Valuation
Valuation signal
Fairly valuedIn our model the price counts as cheap below $292.69 and expensive above $543.56 (uncertainty medium, based on the price swings of the past year).
The two parts of the fair value come to $371.20 (cash-flow model) and $389.79 (industry comparison), and the gap between them shows how uncertain the estimate is. The price is slightly above both parts; given how much the stock swings, that still counts as fair.
Calculated with a cost of equity of 8.8%. At 9.8% the fair value would be $359.02, at 7.8% it would be $412.19.
Valuation metrics
Half from the cash-flow model, half from earnings times the industry P/E (7.5).
