Valuation signal
Fairly valuedIn our model the price counts as cheap below $1,202.31 and expensive above $2,805.38 (uncertainty high, based on the price swings of the past year).
The two parts of the fair value come to $2,509.76 (cash-flow model) and $856.70 (industry comparison), and the gap between them shows how uncertain the estimate is.
Calculated with a cost of equity of 10.4%. At 11.4% the fair value would be $1,554.53, at 9.4% it would be $1,855.37.
Where the number comes from
Half from the cash-flow model, half from earnings times the industry P/E (23).
Ten-year cash-flow model: 5 years from analyst estimates, then extrapolated until growth reaches 3.8% (five-year average government bond yield). Discounted at 10.4% (government bond yield 3.8% plus beta 1.04 times a risk premium of 6.3%).
Calculate with your own assumptionsThe calculation step by step
With these figures the cash flow model arrives at $2,509.76 per share: free cash flow for the next ten years, each year discounted to today at 10.4%, plus the terminal value for the years after. The table explains the calculation; it is not a recommendation.

| Sum of present values (ten years) | $77.33B |
| Terminal value: cash flow 2035 × (1 + 3.8%) / (10.4% − 3.8%) | $134.24B |

| Fair value (average of both parts) | $1,683.23 |
In the years with estimates, the model derives free cash flow from estimated earnings and revenue, because there are no estimates for the cash flow itself. The model uses free cash flow after interest, which belongs to shareholders, discounted at the cost of equity. Net debt is therefore not deducted again.
