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
- $12.12
- Implied price
- $290.89
- Return from $170.88
- 11.2% a year
To earn 15.0% a year on these assumptions you'd need to buy at $144.63 — -15.4% 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% | -6.9% | -2.7% | 0.9% | 4.1% | 6.9% |
| 3.0% | -2.2% | 2.3% | 6.1% | 9.4% | 12.4% |
| 8.0% | 2.6% | 7.2% | 11.2% | 14.7% | 17.8% |
| 13.0% | 7.3% | 12.2% | 16.4% | 20.0% | 23.3% |
| 18.0% | 12.1% | 17.2% | 21.5% | 25.3% | 28.7% |
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.

84 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.
