Valuation
Project earnings forward and see what return today's price implies.
Seeded from CALM's reported EPS growth of 15.3% a year over 13 years.
- EPS in 5 years
- $13.54
- Implied price
- $148.97
- Return from $64.99
- 18.0% a year
To earn 15.0% a year on these assumptions you'd need to buy at $74.06 — today's price is already 12.3% below that.
How sensitive is that answer?
Annual return across nearby assumptions. If the result is only attractive in one corner, that is the finding.
| growth \ P/E | 7 | 9 | 11 | 13 | 15 |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| 5.3% | -1.5% | 3.6% | 7.8% | 11.5% | 14.7% |
| 10.3% | 3.2% | 8.5% | 12.9% | 16.8% | 20.2% |
| 15.3% | 7.8% | 13.4% | 18.0% | 22.1% | 25.6% |
| 20.3% | 12.5% | 18.3% | 23.2% | 27.3% | 31.0% |
| 25.3% | 17.2% | 23.2% | 28.3% | 32.6% | 36.5% |
This is arithmetic on assumptions you chose, not a forecast or a recommendation. It ignores dividends, buybacks, share issuance and debt, and it assumes a company still earning money in 5 years. Change any input and the answer changes a lot — that sensitivity is the honest result, not a flaw in the model.

…s: Why I'm Downgrading To Hold Cal-Maine Foods, Inc. is downgraded to Hold due to weaker-than-expected profitability amid a sharp decline in conventional egg prices. CALM's operating leverage and cash outflows highlight vulnerability to egg price cycles, despite a strong balance sheet and diversification into specialty and prepared foods.
