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
- $22.92
- Implied price
- $504.22
- Return from $330.09
- 8.8% a year
To earn 15.0% a year on these assumptions you'd need to buy at $250.69 — -24.1% 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 | 16 | 19 | 22 | 25 | 28 |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| -2.0% | -7.3% | -4.1% | -1.2% | 1.3% | 3.6% |
| 3.0% | -2.6% | 0.8% | 3.8% | 6.5% | 8.9% |
| 8.0% | 2.1% | 5.7% | 8.8% | 11.7% | 14.2% |
| 13.0% | 6.9% | 10.6% | 13.9% | 16.8% | 19.5% |
| 18.0% | 11.6% | 15.5% | 18.9% | 22.0% | 24.8% |
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.
