5-year outlook: Not shown because confidence is low: EV/EBITDA (12x) is somewhat apart.
Why: Free cash flow cannot be used (negative or far below earnings, with too little history to normalise it), so value is based on reinvestment-adjusted earnings.
Details and the full model are below.
Market price below modeled range
Showing the EPS-based Gordon proxy you selected on the company card, using 10.92% growth, 3.1% terminal growth and 10.8% discount. The range varies these assumptions slightly; it is illustrative, not investment advice.
Assumptions: growth 10.92%, discount rate 10.80%, terminal growth 3.10% (sector defaults). See a worked example.
Blended growth assumption: 10.9% (sector default 7.2%, own revenue history 26.6%, analyst revenue consensus 4.9%).
Analyst consensus expects revenue growth of 4.9% a year; the growth assumption used is 10.9%.

EPS-based Gordon proxy
— USD 24.22 (+36.4%)
Not used: Treats all earnings as if paid out and ignores the cash kept for reinvestment, so it overstates value for companies that retain most profit.

Not used: Cannot be computed: free cash flow is zero or negative.
-
FCFF (steady state)
— not applicable
Not used: Cannot be computed: free cash flow is zero or negative.
-
EV/EBITDA (12x)
— USD 37.65 (+112.0%)
Not used: Used only when free cash flow is far below earnings even after averaging three years; a fixed 12x multiple also ignores sector differences.

— not applicable
Not used: Cannot be computed: free cash flow is zero or negative.

EV/Sales (Rule of 40)
— USD 132.43 (+645.6%)

Margin = (value − price) / value, so it is measured against the value and reads lower than the upside to value, which is measured against the price. Positive means the price is below that case.
