Looks undervalued
5-year outlook: Not shown because confidence is low: Earnings-based DCF disagrees strongly.
Why: Banks, insurers and other financials are valued on the dividends they pay, not on free cash flow.
Start with the price and fair value range, then review the data dates and assumptions below. Estimates are not predictions or investment advice.
Market price below modeled range
Showing the DCF (trailing free cash flow) you selected on the company card, using 5.48% growth, 2.4% terminal growth and 9.6% discount. The range varies these assumptions slightly; it is illustrative, not investment advice. Low confidence: the modelled value is far from the market price, which usually means the model does not capture this company well (for example expected growth well above its history).
Assumptions: growth 5.48%, discount rate 9.60%, terminal growth 2.40% (sector defaults). See a worked example.
Blended growth assumption: 5.5% (sector default 5.4%, own revenue history 5.6%).

EPS-based Gordon proxy
— GBP 1.17 (-61.8%)

DCF (trailing free cash flow)
— GBP 10.68 (+250.0%)
Not used: Cash-flow models do not suit banks and insurers, whose cash flow is mostly funding and deposits.

Not used: Cash-flow models do not suit banks and insurers, whose cash flow is mostly funding and deposits.

EV/EBITDA (12x)
— GBP 0.87 (-71.6%)
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.

— GBP 10.62 (+248.3%)
Not used: Cash-flow models do not suit banks and insurers, whose cash flow is mostly funding and deposits.

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.
