Valuation

Valuation signal

Fairly valued
Price
$8.96
Fair value
$7.96
Gap to fair value
+13%

In our model the price counts as cheap below $5.31 and expensive above $15.93 (uncertainty very high, based on the price swings of the past year).

The two parts of the fair value come to $3.77 (cash-flow model) and $12.16 (industry comparison), and the gap between them shows how uncertain the estimate is.

Calculated with a cost of equity of 13.9%. At 14.9% the fair value would be $7.81, at 12.9% it would be $8.15.
