5-year outlook: Not shown because confidence is low: Earnings-based DCF agrees.
Other models: GBP 6.22–13.81 (median 7.66). The recommended value is 39% above that median, so treat the upside with extra caution.
Why: Free cash flow is positive and in line with earnings, and the dividend is small, so a cash-flow DCF fits best.
Details and the full model are below.
Market price below modeled range
Free-cash-flow DCF using Fiscal year 2025 reported free cash flow, with cash, debt, and shares from the latest report. Base assumptions are 14.35% growth, 2.7% terminal growth, and 10% discount. Low/high cases vary growth by 2 and terminal growth/discount by 1 percentage point; this illustrative range is not a statistical confidence interval or investment advice.
Assumptions: growth 14.35%, discount rate 10%, terminal growth 2.70% (sector defaults). See a worked example.
Blended growth assumption: 14.3% (sector default 6.2%, own revenue history 40.0%, analyst revenue consensus 5.6%).
Analyst consensus expects revenue growth of 5.6% a year; the growth assumption used is 14.4%.
Adjust assumptions
Why this model: Free cash flow is positive and in line with earnings, and the dividend is small, so a cash-flow DCF fits best.

EPS-based Gordon proxy
— GBP 7.66 (+77.6%)
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.

DCF (trailing free cash flow)
— GBP 10.65 (+147.0%)
Not used: Not chosen: Free-cash-flow DCF ranks ahead of it for this company.

FCFF (steady state)
— GBP 6.22 (+44.4%)
Not used: Assumes only the long-run terminal growth rate from today, so it ignores the near-term growth expected.
-
EV/EBITDA (12x)
— GBP 13.81 (+220.3%)
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.
-
Fade DCF (10-year growth fade)
— GBP 10.52 (+144.1%)
Not used: An alternative growth path (fading over 10 years) shown for comparison; the automatic choice does not use it.

— GBP 39.19 (+809.3%)
Not used: Used only for technology and communication companies whose cash-flow value is far below the price.

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.
At GBP 4.31 the market implies about this annual free-cash-flow growth for 5 years (terminal 2.7%, discount 10.0%).
Compare: the market implies -4.4% a year, this model assumes 14.4%. The model is more optimistic than the price, which is why it reads as undervalued.
