Gap to fair value
+163%

Closing price of 11 Nov 2026, used by the daily score.

In our model the price counts as cheap below $18.74 and expensive above $56.21 (uncertainty very high, based on the price swings of the past year).

The two parts of the fair value come to $21.95 (cash-flow model) and $34.26 (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 8.8%. At 9.8% the fair value would be $26.31, at 7.8% it would be $30.80.

Supporting passage from the call, verbatim
“Looking forward, we expect the following as long as the environment remains stable: a sequential increase in retail units sold and adjusted EBITDA in the higher end of our previously communicated range of $2.7 billion to $3.0 billion for the full year 2026.”

The outlook is not part of the score and not a recommendation to buy or sell.
