Method and definitions
- Fair value blends a discounted cash flow model, a dividend discount model and an earnings-multiple estimate; a name is undervalued when price is below the blended estimate by more than the model's margin of safety. The safety score (0–100) weighs payout coverage, free cash flow, balance sheet, growth history and yield versus its own history.
