Valuation
Project earnings forward and see what return today's price implies.
Seeded from WLY's reported EPS growth of 4.2% a year over 13 years.
- EPS in 5 years
- $5.19
- Implied price
- $51.89
- Return from $48.45
- 1.4% a year
To earn 15.0% a year on these assumptions you'd need to buy at $25.80 — -46.8% 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 | 6 | 8 | 10 | 12 | 14 |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| -5.8% | -17.3% | -12.3% | -8.3% | -4.9% | -2.0% |
| -0.8% | -12.9% | -7.7% | -3.5% | 0.1% | 3.2% |
| 4.2% | -8.5% | -3.0% | 1.4% | 5.1% | 8.4% |
| 9.2% | -4.1% | 1.6% | 6.2% | 10.2% | 13.6% |
| 14.2% | 0.3% | 6.3% | 11.1% | 15.2% | 18.8% |
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.

Insider trading
Open-market buys and sells by WLY officers and directors.
No open-market trades in the recent filings. All 100 recent Form 4 entries were share awards, option exercises or tax withholding — pay, not decisions to buy or sell.
100 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. Via SEC filings.
Congress trades
No disclosed congressional trades in WLY.
Self-reported filings, amounts as brackets. Via Senate/House disclosures.
