Valuation
Project earnings forward and see what return today's price implies.
Seeded from IRDM's reported EPS growth of 1.8% a year over 13 years.
- EPS in 5 years
- $1.17
- Implied price
- $18.66
- Return from $48.96
- -17.5% a year
To earn 15.0% a year on these assumptions you'd need to buy at $9.28 — -81.1% 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 | 12 | 14 | 16 | 18 | 20 |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| -8.2% | -29.8% | -27.6% | -25.6% | -23.9% | -22.3% |
| -3.2% | -26.0% | -23.7% | -21.6% | -19.7% | -18.0% |
| 1.8% | -22.2% | -19.7% | -17.5% | -15.6% | -13.8% |
| 6.8% | -18.3% | -15.8% | -13.5% | -11.4% | -9.6% |
| 11.8% | -14.5% | -11.8% | -9.4% | -7.3% | -5.3% |
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.

87 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.
