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 $30.02
- 14.0% a year
To earn 15.0% a year on these assumptions you'd need to buy at $28.68 — -4.4% 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/E | 16 | 20 | 24 | 28 | 32 |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| -2.0% | -4.6% | -0.3% | 3.4% | 6.6% | 9.5% |
| 3.0% | 0.2% | 4.8% | 8.7% | 12.1% | 15.1% |
| 8.0% | 5.1% | 9.9% | 14.0% | 17.5% | 20.7% |
| 13.0% | 9.9% | 15.0% | 19.2% | 23.0% | 26.3% |
| 18.0% | 14.8% | 20.1% | 24.5% | 28.4% | 31.9% |
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.

63 further Form 4 entries are share awards, option exercises or shares withheld for tax. Those are compensation, not trades, so they are excluded above. Buying is the stronger signal: an insider spends their own money for one reason. Selling has many innocent explanations — tax, diversifying, a house — so it says far less than it appears to.
