Bond Issuers
CH6
Bond is a promissory note (i.e. a fancy IOU) issued by a business, a government unit or a foreign party. Each type differs in risk and expected return. Although Government of Canada bonds have no default risk, they are not riskless. Depending on the business, corporate bonds are exposed to default risk. Foreign bonds have additional exchange rate risk. With C$ denominations, Maple bonds are appealing.

Par value: Face amount; paid at maturity. Assume $1,000. Coupon interest rate: Stated interest rate. Multiply by par value to get dollars of interest. Generally fixed, but can vary.

6-6
Maturity: Years until bond must be repaid. Declines. Issue date: Date when bond was issued. Default risk: Risk that issuer will not make interest or principal payments.

6-7
Call Provision
CH6
Issuer can refund if interest rates decline. That helps the issuer but hurts the investor. Therefore, borrowers are willing to pay more, and lenders require more, on callable bonds. Most bonds have a deferred call and a declining call premium. The Canada call feature restricts the call price to a certain level.

Retractable Bonds
CH6
Investors have the right to sell the bonds back before maturity to the issuing company at a pre-set price. Protect investors from the rising interest rates or the event risk.
6-9
Provision to pay off a loan over its life rather than all at maturity. Similar to amortization on a term loan. Reduces risk to investor, shortens average maturity. But not good for investors if rates decline after issuance.

1. Call x% at par per year for sinking fund purposes. 2. Buy bonds on open market. Company would call if the going market rate of interest (rd) is below the coupon rate and bond sells at a premium. Use open market purchase if rd is above coupon rate and bond sells at a discount.

Convertible bonds: convert into shares of common stock, at a fixed price, at the bondholders discretion Income bonds: pay interest only when the issuer can afford. Real return bonds: principal and interests are indexed and protected against inflation.

Whats yield-to-maturity?
CH6
YTM is the expected rate of total return earned on a bond held to maturity. Also called promised yield. YTM = expected current (interest) yield + expected capital gains yield. It assumes the bond will not default and cannot be called. YTM changes whenever market interest rates change.

If you bought bonds, would you be more likely to earn YTM or YTC?
CH6
Coupon rate = 10% vs. YTC = rd = 4.21%. Firm could raise money by selling new bonds which pay 4.21% Could thus replace bonds which pay $100/year with bonds that pay only $42.1/year. Investors should expect a call, hence YTC = 4.21%, not YTM = 5%

6-25
If you bought bonds, would you be more likely to earn YTM or YTC? (contd)
CH6
In general, if a bond sells at a premium, then (1) coupon > rd, so (2) a call is likely. So, expect to earn:
YTC on premium bonds. YTM on par & discount bonds.

Current yield

Cap gains yield = YTM - Current yield = 5.00% - 6.69% = - 1.69% Cap gains yield = Change in price/beginning price = -25.25/1494.93 = - 1.69%

At maturity, the value of any bond must equal its par value. The value of a premium bond would decrease to $1,000 The value of a discount bond would increase to $1,000 A par bond stays at $1,000 if rd remains constant.

If coupon rate < rd, bond sells at a discount. If coupon rate = rd, bond sells at its par value. If coupon rate > rd, bond sells at a premium. If rd rises, price falls. Price = par at maturity.

rd = r* + IP + DRP + LP + MRP
where rd = Required rate of return on a debt security. r* = Real risk-free rate. IP = Inflation premium. DRP = Default risk premium. LP= Liquidity premium. MRP= Maturity risk premium.

Inflation erodes the purchasing power of money. The IP for a particular length maturity can be approximated as the difference between the yield on a non-indexed security of that maturity minus the yield on a default-free government bond of that maturity.

rRF = (1+r*)(1+IP)-1
= r*+ IP + (r*x IP) r*+ IP. (Because r*x IP is small)

Investors want to be compensated for the chance that interest or principal will not be paid on the due date and in the promised amount The greater the default risk, the higher the bonds DRP While Canada bonds is default free, default risk can be substantial for corporate bonds

A bond spread is often calculated as the difference between a corporate bonds yield and a Government of Canada bonds yield of the same maturity. Therefore:
Spread = DRP + LP.
Bonds of large, strong companies often have very small LPs. Bonds of small companies often have LPs as high as 2%.

The risk that CFs will have to be reinvested in the future at lower rates, reducing income. Illustration: Suppose you just won $500,000 playing the lottery. Youll invest the money and live off the interest. You buy a 1-year bond with a YTM of 10%.

Year 1 income = $50,000. At yearend get back $500,000 to reinvest. If rates fall to 3%, income will drop from $50,000 to $15,000. Had you bought 30-year bonds, income would have remained constant.

Remarks of MRP
CH6
Long-term bonds: High interest rate risk, low reinvestment rate risk. Short-term bonds: Low interest rate risk, high reinvestment rate risk. Nothing is riskless! Yields on longer term bonds usually are greater than on shorter term bonds, so the MRP is more affected by interest rate risk than by reinvestment rate risk.

Corporate yield curves are higher than that of the Govt of Canada bond. However, corporate yield curves are not necessarily parallel to the Govt of Canada curve. The spread between a corporate yield curve and the Govt of Canada curve widens as the corporate bond rating decreases.

Bankruptcy (contd)
CH6
If company cant meet its obligations, it files under CRA. That stops creditors from foreclosing, taking assets, and shutting down the business. Company has 120 days to file a reorganization plan.
Court appoints a trustee to supervise reorganization. Management usually stays in control.

In a liquidation, unsecured creditors generally get zero. This makes them more willing to participate in reorganization even though their claims are greatly scaled back. Various groups of creditors vote on the reorganization plan. If both the majority of the creditors and the judge approve, company emerges from bankruptcy with lower debts, reduced interest charges, and a chance for success.
