Valuation

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

Seeded from ECPG's reported EPS growth of -1.3% a year over 4 years.

EPS in 5 years
$10.35
Implied price
$51.77
Return from $103.74
-13.0% a year

To earn 15.0% a year on these assumptions you'd need to buy at $25.74 -75.2% 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/E13579
-11.3%-43.3%-29.4%-21.8%-16.4%-12.0%
-6.3%-40.1%-25.4%-17.4%-11.6%-7.1%
-1.3%-36.9%-21.4%-13.0%-6.9%-2.1%
3.7%-33.7%-17.4%-8.6%-2.2%2.8%
8.7%-30.5%-13.5%-4.2%2.5%7.8%

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.
