Gap to fair value
−22%

In our model the price counts as cheap below $48.18 and expensive above $112.41 (uncertainty high, one part of the fair value is more than twice the other).

The two parts of the fair value come to $91.29 (cash-flow model) and $43.60 (industry comparison), and the gap between them shows how uncertain the estimate is.

Calculated with a cost of equity of 8.8%. At 9.8% the fair value would be $60.45, at 7.8% it would be $77.91.
