How we get there
Earnings multiple (Graham)
Graham's earnings-multiple formula, anchored to bond yields.
At today's price, the market is pricing in about 40.0% annual free-cash-flow growth. We model 12.0% — so the price already assumes faster growth than we think is likely.
Assumptions: 11.7% discount rate (CAPM), 12.0% growth for five years fading to 2.5% over the next five, $7.59 EPS, $2.60 annual dividend. Updated weekly.
Fair-value estimates are model output for educational purposes only — not investment advice or a price target.
