Valuation

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

EPS was negative in at least one boundary year, so a compound growth rate can't be computed from it. Set your own assumption.

EPS in 5 years
$2.51
Implied price
$45.27
Return from $384.27
-34.8% a year

To earn 15.0% a year on these assumptions you'd need to buy at $22.51 -94.1% 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/E1215182124
-2.0%-45.4%-43.0%-40.8%-39.0%-37.3%
3.0%-42.7%-40.0%-37.8%-35.9%-34.1%
8.0%-39.9%-37.1%-34.8%-32.8%-30.9%
13.0%-37.1%-34.2%-31.8%-29.6%-27.7%
18.0%-34.3%-31.3%-28.8%-26.5%-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.

Zuckus had his Twitter account since the beginning when he tried to buy the company at ThinkD, FINKD, which was his handle and college, I believe. And in the last 30 or 60 days, Nikesh from Palo Alto, and it works friend of the pod, he started tweeting and doing long-form. Jensen opened at X account. He started going long-form. Thanks for
