Valuation
Project earnings forward and see what return today's price implies.
Seeded from SON's reported EPS growth of 5.7% a year over 13 years.
- EPS in 5 years
- $5.25
- Implied price
- $57.78
- Return from $57.73
- 0.0% a year
To earn 15.0% a year on these assumptions you'd need to buy at $28.72 — -50.2% 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 | 7 | 9 | 11 | 13 | 15 |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| -4.3% | -17.3% | -13.0% | -9.4% | -6.4% | -3.6% |
| 0.7% | -12.9% | -8.5% | -4.7% | -1.5% | 1.4% |
| 5.7% | -8.6% | -3.9% | 0.0% | 3.4% | 6.4% |
| 10.7% | -4.3% | 0.6% | 4.7% | 8.3% | 11.5% |
| 15.7% | 0.0% | 5.2% | 9.5% | 13.2% | 16.5% |
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.

95 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.
