Valuation

Significantly undervalued
Price
$44.21
Fair value
$63.09
Gap to fair value
−30%

In our model the price counts as cheap below $48.53 and expensive above $90.13 (uncertainty medium, based on the price swings of the past year).

The two parts of the fair value come to $70.26 (cash-flow model) and $55.92 (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 7.5%. At 8.5% the fair value would be $56.96, at 6.5% it would be $72.31.
