At today's price, the market is pricing in about 16.8% annual free-cash-flow growth. We model 12.0% — so the price already assumes faster growth than we think is likely.
Assumptions: 10.8% discount rate (CAPM), 12.0% growth for five years fading to 2.5% over the next five, $0.60 EPS, $0.16 annual dividend. Updated weekly.
