EXECUTIVE SUMMARY
Encore International, a causal-wear company, has spectacular growth after 10 year of business and plan to have long-term expansion into European and Latin American markets while maintain its growth in future dividends. I. Objective
Encore International is a company that has spectacular growth. However the analysts speculated that Encore might encounter little or no growth in the future and no growth in future dividends. On the contrary, Jordan Ellis-the company founder, felt that company could maintain constant annual growth rate in dividends per share of 6%, 8% for next 2 years and 6% thereafter based on the expansion plan to European and Latin American markets. This expected to cause the risk from 8.8% to 10%. The risk free rate is 6%. Encore’s CFO assigned junior financial analyst, Marc Scott, to evaluate the firm’s current stock by considering the conservative’s and Jordan Ellis’s predictions.
