Valuation
Project earnings forward and see what return today's price implies.
Seeded from GRND's reported EPS growth of 46.6% a year over 6 years. Historical EPS growth of 47% reflects a recovery from a low base and won't persist. Capped at 30% as a starting point.
- EPS in 5 years
- $1.85
- Implied price
- $50.07
- Return from $13.43
- 30.1% a year
To earn 15.0% a year on these assumptions you'd need to buy at $24.89 — today's price is already 46.0% below that.
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 | 19 | 23 | 27 | 31 | 35 |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| 20.0% | 11.9% | 16.3% | 20.1% | 23.5% | 26.5% |
| 25.0% | 16.6% | 21.2% | 25.1% | 28.6% | 31.8% |
| 30.0% | 21.3% | 26.0% | 30.1% | 33.8% | 37.0% |
| 35.0% | 25.9% | 30.8% | 35.1% | 38.9% | 42.3% |
| 40.0% | 30.6% | 35.7% | 40.1% | 44.0% | 47.6% |
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.

44 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.
