Valuation
Valuation signal
Possible value trapIn our model the price counts as cheap below $202.79 and expensive above $473.17 (uncertainty high, based on the price swings of the past year).
The two parts of the fair value come to $116.26 (cash-flow model) and $451.54 (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 $276.31, at 7.8% it would be $295.16.
Possible value trap: looks cheap, but weak growth, weak balance sheet.
Valuation metrics
Half from the cash-flow model, half from earnings times the industry P/E (16).
