Valuation

Project earnings forward and see what return today's price implies.

EPS was negative in at least one boundary year, so a compound growth rate can't be computed from it. Set your own assumption.

EPS in 5 years
$2.40
Implied price
$57.69
Return from $37.44
9.0% a year

To earn 15.0% a year on these assumptions you'd need to buy at $28.68 -23.4% below today's price.

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/E1620242832

3.0%-4.1%0.3%4.0%7.2%10.1%

18.0%9.8%14.9%19.1%22.9%26.2%

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.
