Terminal Value % of EV 43%
Implied Market Multiple 16.9x
Market is pricing in (growth) 6.7% vs 15.3% base

Summary

Our base-case estimate uses a two-stage discounted cash flow model based on free cash flow. We then blend that result with the average analyst price target of $13.00 from 33 analysts, using a 30% weight on analyst consensus. That produces an estimated intrinsic value of $18.43 per share.

Warnings

Stock-based employee pay equals 206% of profits. This dilutes existing shareholders, so cash flow alone overstates what owners really earn.
Wall Street's average price target is $13.00 (from 33 analysts). Our estimate is 60% above the consensus -- consider that gap carefully.

Key Risks

  • P/E alone misleads — earnings depressed by growth investment
  • Cyclical or commodity businesses may be misclassified as platforms
  • Terminal value dominance suggests sensitivity to long-run assumptions
