Valuation
Project earnings forward and see what return today's price implies.
Seeded from UVV's reported EPS growth of -9.9% a year over 13 years.
- EPS in 5 years
- $0.77
- Implied price
- $31.71
- Return from $42.20
- -5.6% a year
To earn 15.0% a year on these assumptions you'd need to buy at $15.77 — -62.6% 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 | 29 | 35 | 41 | 47 | 53 |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| -19.9% | -21.7% | -18.7% | -16.0% | -13.7% | -11.6% |
| -14.9% | -16.8% | -13.6% | -10.8% | -8.3% | -6.1% |
| -9.9% | -11.9% | -8.5% | -5.6% | -2.9% | -0.6% |
| -4.9% | -7.0% | -3.4% | -0.3% | 2.4% | 4.9% |
| 0.1% | -2.1% | 1.7% | 4.9% | 7.8% | 10.5% |
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.
