Why: Banks and insurers earn their money on their balance sheet, so value follows book value and how much the company earns on it (return on equity).
Details and the full model are below.
Selected model not applicable
FCFF (steady state) needs inputs this company does not have (for example positive earnings, free cash flow or EBITDA), so it gives no usable value.
Assumptions: growth 11.75%, discount rate 9.60%, terminal growth 2.40% (sector defaults). See a worked example.
Blended growth assumption: 11.8% (sector default 5.4%, own revenue history 35.3%, analyst revenue consensus 3.1%).
5-year outlook: relative outlook of about 11.2% a year (Medium 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 3.2% a year; the growth assumption used is 11.8%.
