Valuation

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

Seeded from KRT's reported EPS growth of 8.6% a year over 4 years.

EPS in 5 years
$2.37
Implied price
$33.19
Return from $47.91
-7.1% a year

To earn 15.0% a year on these assumptions you'd need to buy at $16.50 -65.6% 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/E1012141618
-1.4%-21.1%-18.2%-15.6%-13.4%-11.3%
3.6%-17.1%-14.0%-11.4%-9.0%-6.8%

13.6%-9.1%-5.8%-2.8%-0.2%2.2%
18.6%-5.1%-1.6%1.5%4.2%6.7%

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.
