Valuation
Project earnings forward and see what return today's price implies.
Seeded from WM's reported EPS growth of 10.9% a year over 13 years.
- EPS in 5 years
- $11.28
- Implied price
- $372.25
- Return from $203.92
- 12.8% a year
To earn 15.0% a year on these assumptions you'd need to buy at $185.08 — -9.2% 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 | 23 | 28 | 33 | 38 | 43 |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| 0.9% | -4.5% | -0.7% | 2.6% | 5.6% | 8.2% |
| 5.9% | 0.2% | 4.2% | 7.7% | 10.8% | 13.6% |
| 10.9% | 4.9% | 9.1% | 12.8% | 16.0% | 18.9% |
| 15.9% | 9.7% | 14.1% | 17.9% | 21.2% | 24.3% |
| 20.9% | 14.4% | 19.0% | 23.0% | 26.5% | 29.6% |
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.
