Details and the full model are below.
Market price within modeled range
Justified P/B (ROE) using TTM through 30 Sep 2026 net income and book equity: return on equity of 12.4% gives a fair price-to-book of 1.39x, with 2.4% growth (capped at the terminal rate) and 9.6% discount. The range varies growth and discount by 1 percentage point; it is illustrative, not a statistical confidence interval or investment advice.
Assumptions: growth 3% (limited from 5.09% because the latest annual revenue declined), discount rate 9.60%, terminal growth 2.40%. See a worked example.
Blended growth assumption: 5.1% (sector default 5.4%, own revenue history 4.8%, analyst revenue consensus 5.1%).
5-year outlook: relative outlook of about 9.1% a year (High confidence), anchored to a 7% market return and adjusted for how this company ranks against others. A ranking aid, not a prediction. See the full forecast.
Analyst consensus expects revenue growth of 5.1% a year; the growth assumption used is 3.0%.
