Valuation

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

Seeded from ESNT's reported EPS growth of 3.3% a year over 4 years.

EPS in 5 years
$8.20
Implied price
$73.78
Return from $69.57
1.2% a year

To earn 15.0% a year on these assumptions you'd need to buy at $36.68 -47.3% 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/E5791113

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.
