Valuation signal
Significantly overvaluedIn our model the price counts as cheap below $4.42 and expensive above $8.21 (uncertainty medium, based on the price swings of the past year).
Calculated with a cost of equity of 8.2%. At 9.2% the fair value would be $4.93, at 7.2% it would be $6.97.
Where the number comes from
From the cash-flow model alone; without earnings there is no industry value.
Ten-year cash-flow model: 3 years from analyst estimates, then extrapolated until growth reaches 3.2% (five-year average government bond yield). Discounted at 8.2% (floor: government bond yield 3.2% plus 5 percentage points, since beta 1.13 times the risk premium would give less).
Calculate with your own assumptionsThe calculation step by step
With these figures the cash flow model arrives at $5.75 per share: free cash flow for the next ten years, each year discounted to today at 8.2%, 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) | $4.37B |
| Terminal value: cash flow 2035 × (1 + 3.2%) / (8.2% − 3.2%) | $10.43B |
| Present value of terminal value (× 0.4568) | $4.76B |
| Equity value (sum plus present value of terminal value) | $9.13B |
| Shares (diluted) | 1.59B |
| Value per share (equity value divided by shares) | $5.75 |
| Fair value (from the cash flow model alone) | $5.75 |
In the years with estimates, the model derives free cash flow from estimated earnings and revenue, because there are no estimates for the cash flow itself. 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.
