WHF Price Forecast Based on Dividend Discount Model

For dividend yielding stocks, the Dividend Discount Model (DDM) is a common valuation tool; it attempts to extrapolate a fair share price based primarily on the dividend the stock provides relative to a number of other quantiative aspects of its business. As for WHF, the DDM model generated by StockNews estimates a return of positive 95.97% in comparison to its current price. To help understand and contextualize the model's evaluation of WHF, investors may wish to consider are:

• Compared to other US stocks that pay a dividend, WhiteHorse Finance Inc's dividend yield of 10.64% is in the top 3.08%.
• If we compare the valuation opportunity a dividend discount model provides relative to other dividend stocks in the Financial Services sector, the expected return of 95.97%, based on the stock's current share price and target price based on a dividend discount model, is greater than 91.14% of the DDM-forecasted return of its its sector peers.
