Valuation

Valuation signal

Significantly undervalued
Price
$7.66
Fair value
$22.60
Gap to fair value
−66%

In our model the price counts as cheap below $17.39 and expensive above $32.29 (uncertainty medium, based on the price swings of the past year).

The two parts of the fair value come to $28.67 (excess return model) and $16.54 (industry comparison), and the gap between them shows how uncertain the estimate is. The price is below both.

Calculated with a cost of equity of 7.3%. At 8.3% the fair value would be $20.21, at 6.3% it would be $26.18.
