Valuation
Project earnings forward and see what return today's price implies.
Seeded from NNI's reported EPS growth of 9.0% a year over 13 years.
- EPS in 5 years
- $18.15
- Implied price
- $199.62
- Return from $123.57
- 10.1% a year
To earn 15.0% a year on these assumptions you'd need to buy at $99.25 — -19.7% 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 | 7 | 9 | 11 | 13 | 15 |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| -1.0% | -8.7% | -4.0% | -0.0% | 3.4% | 6.4% |
| 4.0% | -4.1% | 0.9% | 5.0% | 8.6% | 11.7% |
| 9.0% | 0.6% | 5.7% | 10.1% | 13.8% | 17.1% |
| 14.0% | 5.2% | 10.6% | 15.1% | 19.0% | 22.5% |
| 19.0% | 9.8% | 15.4% | 20.2% | 24.2% | 27.9% |
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.

96 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.
