Valuation
Valuation signal
Fairly valuedIn our model the price counts as cheap below $284.89 and expensive above $854.67 (uncertainty very high, based on the price swings of the past year).
The two parts of the fair value come to $404.41 (cash-flow model) and $450.26 (industry comparison), and the gap between them shows how uncertain the estimate is. The price is slightly below both parts; given how much the stock swings, that still counts as fair.
Calculated with a cost of equity of 11.8%. At 12.8% the fair value would be $401.16, at 10.8% it would be $461.27.
Valuation metrics
Half from the cash-flow model, half from earnings times the industry P/E (38.9).
