Valuation
Project earnings forward and see what return today's price implies.
Seeded from LOPE's reported EPS growth of 13.1% a year over 13 years.
- EPS in 5 years
- $14.36
- Implied price
- $301.52
- Return from $155.55
- 14.2% a year
To earn 15.0% a year on these assumptions you'd need to buy at $149.91 — -3.6% 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/E | 15 | 18 | 21 | 24 | 27 |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| 3.1% | -2.7% | 0.9% | 4.1% | 6.9% | 9.4% |
| 8.1% | 2.0% | 5.8% | 9.1% | 12.1% | 14.7% |
| 13.1% | 6.7% | 10.7% | 14.2% | 17.2% | 20.0% |
| 18.1% | 11.4% | 15.6% | 19.2% | 22.4% | 25.3% |
| 23.1% | 16.2% | 20.5% | 24.2% | 27.6% | 30.7% |
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.

77 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.
