Valuation

Valuation signal

Fairly valued
Price
$177.67
Fair value
$194.85
Gap to fair value
−9%

In our model the price counts as cheap below $162.37 and expensive above $243.56 (uncertainty low, based on the price swings of the past year).

The two parts of the fair value come to $208.94 (excess return model) and $180.76 (industry comparison), and the gap between them shows how uncertain the estimate is. The price is slightly below 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 $177.44, at 7.8% it would be $220.97.
