EPS-based Gordon proxy

Market price above modeled range

Showing the EPS-based Gordon proxy you selected on the company card, using 17.65% growth, 3.1% terminal growth and 10.8% discount. The range varies these assumptions slightly; it is illustrative, not investment advice.

Assumptions: growth 17.65%, discount rate 10.80%, terminal growth 3.10% (sector defaults). See a worked example.

Blended growth assumption: 17.6% (sector default 7.2%, own revenue history 12.2%, analyst revenue consensus 25.6%).

5-year outlook: relative outlook of about 7.1% 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 25.6% a year; the growth assumption used is 17.7%.

  • Recommended: Normalised free-cash-flow DCF — USD 22.91 (-68.2%)
  • EPS-based Gordon proxy — USD 30.87 (-57.2%)
    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) — USD 32.75 (-54.6%)
    Not used: Not chosen: Normalised free-cash-flow DCF ranks ahead of it for this company.
  • FCFF (steady state) — USD 16.67 (-76.9%)
    Not used: Assumes only the long-run terminal growth rate from today, so it ignores the near-term growth expected.
  • EV/EBITDA (12x) — USD 3.13 (-95.7%)
    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) — USD 32.31 (-55.2%)
    Not used: An alternative growth path (fading over 10 years) shown for comparison; the automatic choice does not use it.
  • EV/Sales (Rule of 40) — USD 138.50 (+92.1%)
    Not used: Used only for technology and communication companies whose cash-flow value is far below the price.
Illustrative range / share USD 24.27–35.48
Base scenario / share USD 30.87
Margin of safety (share of value) Above the bull case
Bear USD 24.27-197.0%
Base USD 30.87-133.5%
Bull USD 35.48-103.2%

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.
