Stocks that don't pay dividends yet Goodwin Technologies, a relatively young company, has been wildly successful but has yet to pay a dividend. An analyst forecasts that Goodwin is likely to pay its first dividend three years from now. She expects Goodwin to pay a $5.00000 dividend at that time (D₃ = $5.00000) and believes that the dividend will grow by 26.00000% for the following two years (D₄ and D₅).

Fill in the following chart to determine Goodwin’s horizon value at the horizon date (when constant growth begins) and the current intrinsic value.
