Valuation signal
Significantly undervaluedIn our model the price counts as cheap below $7.49 and expensive above $13.91 (uncertainty medium, based on the price swings of the past year).
The two parts of the fair value come to $11.62 (cash-flow model) and $7.85 (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 8.8%. At 9.8% the fair value would be $8.77, at 7.8% it would be $11.18.
Where the number comes from
Half from the cash-flow model, half from earnings times the industry P/E (19.7).
Ten-year cash-flow model from smoothed free cash flow and its past growth until it reaches 3.8%. Discounted at 8.8% (floor: government bond yield 3.8% plus 5 percentage points, since beta 0.8 times the risk premium would give less); no analyst estimates were available.
Calculate with your own assumptionsThe calculation step by step
With these figures the cash flow model arrives at $11.62 per share: free cash flow for the next ten years, each year discounted to today at 8.8%, plus the terminal value for the years after. The table explains the calculation; it is not a recommendation.

| Step | Value |
|---|---|
| Sum of present values (ten years) | $28.06B |
| Terminal value: cash flow 2036 × (1 + 3.8%) / (8.8% − 3.8%) | $106.51B |
| Present value of terminal value (× 0.4295) | $45.74B |
| Equity value (sum plus present value of terminal value) | $73.8B |
| Shares (diluted) | 6.35B |
| Value per share (equity value divided by shares) | $11.62 |
| Earnings per share, last twelve months | $0.40 |
| × 19.7 (industry P/E) | $7.85 |
| Fair value (average of both parts) | $9.74 |
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.
