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
- $6.88
- Implied price
- $20.65
- Return from $13.61
- 8.7% a year
To earn 15.0% a year on these assumptions you'd need to buy at $10.27 — -24.6% 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 | -1 | 1 | 3 | 5 | 7 |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| -2.0% | — | -20.8% | -1.4% | 9.2% | 16.8% |
| 3.0% | — | -16.8% | 3.7% | 14.8% | 22.8% |
| 8.0% | — | -12.7% | 8.7% | 20.4% | 28.8% |
| 13.0% | — | -8.7% | 13.7% | 26.0% | 34.7% |
| 18.0% | — | -4.7% | 18.8% | 31.5% | 40.7% |
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.

Insider trading
Open-market buys and sells by DEC officers and directors.
No open-market trades in the recent filings. All 100 recent Form 4 entries were share awards, option exercises or tax withholding — pay, not decisions to buy or sell.
100 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.

Congress trades
No disclosed congressional trades in DEC.
