Valuation
Project earnings forward and see what return today's price implies.
Seeded from MFA's reported EPS growth of -5.0% a year over 13 years.
- EPS in 5 years
- $1.32
- Implied price
- $6.60
- Return from $6.55
- 0.1% a year
To earn 15.0% a year on these assumptions you'd need to buy at $3.28 — -50.0% 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 | 1 | 3 | 5 | 7 | 9 |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| -15.0% | -35.1% | -19.1% | -10.4% | -4.2% | 0.8% |
| -10.0% | -31.2% | -14.4% | -5.1% | 1.5% | 6.7% |
| -5.0% | -27.4% | -9.6% | 0.1% | 7.1% | 12.6% |
| 0.0% | -23.6% | -4.8% | 5.4% | 12.7% | 18.5% |
| 5.0% | -19.8% | -0.1% | 10.7% | 18.4% | 24.5% |
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.

99 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.
