The present value or value, i.e., the hypothetical fair price of a stock according to the Dividend Discount Model, is the sum of the present values of all its dividends in perpetuity. The simplest version of the model assumes constant growth, constant discount rate and constant dividend yield in perpetuity. Then the present value of the stock is

MedICT has chosen the perpetuity growth model to calculate the value of cash flows beyond the forecast period.
The option price can therefore be calculated using the Black-Scholes-Merton model where will discount the dividends from which I will denote by ′ for the new value: S 0 ′ = 40 − 1.3541 = 38.6459 {\displaystyle S_{0}'=40-1.3541=38.6459}
