Summary
Our base-case estimate uses a valuation based on adjusted earnings per share and a normalized price-to-earnings multiple. We then blend that result with the average analyst price target of $401.81 from 37 analysts, using a 30% weight on analyst consensus. That produces an estimated intrinsic value of $408.31 per share.
Warnings
Dividend-based valuation: $1072.76 (above our primary estimate by 161%). Large gaps may signal the dividend doesn't reflect full earning power.
Key Risks
- Growth DCF inappropriate — terminal value assumptions dominate
- EV/EBITDA misleading for regulated businesses where capex is mandated
- Regulatory risk is a fat tail not visible in normal multiples
