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 $59.86 from 49 analysts, using a 30% weight on analyst consensus. That produces an estimated intrinsic value of $20.18 per share.
Warnings
Stock-based employee pay equals 1696% of profits. This dilutes existing shareholders, so cash flow alone overstates what owners really earn.
Wall Street's average price target is $59.86 (from 49 analysts). Our estimate is 95% below 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
