Valuation
Valuation signal
Modestly undervaluedIn our model the price counts as cheap below $81.41 and expensive above $151.19 (uncertainty medium, based on the price swings of the past year).
The two parts of the fair value come to $102.24 (excess return model) and $109.42 (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 8.8%. At 9.8% the fair value would be $97.31, at 7.8% it would be $118.61.
Valuation metrics
