At today's price, the market is pricing in about 9.0% annual free-cash-flow growth. We model 5.6% — so the price already assumes faster growth than we think is likely.
Assumptions: 7.0% discount rate (CAPM), 5.6% stage-1 growth, 2.5% terminal growth, $7.62 EPS, $5.92 annual dividend. Updated weekly.
