Valuation
Valuation signal
Fairly valuedIn our model the price counts as cheap below $88.66 and expensive above $164.66 (uncertainty medium, based on the price swings of the past year).
The two parts of the fair value come to $116.61 (excess return model) and $113.92 (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 8.8%. At 9.8% the fair value would be $105.54, at 7.8% it would be $129.84.
Valuation metrics
Half from the excess return model, half from earnings times the industry P/E (12.2).
