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
- $1.27
- Implied price
- $22.94
- Return from $391.34
- -43.3% a year
To earn 15.0% a year on these assumptions you'd need to buy at $11.40 — -97.1% 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 | 12 | 15 | 18 | 21 | 24 |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| -2.0% | -52.6% | -50.4% | -48.5% | -46.9% | -45.5% |
| 3.0% | -50.1% | -47.9% | -45.9% | -44.2% | -42.7% |
| 8.0% | -47.7% | -45.3% | -43.3% | -41.5% | -39.9% |
| 13.0% | -45.3% | -42.8% | -40.7% | -38.8% | -37.2% |
| 18.0% | -42.9% | -40.3% | -38.0% | -36.1% | -34.4% |
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.
