Valuation
Valuation signal
Possible value trapIn our model the price counts as cheap below $23.31 and expensive above $54.39 (uncertainty high, based on the price swings of the past year).
The two parts of the fair value come to $45.06 (cash-flow model) and $20.20 (industry comparison), and the gap between them shows how uncertain the estimate is. The price is below both.
Calculated with a cost of equity of 11.9%. At 12.9% the fair value would be $30.12, at 10.9% it would be $35.87.
Possible value trap: looks cheap, but high risk, weak growth.
