22.1 Options

An option gives the holder the right, but not the obligation,
to buy or sell a given quantity of an asset on (or before) a
given date, at prices agreed upon today.
Exercising the Option

Strike Price or Exercise Price

The act of buying or selling the underlying asset


Refers to the fixed price in the option contract at which the holder
can buy or sell the underlying asset

Expiry (Expiration Date)

The maturity date of the option


22-4

Options

European versus American options

In-the-Money

Exercising the option would result in a positive payoff.

At-the-Money

European options can be exercised only at expiry.


American options can be exercised at any time up to expiry.

Exercising the option would result in a zero payoff (i.e., exercise


price equal to spot price).

Out-of-the-Money

Exercising the option would result in a negative payoff.


22-5

22.2 Call Options

Call options gives the holder the right,


but not the obligation, to buy a given
quantity of some asset on or before
some time in the future, at prices
agreed upon today.
When exercising a call option, you
call in the asset.
22-6

Call Option Pricing at Expiry

At expiry, an American call option is worth the same


as a European option with the same characteristics.

If the call is in-the-money, it is worth ST E.

If the call is out-of-the-money, it is worthless:

C = Max[ST E, 0]
Where
ST is the value of the stock at expiry (time T)
E is the exercise price.
C is the value of the call option at expiry

22.3 Put Options

Put options gives the holder the right,

quantity of an asset on or before some
time in the future, at prices agreed
upon today.
When exercising a put, you put the
asset to someone.

Put Option Pricing at Expiry

At expiry, an American put option is worth


the same as a European option with the
same characteristics.
If the put is in-the-money, it is worth E

If the put is out-of-the-money, it is
worthless.

22.8 An Option Pricing Formula

We will start with


a binomial option
pricing formula to
build our
intuition.

Then we will
graduate to the
normal
approximation to
the binomial for
some real-world
option valuation.
22-38

Binomial Option Pricing Model


Suppose a stock is worth $25 today and in one period will either be worth
15% more or 15% less. S0= $25 today, and in one year S1is either $28.75 or
$21.25. The risk-free rate is 5%. What is the value of an at-the-money call
option?

S0

S1

$28.75 = $25(1.15)

$25
$21.25 = $25(1 .15)
22-39

Binomial Option Pricing Model


1.

2.

A call option on this stock with exercise price of $25 will


have the following payoffs.
We can replicate the payoffs of the call option with a levered
position in the stock.

S0

S1

C1

$28.75

$3.75

$21.25

$0

$25

22-40

Binomial Option Pricing Model


Borrow the present value of $21.25 today and buy 1 share.
The net payoff for this levered equity portfolio in one period is either
$7.50 or $0.
The levered equity portfolio has twice the options payoff, so the
portfolio is worth twice the call option value.

S0

( S1 debt ) = portfolio C1

$28.75 $21.25 = $7.50

$3.75

$25
$21.25 $21.25 =

$0

$0

22-41

Binomial Option Pricing Model


The value today of the levered equity
portfolio is todays value of one share
less the present value of a $21.25 debt:

S0

$21.25
$25
(1 R f )

( S1 debt ) = portfolio C1

$28.75 $21.25 = $7.50

$3.75

$25
$21.25 $21.25 =

$0

$0
22-42

Binomial Option Pricing Model


We can value the call option today as
half of the value of the levered equity
portfolio:

S0

1
$21.25
C0 $25
2
(1 R f )

( S1 debt ) = portfolio C1

$28.75 $21.25 = $7.50

$3.75

$25
$21.25 $21.25 =

$0

$0
22-43

Binomial Option Pricing Model


If the interest rate is 5%, the call is worth:

22-44

Binomial Option Pricing Model


The most important lesson (so far) from the
binomial option pricing model is:

the replicating portfolio intuition.


Many derivative securities can be valued by
valuing portfolios of primitive securities
when those portfolios have the same payoffs
as the derivative securities.
22-45

Delta

This practice of the construction of a riskless


hedge is called delta hedging.
The delta of a call option is positive.

Recall from the example:

$3.75 0
$3.75 1
Swing of call

Swing of stock
$28.75 $21.25 $7.5 2
The delta of a put option is negative.

The Risk-Neutral Approach


S(U), V(U)
q

S(0), V(0)
1- q

S(D), V(D)
We could value the option, V(0), as the value of the replicating
portfolio. An equivalent method is risk-neutral valuation:
q V (U ) (1 q ) V ( D )
V ( 0)
(1 R f )
22-48

The Risk-Neutral Approach


S(U), V(U)
q
q is the risk-neutral
probability of an
up move.

S(0), V(0)
1- q
S(0) is the value of the underlying asset today.

S(D), V(D)

S(U) and S(D) are the values of the asset in the next period
following an up move and a down move, respectively.
V(U) and V(D) are the values of the option in the next period
following an up move and a down move, respectively.

22-49

The Risk-Neutral Approach


S(U), V(U)
q

V ( 0)

S(0), V(0)

q V (U ) (1 q ) V ( D )
(1 R f )

1- q
S(D), V(D)

The key to finding q is to note that it is already impounded


into an observable security price: the value of S(0):
q S (U ) (1 q ) S ( D)
S ( 0)
(1 R f )

A minor bit of algebra yields: q

(1 R f ) S (0) S ( D )
S (U ) S ( D)

22-50

Example of Risk-Neutral Valuation


Suppose a stock is worth $25 today and in one period will
either be worth 15% more or 15% less. The risk-free rate is
5%. What is the value of an at-the-money call option?
The binomial tree would look like this:
$28.75 $25 (1.15)

$25,C(0)

$28.75,C(U)
$21.25 $25 (1 .15)

1- q

$21.25,C(D)

22-51

Example of Risk-Neutral Valuation


The next step would be to compute the risk neutral probabilities

Finally, find the value of the call at time 0:

The Black-Scholes Model


C0 S N(d1 ) Ee Rt N(d 2 )
Where

variable will be less than

The Black-Scholes Model allows us to value options in the


real world just as we have done in the 2-state world.

