Summary
Applying a 12x P/E to adjusted EPS of $0.75, the base-case value is $9.38 per share. DDM cross-check: $212.89.
Warnings
The company pays out 167% of its profits as dividends. That leaves little cushion — the dividend could be cut if business slows down.
Dividend-based valuation: $212.89 (above our primary estimate by 2171%). 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
