Valuation
Project earnings forward and see what return today's price implies.
Seeded from PSO's reported EPS growth of 1.5% a year over 13 years.
- EPS in 5 years
- $0.54
- Implied price
- $11.38
- Return from $16.25
- -6.9% a year
To earn 15.0% a year on these assumptions you'd need to buy at $5.66 — -65.2% 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/E | 15 | 18 | 21 | 24 | 27 |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| -8.5% | -21.5% | -18.6% | -16.0% | -13.8% | -11.7% |
| -3.5% | -17.2% | -14.1% | -11.5% | -9.1% | -6.9% |
| 1.5% | -12.9% | -9.7% | -6.9% | -4.3% | -2.1% |
| 6.5% | -8.6% | -5.2% | -2.3% | 0.4% | 2.8% |
| 11.5% | -4.4% | -0.8% | 2.3% | 5.1% | 7.6% |
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.
