Valuation
Project earnings forward and see what return today's price implies.
Seeded from SO's reported EPS growth of 14.9% a year over 4 years.
- EPS in 5 years
- $7.88
- Implied price
- $173.40
- Return from $92.80
- 13.3% a year
To earn 15.0% a year on these assumptions you'd need to buy at $86.21 — -7.1% 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/E | 16 | 19 | 22 | 25 | 28 |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| 4.9% | -2.9% | 0.5% | 3.5% | 6.1% | 8.6% |
| 9.9% | 1.7% | 5.3% | 8.4% | 11.2% | 13.7% |
| 14.9% | 6.3% | 10.0% | 13.3% | 16.3% | 18.9% |
| 19.9% | 11.0% | 14.8% | 18.2% | 21.3% | 24.1% |
| 24.9% | 15.6% | 19.6% | 23.2% | 26.4% | 29.3% |
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.
