hello everyone hi welcome to the channel of WallStreetmojo watch the video
[15]
till the end also if you are new to this channel then you can subscribe us by
[19]
clicking the bell icon friends I welcome to you to the tutorial of preferences
[24]
and there's a question debt or equity so let's get into the nitty-gritty what
[32]
exactly are we talking about here see at the very first and the initial state at
[37]
the edge at the inception what are preferred shares or or classes of shares
[44]
one are known as the common shares which we call as equity shares and the another
[51]
one are called preferential or the preferred share capital right the common
[56]
or the equity share holder represents the ownership in the company the holder
[60]
of the company's share may or may not be entitled to dividend depending upon the
[65]
profitability of the company on the other hand if we talk about the
[69]
preference share holders and that is the preferred share they are entitled to
[73]
fixed dividend this is very important they are entitled to fixed dividend
[78]
irrespective the profitability of the company so dividends that have been
[82]
received on the preferred stock are known as preferred dividends okay so in
[89]
this tutorial we are going to discuss a number of things regarding preferential
[92]
capital and preferred shares so let's get into the details first what are
[101]
preferences or preferred shares it can be either of the to see accompany issues
[108]
as I told you two types equity and preferred equity has the ownership in
[114]
the company and the preferred shareholders they are entitled Oh
[118]
dividend right you know they are known as preferred because you know in case a
[125]
company is unable to pay all the dividends it can claim to preferred
[132]
dividends and will take precedence over the claim to the dividends paid on
[135]
equity shareholders there is a company called Diana shipping let me show you
[141]
some details regarding the same now there's this company called Diana
[145]
shipping Inc we went through the company's detailed online and we on
[151]
their website and we found this details like dividend amount per share right
[157]
from all the dates from 2014 to 2016 all the dividends that have been paid
[163]
so first preferred share dividend calculation which is very important so
[170]
let's understand this calculation of preferred dividend with the help of an
[173]
illustration let me get to the excel to make you understand know let's say mr. X
[180]
he owns 20000 okay and 10% of the preferred shares were
[187]
issued at a par value okay I'll just say 10% of the preferred share or
[194]
provincial capital of which were been issued at the par value of $50
[199]
so this was basically the price okay now currently the stock sorry no this is not
[206]
the price this is the price at which it has been issued and these the current
[213]
market price that a CMP is $60 but there's
[218]
a difference so let's do some preference dividend calculation over here this is
[221]
our example see the dividend per share of preferred share will be is equal to
[228]
that at the amount at which it has been issued into 10% as you can see
[234]
10% of the preference share right so that would be how much $5
[238]
because we have mentioned over here just let me write 50 so automatically we will
[242]
get answer as 5 so $5 so the total preference dividend is going to be
[246]
we had 10 shares right into 50 that is the price at which it has been
[254]
issued into 6.5% that will give us 32.500
[261]
see for calculation the preferred dividend multiply the par
[265]
value multiplied the par of the issue value of the preferred shares by the
[270]
dividend percentage dividend percentage is stated in the
[275]
Prospectus of the preferred shares alternatively you know the percentage is
[278]
also stated in the share certificate issued by the company now let's learn
[283]
the next thing that I want to take you to the yield calculation the preferred
[289]
dividend yield calculation see the dividend yield ratio is nothing but the
[295]
price the the amount of the dividend that is 5 divided by the current market
[303]
price just change it to 60 and we get the detail as 8.33 in terms of
[310]
percentage or 8 so yield is effective interest rate and that a person receives
[316]
if he holds the shares of 1 year the formula of dividend yield is quite
[323]
simple you know the dividend yield that is dy is equal to the dividend per share
[329]
that has dps divided by the market price per share and you multiply the whole
[336]
into 100 now there are top 6 types of preferred dividends so let's get into
[344]
each and every detail first there is the first one that is called as cumulative
[350]
preference shares see in case of the cumulative preference shares the
[355]
preferred dividend always gets accumulated for the subsequent years and
[358]
such type of preferred shares includes provisions wherein company is required
[363]
to pay all the difference okay there is second one which is known as the
[369]
opposite of the same that is non-cumulative preference shares see in
[376]
case of the non cumulative preference shares there are no legal obligations on
[380]
the company to pay the past accumulated dividends if a company does not pay
[384]
dividends on account of the business exigency or otherwise shareholders have
[388]
no right to claim unpaid dividend in the future
[391]
the third one is basically the convertible the convertible preferences
[400]
see this type of shares over here I can just say this type of shares
[405]
gives it holders a legal right but not an obligation to exchange for pre-
[409]
determine numbers of companies equity or common stock conversion may occur at a
[413]
predetermined time or at any time the investor chooses so conversion occurs at
[418]
an exercise price which is always determined a predetermined price this
[424]
type of preferential towards its holder to participate in the equity shares by
[429]
the way of conversion forth is basically the participating preferences see in
[438]
this case it provides the shareholders in opportunity to receive additional
[444]
dividends apart from the normal regular dividends additional dividends you can
[448]
say are paid by the company on achieving certain predetermined milestones like
[454]
you know you can say over here hurdles hurdles is a very good way of signifying
[461]
this particular case so the net profit as you know the the
[467]
benchmark is going to be something sort of like you know the hurdles will be
[470]
like the revenue or your net profit of the company and so on and so forth so
[475]
the shareholder continued to receive that regular dividends regardless of the
