At today's price, the market is pricing in about 12.5% annual free-cash-flow growth. We model 0.3% — so the price already assumes faster growth than we think is likely.
Assumptions: 9.3% discount rate (CAPM), 0.3% stage-1 growth, 2.5% terminal growth, $10.39 EPS, $7.12 annual dividend. Updated weekly.
