At today's price, the market is pricing in about 40.0% annual free-cash-flow growth. We model 20.0% — so the price already assumes faster growth than we think is likely.
Assumptions: 10.5% discount rate (CAPM), 20.0% stage-1 growth, 2.5% terminal growth, $2.89 EPS, $0.40 annual dividend. Updated weekly.
Fair-value estimates are model output for educational purposes only — not investment advice or a price target.
