Plain-Language Summary

Our base-case estimate uses a discounted cash flow model based on revenue growth and long-run free cash flow margins. We then blend that result with the average analyst price target of $24.55 from 13 analysts, using a 20% weight on analyst consensus. That produces an estimated intrinsic value of $19.25 per share.

Warnings

Wall Street's average price target is $24.55 (from 13 analysts). Our estimate is 27% below the consensus -- consider that gap carefully.

Key Risks

  • Current FCF misleads — the model values future margins, not today's cash
  • SBC dilution is the hidden tax: 2-4% annual share growth compounds fast
  • Revenue deceleration is inevitable — the question is when and how steep
