Valuation
Valuation signal
Modestly overvaluedClosing price of 11 Nov 2026, used by the daily score.
In our model the price counts as cheap below $2.40 and expensive above $5.59 (uncertainty high, based on the price swings of the past year).
The two parts of the fair value come to $1.99 (excess return model) and $4.72 (industry comparison), and the gap between them shows how uncertain the estimate is. The price is above both.
Calculated with a cost of equity of 6.1%. At 7.1% the fair value would be $3.19, at 5.1% it would be $3.60.
Valuation metrics
Half from the excess return model, half from earnings times the industry P/E (12.7).