22-56

The Black-Scholes Model


Find the value of a six-month call option on Hardcraft, Inc. with an
exercise price of $150.
The current value of a share of Hardcraft is $160.
The interest rate available in the U.S. is R = 5%.
The option maturity is 6 months (half of a year).
The volatility of the underlying asset is 30% per annum.
Before we start, note that the intrinsic value of the option is $10our
answer must be at least that amount.

22-57

The Black-Scholes Model


Lets try our hand at using the model. If you have a calculator handy, follow along.

First calculate d1 and d2

22.9 Stocks and Bonds as Options

Levered equity is a call option.

The underlying asset comprises the assets of the firm.


The strike price is the payoff of the bond.

If at the maturity of their debt, the assets of the


firm are greater in value than the debt, the
shareholders have an in-the-money call. They will
pay the bondholders and call in the assets of the
firm.
If at the maturity of the debt the shareholders have
an out-of-the-money call, they will not pay the
bondholders (i.e. the shareholders will declare
bankruptcy) and let the call expire.

22-60

Stocks and Bonds as Options

Levered equity is a put option.

The underlying asset comprises the assets of the firm.


The strike price is the payoff of the bond.

If at the maturity of their debt, the assets of the


firm are less in value than the debt, shareholders
have an in-the-money put.
They will put the firm to the bondholders.
If at the maturity of the debt the shareholders have
an out-of-the-money put, they will not exercise the

Mergers and Diversification

Diversification is a frequently mentioned reason for mergers.


Diversification reduces risk and, therefore, volatility.
Decreasing volatility decreases the value of an option.
Assume diversification is the only benefit to a merger:

Since equity can be viewed as a call option, should the merger


increase or decrease the value of the equity?
Since risky debt can be viewed as risk-free debt minus a put option,
what happens to the value of the risky debt?
Overall, what has happened with the merger and is it a good decision
in view of the goal of stockholder wealth maximization?

22-63

Example

Consider the following two merger candidates.


The merger is for diversification purposes only with no synergies involved.
Risk-free rate is 4%.

Market value of assets


Face value of zero
coupon debt
Debt maturity
Asset return standard
deviation

Company A
$40 million
$18 million

Company B
$15 million
$7 million

4 years
40%

Example

Use the Black and Scholes OPM (or an options


calculator) to compute the value of the equity.
Value of the debt = value of assets value of equity
Company A Company B
Market Value of Equity

25.72

9.88

Market Value of Debt

14.28

5.12

22-65

Example

The asset return standard deviation for the combined firm is 30%
Market value assets (combined) = 40 + 15 = 55
Face value debt (combined) = 18 + 7 = 25

Combined Firm
Market value of equity

34.18

Market value of debt

20.82

Total MV of equity of separate firms = 25.72 + 9.88 = 35.60


Wealth transfer from stockholders to bondholders = 35.60 34.18 = 1.42
(exact increase in MV of debt)
22-66

M&A Conclusions
Mergers for diversification only transfer wealth
from the stockholders to the bondholders.
The standard deviation of returns on the assets
is reduced, thereby reducing the option value of
the equity.
If managements goal is to maximize
stockholder wealth, then mergers for reasons of
diversification should not occur.

Options and Capital Budgeting

Stockholders may prefer low NPV projects to high


NPV projects if the firm is highly leveraged and the
low NPV project increases volatility.
Consider a company with the following characteristics:

MV assets = 40 million
Face Value debt = 25 million
Debt maturity = 5 years
Asset return standard deviation = 40%
Risk-free rate = 4%

22-68

Example: Low NPV

Current market value of equity = $22.706 million


Current market value of debt = $17.294 million

Example: Low NPV


Which project should management take?
Even though project B has a lower NPV, it is
better for stockholders.
The firm has a relatively high amount of leverage:

With project A, the bondholders share in the NPV


because it reduces the risk of bankruptcy.
With project B, the stockholders actually appropriate
additional wealth from the bondholders for a larger
gain in value.

22-70

Example: Negative NPV


We have seen that stockholders might prefer a low
NPV to a high one, but would they ever prefer a
negative NPV?
Under certain circumstances, they might.
If the firm is highly leveraged, stockholders have
nothing to lose if a project fails, and everything to
gain if it succeeds.
Consequently, they may prefer a very risky project
with a negative NPV but high potential rewards.

22-71

Example: Negative NPV


Consider the previous firm.
They have one additional project they are
considering with the following characteristics

Project NPV = -$2 million


MV of assets = $38 million
Asset return standard deviation = 65%

Estimate the value of the debt and equity


MV equity = $25.453 million
MV debt = $12.547 million

22-72

Example: Negative NPV


In this case, stockholders would actually prefer
the negative NPV project to either of the
positive NPV projects.
The stockholders benefit from the increased
volatility associated with the project even if
the expected NPV is negative.
This happens because of the large levels of
leverage.

22-73

Options and Capital Budgeting


As a general rule, managers should not accept
low or negative NPV projects and pass up high
NPV projects.
Under certain circumstances, however, this may
benefit stockholders:

The firm is highly leveraged


The low or negative NPV project causes a substantial
increase in the standard deviation of asset returns

Classic NPV calculations generally ignore


the flexibility that real-world firms
typically have.

Option to expand
Option to abandon
