the first 2 years will however not be paid and their payment will only occur when the dividend thereafter is scheduled for payment. From this point in time the preference shareholders will receive their dividends regularly. These preferences shares will be given a face value of R30 each.
