Price
$16.37
Fair value

Gap to fair value
−50%

Closing price of 11 Nov 2026, used by the daily score.

In our model the price counts as cheap below $25.00 and expensive above $46.44 (uncertainty medium, based on the price swings of the past year).

The two parts of the fair value come to $30.76 (excess return model) and $34.25 (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 $29.94, at 7.8% it would be $36.35.
