Valuation

Valuation signal

Significantly overvalued
Price
$45.81
Fair value
$36.61
Gap to fair value
+25%

In our model the price counts as cheap below $30.51 and expensive above $45.76 (uncertainty low, based on the price swings of the past year).

The two parts of the fair value come to $34.92 (cash-flow model) and $38.30 (industry comparison), and the gap between them shows how uncertain the estimate is. The price is above both.

Calculated with a cost of equity of 7.4%. At 8.4% the fair value would be $32.79, at 6.4% it would be $43.41.