[479]
company achieving predetermined milestones or not the 5th type that is
[484]
known as perpetual preference shares in case of the perpetual preference shares
[491]
this type of preferences do not have any maturity period in case of the perpetual
[498]
preferences initial invested capital is never returned to the shareholders
[502]
shareholders they continue to receive preference dividend for in finite period
[507]
over here as the name itself over here suggests perpetual right so most of the
[514]
preferred shares fall into this particular category
[519]
now 6th one that we need to discuss is the prior preference shares see
[529]
companies generally issue more than one type of preferences that is they may
[534]
show convertible or like non-convertible that is the opposite of the same or
[540]
participating or non-participating etc etc see any preferred
[546]
shares which is designated as a prior preferred stock by the company will have
[551]
you can say a prior claim on the dividend over the types of the
[555]
preference talk therefore you know it can be seen that you know the prior
[558]
preferably have less credit risk than the other preferred stocks let's
[563]
understand this with a very simple illustrations so illustration there is
[568]
let's say that is company called X Inc okay it is some following details let me
[574]
mention some of the same it has a 6% series of X Perpetual preferences shares
[581]
okay which is close enough to let's say 5 million everything will be over here
[588]
in millions a 6% preference shares of C is X
[592]
I'll just write over here as this will be your series now there is another
[597]
series that is Z which is prior preferred share and it is also again 6%
[606]
and the value is again over here 5 million the available cash that they
[612]
have is let's say 3,00,000 so in the above case the dividend will be paid
[618]
like as follows you know dividend paid on C's X and Z let's just write the
[625]
details over here the dividends will be something set sort of as equal to 5
[632]
million into 6% right close the bracket into $3,00,000 that is
[639]
the available cash so there we go we have the answer as 90000 and
[650]
for dividend paid for Z is going to be 5 million into 6% 3,00,000
[656]
so the total dividend that needs to be paid let me just calculate for you
[661]
5 million into 6% is equal to 5 into 6% and once we close
[671]
this just close this in the bracket and multiplied with this 3,00,000
[681]
that is 9,00,000 so since in the above case you know there is basically a
[688]
shortage of cash available for the payment and the total dividend liability
[694]
hence you know the only dividend upto 3,00,000 will be paid to the shareholders
[699]
and payment will not be distributed among the series of x and z now my next
[703]
question to you all is that is preferred share equity or debt which is the most
[711]
important thing that we need to discuss you see preferential is basically hybrid
[716]
security shares some feature of debt instrument and sum of equity why equity
[722]
some of the equity features like you know it is perpetual life
[726]
right in the financial statement it is shown under shareholders equity section
[729]
and not on the due debt column while interest payment on the debt are
[732]
tax-deductible preferred dividends are not tax deductible in case of the debt
[738]
feature we learned the equity feature now let's learn the debt feature in case
[748]
of debt feature the preferential shares have a very amount called as fixed
[752]
dividend payout as stock carries fixed dividend rate in fact investing in
[757]
preferences is more like investing in debt instruments rather than equity
[760]
since almost all the return comes in the form of dividends as it can be seen from
[766]
the stated facts if preferences exhibits the feature of both equity and debt
[771]
hence the classification of preference shares and the debt or equity would
[774]
depend upon the type and nature of the preferred stock see perpetual and
[778]
cumulative preferred share stock can easily be transferred as debt
[782]
instruments since the dividends received from them are fixed and invested capital
[786]
never gets refunded on account of their infinite period whereas you know if we
[791]
talk about the non-cumulative I'll just write for you non cumulative or
[797]
convertible exchange oh sorry convertible preference shares
[801]
are classified over here as equity hence it can be said you know that this type
[807]
of preferences share plays a very important role with respect to the classification
[811]
of the preference shares now the next thing that we need to understand who are
[814]
the users of the preferences see the cost of the preferential is more than
[818]
the cost of the debt but less than the cost of equity instruments so this
[821]
reason is simple the cost depends upon the riskiness the cost depends on the
[829]
riskiness associated with the instrument among all the three types instrument
[833]
mentioned you know about the financial risk is holding an equity stock and is
[838]
far greater due to the tax advantages of the interest payments and uncertain
[843]
eight-teen is associated with the its dividend premium on the other hand if
[847]
you see the cost of the preference share which is greater than the cost of debt
[850]
on account of the tax advantage you know and despite it being very costlier than
[856]
debt it is preferred by the large number of companies for raising additional
[860]
Capital among US companies the biggest issue of the preferences of the
[864]
financial companies are like banks insurance companies just right for you
[871]
insurance companies then you have and so on and so far and I know there is one
[878]
simple reason for it you know why because it may be very very much
[882]
expensive than the convertible debt and it is counted as equity by the
[885]
regulatory authorities while computing the capital ratios for the bank so let's
[891]
make the final conclusion to our tutorial over the years preferred shares have
[897]
become quite popular popular instrument used by the corporate for raising funds
[901]
preferred shared combines the feature of both debt and equity and though the
[908]
preferred dividend payment depends upon the number of factors such as like our
[910]
ability of cash profitability of the company but the shareholders right to
[915]
receive is absolutely and is not affected by the above factors so in case
[919]
the shortage of the fund it is paid at the later stage and all these factors
[924]
have contributed to the growing popularity of the preferred shares over
[927]
the other forms of investment so that's it for this particular topic if you have
