Plain-Language Summary

Applying a 15x P/E to adjusted EPS of $1.93, the base-case value is $29.01 per share. DDM cross-check: $22.69.

Warnings

The company's reported profits differ from official accounting profits by 74%. Check what costs are being left out of the adjusted number.
The company pays out 123% of its profits as dividends. That leaves little cushion — the dividend could be cut if business slows down.
Dividend-based valuation: $22.69 (below our primary estimate by 22%). 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
