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 $32.33 from 28 analysts, using a 25% weight on analyst consensus. That produces an estimated intrinsic value of $58.44 per share.

Warnings

The company's reported profits differ from official accounting profits by 88%. Check what costs are being left out of the adjusted number.
Dividend-based valuation: $24.66 (below our primary estimate by 63%). Large gaps may signal the dividend doesn't reflect full earning power.
Wall Street's average price target is $32.33 (from 28 analysts). Our estimate is 108% above the consensus -- consider that gap carefully.

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
