Valuation
Project earnings forward and see what return today's price implies.
Seeded from SMG's reported EPS growth of 2.8% a year over 13 years.
- EPS in 5 years
- $2.89
- Implied price
- $66.56
- Return from $49.02
- 6.3% a year
To earn 15.0% a year on these assumptions you'd need to buy at $33.09 — -32.5% 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 | 17 | 20 | 23 | 26 | 29 |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| -7.2% | -9.7% | -6.7% | -4.0% | -1.6% | 0.5% |
| -2.2% | -4.8% | -1.6% | 1.1% | 3.6% | 5.9% |
| 2.8% | 0.1% | 3.4% | 6.3% | 8.9% | 11.4% |
| 7.8% | 4.9% | 8.4% | 11.5% | 14.2% | 16.8% |
| 12.8% | 9.8% | 13.4% | 16.7% | 19.5% | 22.2% |
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.

94 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.
