Relative 5-year outlook–

5-year outlook: Not shown because confidence is low: Earnings-based DCF disagrees strongly.

Why: Latest free cash flow is depressed by heavy investment or one-off items, so a three-year average is used instead.

The range depends on model assumptions and data; it is not a prediction or investment advice.

EV/Sales (Rule of 40)

Market price below modeled range

Showing the EV/Sales (Rule of 40) you selected on the company card, using 3% growth, 2.6% terminal growth and 9.8% discount. The range varies these assumptions slightly; it is illustrative, not investment advice.

Assumptions: growth 3% (limited from 3.34% because the latest annual revenue declined), discount rate 9.80%, terminal growth 2.60%. See a worked example.

Blended growth assumption: 3.3% (sector default 5.8%, own revenue history -10.0%, analyst revenue consensus 8.8%).

Analyst consensus expects revenue growth of 8.8% a year; the growth assumption used is 3.0%.

Compare models
  • Recommended: Normalised free-cash-flow DCF — CHF 68.07 (-7.1%)
  • EPS-based Gordon proxy — CHF 338.95 (+362.7%)
    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) — CHF 39.26 (-46.4%)
    Not used: Free cash flow is only 13% of net income, so a cash-flow model is probably depressed by investment timing.
  • FCFF (steady state) — CHF 38.49 (-47.5%)
    Not used: Free cash flow is only 13% of net income, so a cash-flow model is probably depressed by investment timing.
  • EV/EBITDA (12x) — CHF 51.23 (-30.1%)
    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) — CHF 39.23 (-46.4%)
    Not used: Free cash flow is only 13% of net income, so a cash-flow model is probably depressed by investment timing.
  • EV/Sales (Rule of 40) — CHF 106.37 (+45.2%)
    Not used: Used only for technology and communication companies whose cash-flow value is far below the price.
Illustrative range / share CHF 78.29–134.44

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.
