Valuation

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

Seeded from MRK's reported EPS growth of 9.1% a year over 4 years.

EPS in 5 years
$11.28
Implied price
$157.88
Return from $135.84
3.1% a year

To earn 15.0% a year on these assumptions you'd need to buy at $78.49 -42.2% 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
-0.9%-12.5%-9.2%-6.4%-3.9%-1.6%

14.1%0.8%4.5%7.8%10.7%13.3%
19.1%5.2%9.1%12.5%15.5%18.3%

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.
